Description

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) has updated regulations and guidance concerning the unnecessary use of psychotropic medications (F758) by integrating them into F605. This revision is intended to streamline the survey process, enhance consistency, and underscore the importance of preventing the unnecessary administration of psychotropic drugs in healthcare facilities. In this session, we will carefully examine these changes and their implications for your facility. Participants will gain valuable insights on implementation strategies to ensure their current practices are aligned with the updated guidelines.

Objectives:

• Understand the revisions to chemical restraints and unnecessary psychotropic medications.
• Learn implementation strategies for successful outcomes during the annual survey and certification.
