Since staff education is only part of your role, Beacon Health has created the Home Health Competency Management System: A Toolkit for Validation and Assessment to save you the time and hassle of measuring and documenting the skills of your clinicians and aides. The system provides competency management program tips and detailed skill and performance assessments for nursing, therapy, and home health aides, as well as general skills that all clinicians should practice. Follow this blueprint of what competencies you need to assess and how best to assess them and you will ensure regulatory compliance and employ staff who demonstrate their professional aptitude and embody your high standards for patients and family members. Assess competencies throughout the year and use the contents to design an orientation program for your new hires. Purchase the entire system for $349 or any of the four individual sections for $99 apiece. As an added bonus, when you purchase the complete system, you will receive a free update with new competencies in fall 2012 to keep your program fresh!
