This question was posted on a Group Page on LinkedIN, by the Executive Director of a Nursing Home. I could not believe my eyes.
QUESTION:
Does anyone have experience recruiting potential residents at homeless shelters to raise census?????? I have heard of some nursing homes going to shelters looking for people that would qualify for medicaid.....I have heard they send the potential resident to the hospital for a (h&p) history & physical to get a diagnosis. Does anyone know how the process works?? and if it is a good idea or successful to raise census??? I have heard mixed results........
