AHCA, along with guest speakers, has been hosting an ongoing webinar series event this year on the new emergency preparedness final rule impacting skilled nursing facilities (SNFs), nursing facilities (NFs) and intermediate care facilities for individuals with intellectual disabilities (ICF/IID).

This final rule is not applicable to assisted living (AL) providers. The rule was released on Friday, September 16, 2016, and can be found here. 

Providers will need to be in compliance by November 15, 2017.

The final webinar of the series for this year, entitled "Emergency Preparedness Requirements - Part IV", will occur on November 21, 2017.

On Tuesday, November 21, from 2 – 3 PM EST, guest speakers Sarah Baker, Programs Manager from Healthcare Ready and Nicolette A. Louissaint, Ph.D. Executive Director of Healthcare Ready and AHCA will host a webinar on the new emergency preparedness final rule.

The webinar will include an overview of Healthcare Ready and resources available to members, an update on this past hurricane season and best practices learned, and a review of components of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services' (CMS) emergency preparedness rule.
