1. “Patient Focused”
How much more of a “patient-focused” setting can there be than home health? Yet clinicians often miss opportunities to speak to specifics in their documentation. This is not just a suggestion as it is required in the Conditions of Participation. Repeated checking of boxes on a form will not meet these expectations. This chapter will outline how the Conditions of Participation address the need to be patient focused, and will provide strategies for compliance.
2. ICF in Home Health
Creating documentation that is patient focused is not about making a better checklist within each note but about seeing the big picture when approaching each encounter. The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) model can provide a framework to assist clinicians in documenting patient-focused concepts. This chapter will provide an overview of the ICF model and its applicability in the home health setting.
3. Getting Back to Basics: Subjective Information
Use of the SOAP note in its traditional form may not be clearly seen in many of the home health documentation tools, but the principles remain. With all of the other requirements that must be met on every note, subjective details can be overlooked. This chapter will examine strategies for collecting and documenting meaningful subjective information.
