For acquiring a state licensed HHA, you will need all the policies and procedures to successfully pass the licensing survey.  The same holds true for your national accreditation as well as the Medicare CMS Deem Status.  This policy manual references the Joint Commission specific policies to their national standards, but, it can also be used for CHAP.  The same regulations hold true for both agencies.  For you, purchasing this policy manual is the best decision you can make.  It will hold true for decades for you to use and implement for the quality of your patients and the integrity of your company.  Our past clients love our policies, and we are sure you will too.
