What this means is hospitals will be be under increased pressure to direct sicker patients to skilled nursing facilities. Is your clinical capability ready for this? Access to timely lab, including the ability to test for symptoms of conditions like Sepsis quickly and on-site will make your facility more equipped compete in this market. Nursing Homes have to adapt their model. Many of the methods of staffing and care have not changed for decades, and this will leave the less innovative facilities out in the cold as incentives move more to awarding the treatment of high acuity patients.
