Initially we had difficulty obtaining his discharge orders as the hospital care manager replied she had forwarded the documentation, but neither I nor Mrs. Bianco had received a copy. Mrs. Bianco made a visit to Mills Creek and met with Mr. Smith at that time she was made aware of an appointment that Mr. Smith attended. Mr. Smith attended a physician appointment on June 28, 2017 with Dr. Leonard, Orthopedic trauma. Mills Creek assisted with the transportation and a mobile x-ray unit was coordinated to obtain x-rays of the femur at the facility as Mr. Smith didn’t bring his slide board to the appointment and couldn’t get onto the radiology table.

Nursing staff from Care Unlimited Home Health come to the house every day to check his blood sugar, check his blood pressure, and administer insulin as ordered.

This noncompliant behavior to treatment poses a high risk for complications from poorly controlled diabetes.

Current pending policy in the 114th United States’ Congress includes the Home Health Care Planning Improvement Act (ANA). This legislation advocates changing the current Medicare conditions of participation, by granting authority to Advanced Practice Registered Nurses (APRNs) to certify plans of care for home health patients. If written into law, Advanced Practice Registered Nurses that would be able to certify home health services would include nurse practitioners, certified nurse mid-wives and clinical nurse leaders. In addition, this designation would also give physician assistants access to the same authority (ANA).

NHHCS stands for National Home and Hospice Care Survey. This survey is designed to gather information on home health and hospice agencies, their services, their patients, and their staff.

Of those agencies 75% only provided home health care, 15% only provided hospice care, and 10% offered both services. The average home health care only agency served 109 patients.

The Home Health Care Planning Improvement Act of 2015 (H.R. 1342 & S. 578) would allow advanced practice registered nurses (APRNs), including clinical nurse specialists, physician assistants, and nurse practitioners to be able to order home health care services under Medicare. (Senators Collins & Schumer, 2015) Many of the elderly live in urban or rural areas that do not always have access to physicians. This act would make it easier for them to receive care and treatment they need because the APRNs would be able to sign care plans and patients would receive their care and prescriptions faster without having to wait for a doctor’s approval or signature. This act is basically an amendment to Title XVIII (Medicare) of the Social Security Act.
