Trauma-Informed Care and Behavioral Health Services: Assessing Compliance in Activities and Quality of Life (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781089678922)

The new Federal regulations for F675 Quality of Life and F679 Activities challenge long-term care facilities to create environments and lifestyles that look more intimately at the needs of individuals. While the expectation that community life will include therapeutic activity programming and services to support the physical, mental, and psychosocial well-being of each resident, the intent of these regulations suggests the broader goal of, "creating opportunities for each resident to have a meaningful life by supporting his/her domains of wellness (security, autonomy, growth, connectedness, identity, joy and meaning)." This resource guide is designed to assist the interdisciplinary team in understanding the full scope of responsibility under the regulations for Trauma-Informed Care and Behavioral Health Services as applicable to quality of life and therapeutic activity. Each section offers an overview of the regulatory requirements, highlights on how to interpret the intent of the requirement, and the steps the team will want to focus on to evaluate compliance and identify areas in need of review and potential revision.
