SUCCESS STORIES
Giving Residents a Voice in Their Care Makes All the Difference
abaqis quality management system tells staff what they don’t know
By Linda Patton
OUR HEALTHCARE FACILITY
M
anor Court is a highly rated
50-bed skilled nursing facility
with attentive staff to meet
each resident’s individual needs. Manor
Court is part of a comprehensive senior
community called Liberty Village of
Peoria. The community offers Bounce
Back Rehabilitation, AJ’s Fitness Center,
Garden Court Alzheimer’s and dementia
care, Estates Retirement Apartments, and
Hawthorne Inn Assisted Living.
Manor Court is staffed by 24-hour
licensed nursing professionals who
monitor each resident’s medical, mental
and emotional needs and are dedicated
to providing an exceptional quality of life
to every resident. We maintain excellent
resident to staff ratios of about 10 to 1
that enable us to provide more personal,
resident-centered care.
Manor Court has been awarded a 4-star
overall rating by The Centers for Medicare
and Medicaid Services (CMS), which places
it among the better 60–80% of nursing
homes in Illinois. We also received 4 stars
for health inspections, quality measures
and nursing staffing for RNs only.
To underscore our attention to
providing the highest quality of care,
we’re proud to report that actual patients
and family members of our facilities have
rated Manor Court 5 out of 5 stars on the
local Nursing-Homes.com website.
OUR CHALLENGE
The state of Illinois is gradually moving
to the new Quality Indicator Survey (QIS),
which is based on more resident input and
is intended to be more consistent and less
subjective compared to the traditional
state survey. QIS encourages providers
of skilled nursing facilities to interview
residents and family members and solicit
feedback about their satisfaction with the
care they are receiving.
SIMPLE FIXES
they were available.
Manor Court, based in Peoria, Ill., is a
highly rated skilled nursing facility
that is one of only four nursing centers
to receive the 2014 Embracing Quality
Award from Providigm in the three
areas of Customer Satisfaction,
Prevention of Hospital Readmissions
and Deficiency-Free Survey.
Given this more person-centered
survey approach, our nursing facility
did not have a comprehensive quality
assurance system that measured our
quality of care or identified residents’
needs as in-depth or as quickly as we
would like. While we received good
scores from past surveys, we needed help
in specific areas such as quality of life and
resident choices.
We also needed a way to help us
track and monitor our readmissions
back to the hospitals. With avoidable
readmissions a major focus of our
hospital partners, we needed to do a
better job of reducing our rates.
THE SOLUTION
About two years ago, our support
services team learned about a new
patient-centered quality management
system called abaqis® from Medline, our
medical supply company.
One of the clear benefits of abaqis
is that it helps us prepare for the state
survey like no other system because it
nearly replicates the QIS survey. And
while Illinois still uses the traditional
survey, the current survey is adding
more elements of the QIS. Even more
importantly, abaqis has helped us change
our mindset so that we are adjusting
our activities to fit with our residents’
schedules rather than the other way
around. It helped us move away from
our rigid schedule, where everyone had
to get up at the same time, eat in the
same place, go to bed at the same time
and so on.
With abaqis, the staff interviews
residents on a regular basis to find out
what they like or don’t like about their
quality of life and choices provided to
them. These interviews give our staff
the opportunity to tell the residents in
person that they have flexibility in their
schedules. They can have breakfast
in bed rather than the dining room.
They can sleep until 9 or 10 rather than
getting up all together at 7.
This new flexible schedule makes our
staff think more about how these choices
impact our residents’ happiness and
less about how the choices affect their
job. This switch has made the staff more
sensitive to the needs of our residents.
As a result, our residents are happier
with their quality of life, and our staff is
better at what they do and more satisfied
with their jobs.

of how our facility works beyond just
their specific areas.

options all along, but they didn’t know
For instance, residents wanted more
weekend and evening activities, which
we offered, but we did a poor job of
communicating our schedule. We even
serve banana splits on some afternoons,
but many residents didn’t know it.
Now we talk more with our residents
in the morning to let them know what
activities are offered that day and publish
newsletters for families so they are more
aware of everything going on in the
facility so they can talk with their loved
ones about planning their activities.
The interviews are conducted quarterly,
and each time I add a new department
so our entire staff is engaged in the
process. Getting everyone involved with
the interviews shows our staff that all
departments in our facility have to mesh
together to improve quality and provide
well-rounded care for our residents. This
In our first state survey after using
abaqis, we were deficiency free – no
citations – which made us very proud.
What this tells me is that when surveyors
talked with our residents and their
families, if they had a problem, we had
already learned about it and had taken
care of it. This has really empowered
our staff. They feel they are involved in
the process and not just taking orders
from administration. Similarly, residents
also feel they are in control of their own
schedules and routines.
HELP REDUCE READMISSIONS
For the past nine months we have also
used the abaqis readmissions tracker to
help us better understand why some of
our residents are being readmitted to the
hospital within 30-days of discharge to
our facility.
We get a weekly report from abaqis that
helps us develop our rates and identifies
trends on why the readmissions may be
occurring. From January through April
our rate was 13 percent. Since preventing
avoidable readmissions is so important
to our local hospitals, our marketing
director takes the reports to the hospitals
to show them our low readmission rates
and to underscore what a good partner we
are in taking care of their patients when
they come to our facilities.
The reports tell us key data, such as
what day and time the patient left our
facility, what their initial diagnosis
was when they were admitted to our
facility and their diagnosis when they
were readmitted to the hospital, who
the on-call or primary care physician
was, who the nurse was, how many days
had lapsed from being admitted to our
facility, and the five areas that triggered
the readmission penalty.
If there is a readmission, this
information may help shed light on why
it occurred and identify what changes to
make so it does not occur in the future.
For instance, if the readmission occurred
on the weekend, which many do, it may
be because the on-call physician or the
weekend staff did not know the resident
very well and was not familiar with his/
her health tendencies.
In recognition of our quality
achievements, Providigm, the developers
of abaqis, presented us with the 2014
Embracing Quality Award for our
outstanding commitment to quality. We
were also one of only four nursing centers
that received awards in all three areas:
of Customer Satisfaction, Prevention of
Hospital Readmissions, and DeficiencyFree Survey.
