Marilyn Mines, RN, BS, RAC-CT, FR&R Healthcare Consulting, Inc. Track SS Admission to a SNF as a Medicare resident can bring with it many choices for a beneficiary. Once the SNF has determined if they meet all eligibility criteria, the resident and family may not know the many choices available to the resident. Is the Medicare program currently in place the best for this resident? Choices between Medicare Advantage or traditional Medicare coverage, palliative care under the original Medicare benefit or Medicare hospice coverage may require explanation. This session will provide the attendees with the tools to assist residents and their families in understanding the differences between the various Medicare programs to make the most appropriate choice. Proper Repairs for K-Tag Deficiencies Ensuring Life Safety Code Compliance Joe Wiener, CDT, AIA, NCARB, Farnsworth Group Track ENV Typical plans of correction include repairs to the physical plant.

The CNA’s Role in Abuse Prevention Susan Gardiner, BSN, RN, LNHA, Illinois Council on Long Term Care Track CNA, NUR In the past several years there has been increased attention placed on allegations of abuse, neglect and misappropriation of property in long term care.

This session will review all abuse regulations, the CNA’s responsibility and coping mechanisms CNAs can use to reduce stress.

It’s Not My Responsibility...Is It? Critical Thinking Skills for Facility Professionals Diana Waugh, RN, BSN, Waugh Consulting Track NUR CliCk here to register online TUESDAY “You think I should have done what?” “You are just being picky.” “I can’t be responsible for everything!” “I am leading!!” Sometimes it seems that the responsibilities of leading are just confusing.

Through the use of real life examples relating to readmissions, attendees will learn to address and support their actions. Positive Leadership for Today’s Generations Khrys Kantarze, BS, MA, LNHA, Maun-Lemke Speaking & Consulting, LLC Track MULTI Times have changed. Leaders of today’s healthcare workers are faced with the challenge of motivating people with a variety of backgrounds. From the new graduates of today to the Baby Boomers -- figuring out how to motivate and educate effectively with the diversity of today’s workforce can be difficult. This dynamic and entertaining session will teach you the important differences and strategies to maximize your effectiveness with all groups. Hot Topics in Employment Law Jon Zimring, JD, Duane Morris LLP Track ADM The laws governing the employment relationship are continually evolving and changing. Employers need to be alert to these changes and effectively train supervisors and managers on how to reduce the risk of employment liability. This session will address hot topics surrounding both federal and state laws and legal decisions that affect how Illinois employers in the long term care profession should be conducting both their human resources and/or labor relations practices to stay on the right side of the law. But DSPs Don’t Chart: Effective Documentation Strategies for ID/DD Facilities Jason Lundy, JD, Polsinelli Shughart PC Laura Kelly, BS, LTC Support Services Track DD 3:30 – 5 p.m. (1.5 CEs) While DSPs are the life-blood of an ID/DD facility, they do not extensively chart about residents’ conditions. That does not stop the Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) from expecting documentation. This session will discuss DSPs’ responsibilities to document and when and how to chart effectively.
