Description: "Written for health care administrators, medical directors, nursing executives, architects, and facility planners, Adding Value to Long-Term Care is a resource that provides the tools and information needed to improve the clinical environment for residents, staff, and families; strengthen overall business operations; and secure a facility's financial future. This book and companion disk are filled with advice, checklists, and easily reproducible forms - tools for effective business and clinical planning." "Authors Dianne Lazer and Tobi L. Schwartz-Cassell present a comprehensive approach - The Value System - that will help to improve the structure of residents' days with a new model of programming, reenergize staff training and motivation, revitalize staff so they can engage productively with residents' families, and improve compliance with regulatory demands."--Jacket.
