The Georgia Skilled Nursing Services Policy Manual provides a comprehensive framework for agencies delivering skilled nursing care to individuals in need of medical support in Georgia. This manual aligns with the Georgia Department of Community Health (DCH) regulations, the Rules and Regulations for Private Home Care Providers (Chapter 290-5-54), Medicaid and Medicare Conditions of Participation (42 CFR Part 484), and other applicable state and federal standards, ensuring full compliance with licensing, clinical care, and documentation requirements. The manual includes policies on licensure and certification, patient assessments, development and implementation of individualized care plans, medication administration, infection control protocols, client rights, staff qualifications and training, emergency preparedness, clinical documentation standards, and quality assurance measures. It emphasizes adherence to evidence-based practices for skilled nursing care and compliance with Medicaid waiver programs such as the Elderly and Disabled Waiver Program (EDWP) and the Community Care Services Program (CCSP). This policy manual serves as a critical resource for agencies to ensure the delivery of high-quality, patient centered skilled nursing services aimed at promoting health, safety, and independence.
