Staffing to Meet the Demands of PDGM | Axxess
Summary
For agencies to successfully move forward in the PDGM system, they must be diligent in forecasting, planning and preparing to meet the unique staffing demands that will come with the new payment model. The volume of documentation required with the completion of an OASIS assessment directly impacts a nurse’s decision to remain in home health. Due to the strictly regulated environment of home health, it takes many hours to train a nurse to perform the job competently, accurately, creatively, and safely. A staffing solution like AxxessCARE helps by connecting agencies using Axxess software with qualified clinicians to provide timely care. In addition to the PDGM resources available, Axxess is also hosting seminars nationwide to train home health staff members how to operate efficiently.
