Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Nursing Facility Systems Series – Part 4: Admission/Discharge Planning
Q: What tools or resources does AAPACN offer to support stronger admission and discharge systems?
AAPACN offers tools such as the pre-admission screening tool, the admission checklist Seed to Success, medical record audit for new admissions, the discharge process checklist, and other resources available on their website to standardize and strengthen the entire process.
Nursing Facility Systems Series – Part 4: Admission/Discharge Planning
Q: Great insights. What is one practical change a facility could make now to strengthen continuity from referral through discharge?
A practical change would be to make transition planning a standing part of the facility's interdisciplinary clinical meeting, routinely discussing the resident's anticipated transition, current barriers and required actions from referral onward.
Nursing Facility Systems Series – Part 4: Admission/Discharge Planning
Q: Lauren, how soon should discharge planning begin and how can the interdisciplinary team incorporate it into routine care planning?
Discharge planning should begin before or at admission and continue throughout the resident's stay; it should be part of routine care planning with early identification of goals, potential barriers, and ongoing discussion in regular care plan meetings.
Nursing Facility Systems Series – Part 2: Weight Management
Q: If a DNS wants to strengthen their program in 90 days, what three high-impact changes should they prioritize?
Standardize weight collection across all residents, establish a consistent interdisciplinary review process for weight changes, and start trending data to identify patterns that indicate systemic issues before they impact more residents.
Nursing Facility Systems Series – Part 2: Weight Management
Q: What are the essential components of a strong facility-wide weight management system and where do organizations most often fall short?
The system must start with accurate baseline weights, consistent weighing, quick identification of significant changes, and then a structured, interdisciplinary response that includes nursing, dietary, therapy, provider care, pharmacy, and possibly activities, all working from a common workflow.
