HealthStream works with skilled nursing and long-term care facilities to address a multitude of challenges, from keeping pace with regulatory requirements to engaging and developing competent staff that can satisfy the demands of increased resident complexity. Be confident in your survey readiness and quality management while developing competent staff.
Nursing homes and skilled care facilities that continue to excel are those that treat residents as people worthy of respect, regardless of medical condition or funding source—and regardless of the pressures felt by staff.
There is a long list of challenges facing skilled and long-term care (LTC) providers. Turnover rates for clinical care in nursing homes range from 55-75%, with rates among Certified Nurse Assistants (CNAs) approaching 100% in some areas.
With consistent wage pressures, shifting compliance regulations, and rising acuity levels among resident populations, the skilled nursing and LTC workforce is feeling more pressure than ever before.
HealthStream provides the necessary tools to face these challenges head-on and ensure future success. From standardized training and closing competency gaps to improved quality of care and reduction of staff turnover, HealthStream has multiple programs to assist in meeting a facility’s goals so they can focus on the care and dignity of their vulnerable, yet valued, patients and residents.
