CareSite Ops
The Monday morning watch list
A regional director of a 14-building nursing home group
A regional director spends 15 minutes every Monday to pick the two buildings that need a visit this week.
The problem
Inspection results, fines, star ratings and staffing reports arrive from CMS on different schedules. By the time a problem reaches the corporate office, a surveyor may already be on the way.
The work
On CareSite Ops, starting from My buildings:
- Monthly changes. Which buildings' stars or scores moved since last month.
- New fines and citations. One building with a new citation for not enough nursing staff.
- Low scores + thin staffing. The same building again, plus a second one close to the line.
- Weather and your buildings. A heat warning over the second building's county for the next three days.
- Comps around a home. The flagged building next to nearby competitors on staffing and stars.
The decision
The clinical lead visits the first building on Tuesday. The director calls the second building's administrator about the heat plan and extra staff.
Why it matters
A problem caught on Monday is a phone call. A problem caught at the next inspection is a fine.
