The current Covid-19 Pandemic was a catalyst for many acute care hospitals, already contemplating changes to their Case Management Departments to forge ahead and plan how they can transform the theory of Hospital Case Management change into practice. The presentation will review the CMSA case for change and a hospital systems’ steps to implement the process.
Objectives:
Describe the key elements of a patient centered plan of care.
List the reasons that change is necessary during a pandemic
Identify the Principles and the CMSA Standards Practice that guide the change.
