NHQI Workshops and Clinical Resources
CFMC provides quality improvement information
and support as part of CMS' national Nursing Home Quality Initiative (NHQI).
Although the current focus is on the following four clinical topics:
Pressure Ulcers, Chronic Pain, Physical Restraints, and Depression; CFMC
is able to provide information for all the clinical topics represented
in the quality measures. Contact CFMC for more information or click on a

Most workshop materials are available online. You can also order binders with all the
information above plus case studies, recommended
bibliography and guidelines, annotated resource list, checklists for
quality improvement, and more.
