Course Curriculum: This session will review the major changes in the home health conditions of participation (CoPs). The entire philosophy has changed, effectively putting the patient in an active rather than a passive role. Having patient centered CoPs does entail the clinician and home health agency to understand and be compliant during the entire home health admission and not just at the admission. This is evident in the patient rights condition that we will review in detail. Many agencies are still struggling with documentation and understanding in this area. And we will review the organization/ administration and personnel conditions to highlight those changes Georgia Hospital Association is an approved provider of continuing nursing education by the Alabama State Nurses Association, an accredited approver by the American Nurses Credentialing Center’s Commission on Accreditation.
