Join us for the highly anticipated "CMS Hospital Restraint and Seclusion Webinar" where we delve into the critical area that has become a hot spot for both CMS and the Joint Commission. Hospitals face frequent citations for non-compliance, with the number one area of deficiencies lying in the specific requirement regarding restraints within the CMS Conditions of Participation (CoP).
CMS provides extensive guidance on restraint and seclusion, spanning a comprehensive fifty pages of interpretive guidelines specifically tailored for hospitals. Regardless of accreditation status—be it Joint Commission, HFAP, CIHQ, or DNV Healthcare—all hospitals accepting Medicare patients must adhere to these interpretive guidelines.
It is imperative that any physician or provider who issues restraint orders receives training on the hospital's policy. Both CMS and the Joint Commission mandate that hospital staff undergo annual education on restraint and seclusion interpretive guidelines.
Lastly, our webinar will comprehensively cover The Joint Commission's standards on restraint and seclusion, which closely align with the CMS Conditions of Participation. Don't miss this opportunity to gain invaluable insights into the most problematic standards in the restraint section and ensure compliance with both CMS and the Joint Commission.
