Maximizing Partnerships to Reduce Rehospitalizations

Maintaining census is critical to an organization's success. Learn how your therapy and pharmacy teams can assist and support you to prevent rehospitalizations through patient-centered interventions. Regardless of your vendor partners, you will be able to identify key strategies that your teams can utilize to reduce risk for readmissions and promote successful transitions of care.
  • Discuss rehospitalization and its impact on the skilled nursing/long-term care environment.
  • Describe comprehensive strategies to reduce recidivism in the LTC setting.
  • Identify benefits of an interdisciplinary team approach, especially with vendors.
