New DON help with survey

Rating:
(votes: 0)


Im a New DON at a LTC facility in Missouri and we are expecting our Survey soon. I am wondering if anyone can offer advice or a web-site that can give Tips in preparing for this. I enjoy my job tremendously and have not had the opportunity to work through a survey.
I am determined to do well and to prove that they have chosen the right person for this position.
I am looking for any forms or any help in knowing exactly what they are looking for, and also something to help me in completing my 802.
I would post your question in Nursing Specialties. There's a section just for DON / ADON'S. They might be better to help. Or get you a quicker response. These are my thoughts use them as you wish..

Does anyone in corporate office wish to provide you with a source of information specific to your state's laws?- Oh....and do you have a copy of the prior survey results?

Comment:
each agency does a different type of survey, and each year they focus on different things. Do you know anyone in your area or region that has a similar facility with the same agency that may have already had this years survey? I know some years the Joint Com looks at very different things, but they seem to hit those things in every place they survey. also doing mock surveys of your facility is a great way to prepare.

I'm in Ohio so not sure what is different. I have also had trouble with the 802 since we switched to 3.0 because our software doesn't automatically complete it for me anymore. I started out with a blank form and just went through and completed it once ( which did take a long time) After that I just kept it updated with each new admission and with stand up each morning with any new orders/falls etc...... We had survey last week and ended up with 2 minor cites.
