IDPH has surpassed the 180 days they were given to make a decision on adding 11 additional conditions to the MCPP! Leaving patients and caregivers in the dark is unethical! #ApproveThe11

Wow, a good investigator makes all the difference in the world.
Tip: send in a written form to intake. Make sure you have intake read back the draft they will submit for accuracy before the investigation.
I feel like it is far easier to investigate data: records, procedures, instructions on how things work, and statements based on solid evidence rather than getting verbal confirmation about events that happened but were never noted.
Simple witness statements are usually not enough to go on.
Also, if something happens to multiple residents as a pattern of the home’s management, it makes for a more in-​depth investigation.
