Accident Prevention and Resident Supervision: Preparing Your SNF for F-Tag 323  

Dianne Brown

According to the new guidance in F323, resident environments must remain as free of accident hazards as possible. Areas of particular concern are resident supervision, hazard identification, resident risk, falls, unsafe wandering/elopement, environmental assessment of hazards, and resident-to-resident altercations. Keep on top of the new changes and avoid citations. This step-by-step guide provides advice, analysis, and care plans, with an emphasis on curbing avoidable accidents.
