Handbook of Home Health Standards, Marrelli red book, staff education, OASIS, care planning, successful career in home health

The Handbook of Home Health Standards “red book” is an essential tool needed in home health for effective daily operations. From a practice and management perspective, it provides a strong foundation for training new team members as well as provides a reference for other team members in home health. The format has been especially designed as a quick “go to” references guide for home health nurses, therapists and other team members to create a plan of care as well as information for the education of the patients and caregivers. When the standards are followed, documentation is compliant and reimbursable and patients receive quality care. This red book makes the complex understandable. Many struggle with writing an effective plan of care and setting goals, such as for heart failure or diabetes and related teaching, this Handbook makes this process understandable and achievable for busy clinicians.
