Client Facility Outcomes
Operating a long-term care facility is a challenging task. It is a skillful balancing act between providing excellent care and operating a successful business. We know and understand this very well because several of our key team members are former Administrators, DON's and owners and operators of post-acute and long-term care facilities. You have to contend with issues relating to patient care, staffing, regulatory compliance and family satisfaction all day, every day.
General Medicine helps to relieve some of the pressure. We support your staff by providing clinicians with special expertise in geriatrics, physical medicine and rehabilitation, behavioral health and various other medical services for post-acute and long-term care residents. Together, we provide optimal care for your residents and enhance the operating and financial performance of your facility.
Because we continually monitor services to ensure compliance with all regulations and standards, our clinicians also can help improve your patient care documentation and compliance with OBRA and state regulations.
As a result of working with our clinicians, our partner facilities see positive outcomes in a number of areas, including:
- Increased census
- Greater resident, family, staff and referral source satisfaction
- Ability to care for more medically complex residents
- Increased reimbursement and profitability
- Lower hospital readmissions
- Fewer resident visits to the ER
- Improved compliance with drug formulary
- Reduced drug expense
- Reduced staff turnover
- Improved MDS documentation
- Improved OBRA compliance and survey results
