Feeling lost in 918 pages of new survey guidance? We’ll help you find your way.

The newly revised Long-Term Care Surveyor Guidance (QSO-25-14-NH) weighs in at 918 pages. No, that’s not a typo — and no, you probably don’t have time to read it cover to cover!

That’s where we come in. This free webinar is your practical guide to navigating the key changes.

The updated guidance, which took effect April 28, 2025, revises many aspects of the survey process, including how substandard quality of care is assessed. Updates span a wide range of topics and tags: Admission, Transfers and Discharge, Resident Assessment, Quality of Life, Quality of Care, and more.

We’ll highlight what matters most, review updates to the Critical Element Pathways, and show how to integrate these changes into your daily operations. Whether you’re focused on clinical care, compliance, or reimbursement, this session will help you chart a clear course forward — and answer the all-important question: Where do I start?

What You’ll Learn:

  • How to navigate recent updates to Appendix PP and the Critical Element Pathways
  • Which key changes impact Admission, Transfers and Discharge, Resident Assessment, Quality of Life, and Quality of Care
  • How to apply these changes to improve care planning and support successful discharges
  • What works (and what doesn’t) when integrating the new guidance into clinical operations and workflow
