The changes brought by PDPM have allowed us - or forced us - to use groups in our treatment plans. Why should we? Why shouldn't we? Are groups a threat to our patient's care? Or an opportunity to use a vital piece of what drives us as humans to better serve older adults?
Join Nicole & Tali as they discuss some helpful tips when thinking about group therapy:
The W's of planning a group
WHO is this group for? (specific pts OR population to be served)
