The survey is finished and now it’s time to focus on the PoC. This presentation will take your agency through the next steps based on the preliminary survey findings, what is required after receiving your PoC, and where to begin with a post-survey corrective action plan and process. It will address the resources required to write and implement action items on the PoC and the critical steps an agency must take, including education, timeframes, potential auditing, establishing measurable goals, and ongoing QA. In addition, it will cover ongoing quality improvement activities agencies should use to ensure sustained excellence in care. Learn how to prepare your agency for a resurvey if condition-level deficiencies require it. This program will help agencies turn their nerves into effective, doable, and focused corrective action items for a positive survey outcome.

Preventing and eliminating sexual harassment is everyone’s responsibility. This webinar will identify how sexual harassment may occur in your agency and how the victim and/or witnesses should respond to potential or actual events, including leadership’s response to reported sexual harassment.

Guidance for the New Volunteer Manager Part 2: Policies, Procedures & the Volunteer File

08/07/2025

3:00 pm

Webinars

Part 2 of this two-part series for the new volunteer manager will take an in-depth look at the policies and procedures that should be in place to facilitate optimal program functioning and oversight. Policies need to provide guidance but not be so restrictive that volunteers are unable to provide a wide range of services. Restrictive policies also interfere with the ability to meet the 5% requirement and stand in the way of contributing to high quality patient/family care. In addition, this program will address the essential contents of a volunteer’s file. A complete and comprehensive file is essential. It can help volunteer managers sail through a survey (if/when that occurs) and enhance their understanding of the true nature of high-quality volunteer management.
