Heart Failure Accreditation Tool Orientation

Video Transcription

Video Summary

Lesson 2 of ACC's Heart Failure Accreditation Tool Orientation Course focuses on identifying essential components for achieving heart failure accreditation. There are eight essential component sections that must be met, including governance, quality, community outreach, pre-hospital, early stabilization, acute care, transitions of care, and clinical quality. Each section has mandatory, recommended, and innovative items that must be addressed. The online accreditation tool provides access to each essential component, along with functional tabs that contain helpful resources, guidance statements, and references. Facilities can communicate directly with Accreditation Review Specialists for assistance and can upload supporting documents to demonstrate compliance. Shared practice documents are available for reference, but all submitted documents must accurately represent the facility. A messaging feature allows for communication between the facility and ARS regarding specific EC line items. Lesson 2 concludes the orientation course.
