Long Term Care Best Practices Coalition

People Around the World

All inquiries and interest in the Long-Term Care Best Practices Coalition should be directed to Deborah Finley at 573/817-8300 or by e-mail to dfinley@primaris.org. A new website is currently in development for the Best Practices Coalition. The new website address will be provided when available.

Everyone wants to improve the quality of care for those living in long term care. One way to do this is to review the medical and nursing practices that appear to be working well, and then to share these practices with everyone connected to long term care. That is the purpose of this site and the Long Term Care Best Practices Coalition.

Mission:
The coalition, made up of medical professionals and stakeholders, strives to develop, pilot and implement "best practices" through discussion, research and an interdisciplinary approach. It will identify the education and possible rule changes needed to positively influence quality of care for long term care residents.
