QM Survival and Rescue Bundle

The QM Survival Guide and the QM Rescue Guide bundle includes two comprehensive resources to support a facility’s Quality Measures (QMs). With the QM Survival Guide, the QM point-person is equipped with an in-depth resource for all QMs and tools to audit the MDS for accuracy. Once the MDS is determined to be accurate, the QM Rescue Guide helps the team identify the root cause and clinical systems to make improvements.
