Widely used for over a decade by providers committed to ensuring high-quality care, the latest edition of the LeadingAge Clinical Procedure Manual (CPM), is available for purchase.
Trusted by practitioners for its breadth and depth, the CPM covers a wide range of procedures that providers in home health, hospice and other settings deliver every day, from activities of daily living to clinical tasks to safety and wound care.
““The CPM is the backbone of clinical practice,” said Kate Rolf, president and CEO, Nascentia Health. “Regulations, best practices, and technologies are not static; this handbook helps us stay abreast of that change. Our staff, who work in communities large and small, rural and urban, depend on it as they would a trusted colleague. It’s a worthwhile investment.”
Based on the latest professional guidelines, the two-volume CPM delivers up-to-date clinical procedures across 20 sections covering topics ranging from behavioral health, medications, and wound care to activities of daily living and pediatric care. Providers depend on it to ensure the consistent application of evidence and reliable performance of procedures by every clinician, every time.
The 22nd edition, which has been reviewed by contributing editors representing a diverse, interdisciplinary group of professionals, integrates recommended tools directly into procedures and emphasizes client and family education. It details step-by-step methods, for over 300 clinical procedures, augmented by critical thinking prompts and follow-up suggestions specific to each procedure. New this year: a special focus on infection control and the use of personal protective equipment.
“Providers committed to delivering best-in-class care need a reliable guide. The Clinical Procedure Manual’s origins are deeply rooted in home health and hospice settings, and, over two decades, its reputation and influence has spread. We’re proud to offer this newest edition,” said Katie Smith Sloan, president and CEO, LeadingAge.
