How to Write a Kick-Ass Plan of Correction - Online 4 CEU Course is the only online course approved by CDPHE and instructed by the only trainer with Colorado home care agency regulations and operations experience. This course provides 4 CEUs towards ongoing training for Agency Managers & Administrators in Colorado.

Plan of Correction. This is a unique concept that I hadn’t seen outside of healthcare before.  

A well-functioning plan of correction process is critical for a home care company to be able to properly respond to CDPHE and ensure the agency remains in compliance after survey. 

In this course we look at the actual CDPHE regulations and discuss what is required when writing and implementing a plan of correction as required when the agency receives a deficiency after a recertification or complaint survey. 

Our goal for the course is to provide an in-depth look at completing a Plan of Correction as required by CDPHE. This includes a step by-step overview of the POC components and actual home care approved POCs.

Also, you receive a step-by-step guide to develop your very own ‘kick-ass’ plan of correction worksheet so you are locked and loaded when it comes time after your next survey. 

Last is where the rubber meets the road. We look at actual deficiencies cited for home care companies. We look at the issue that was identified, discuss the timeline for the POC process, and then complete an approved POC for the deficiency! 

These experiences from years and years of completing countless plans of correction have helped to put together a course to save you hours of time and energy to get the essentials of the POC.

How to Write a Kick-Ass Plan of Correction consists of 2 video modules, entitled: From Deficiency to Approved POC! and Home Care POC Examples. Each module contains valuable, real-world experience content learned from years of training home care offices as a home care corporate consultant, as well as an Agency Manager receiving hundreds of monthly client inquiries.  

In Module 1: From Deficiency to Approved POC!, in this module we look at the process for putting together a plan of correction by following CDPHE guidelines after a home care agency receives a deficiency from a recertification or complaint survey. Next, we take a step-by-step approach to each of the 5 components of a successful plan of correction. Then, we look at what happens after the POC is completed and submitted to CDPHE for getting it approved and on the road back to being put back in compliance.

In this module we look at the origin of quality management in the U.S. and healthcare. We discuss the development of Chapter 2 and 26 regulations over time that outlined the QMP requirement and how to interpret the regs for your agency. Then, we look at the current regulations for QMP and expectations from CDPHE for policies and procedures and documentation for the program.

Module 2 is Home Care POC Examples. In this module we review the top 10 deficiencies issued to home care agencies over the last 12 months. Next, we look at an actual deficiency, Personnel License Check, and work through putting together a plan of correction. Then, we take a look at another deficiency example, received for the quality management program, and put together a successful plan of correction. Last, we review one final deficiency example, personnel record content, a complete a plan of correction.

First, this course is CDPHE approved and The Business of Senior Care is a CDPHE approved training company. Second, no other trainer has had the actual experiences of running a home care agency in Colorado.

How is your company unique? The Business of Senior Care aims to achieve two goals for clients: to understand the regulations facing home care agencies in Colorado and being a resource to drive growth for home care operators.  Having these two unique goals is fundamental when developing course content and continually asking myself, “How will this help home care agencies grow?”  I believe there are always opportunities to earn more clients and more billable hours, including with understanding regulations and the impact on your agency.

Have you provided training or consulting before? I have already helped numerous home care agencies in Colorado with the fundamentals of regulations for both Class A and Class B licensure.  Additionally, I worked at the Corporate Office for Home Instead Senior Care for many years helping home care owners open theirs doors, market services, recruit new clients, hire staff and grow their business.  I have been doing consulting for home care companies for more than a decade and continue to be passionate about this fast growing industry.

Do I offer other trainings in order to get all my CEUs from your company? A common request is for an Agency Manager or Administrator to want to complete all required credits during the year from 1 company.  The Business of Senior Care is continuing to develop new and innovative content with the goal of being the 1 stop shop for Agency Managers and Administrators.  With new content continuing to come out it will soon be possible to take any and all required courses from us!
