Critical Pathways are resources and training methods to help your healthcare team optimize their clinical approach with focus on communication, accountability, and person-centered care. Also, they help to systematize your clinical approach with focus on person-centered care and position your team to reduce unnecessary variations and services. Consistent utilization of Critical Pathways will increase interdisciplinary team communication, decrease unnecessary complications, improve continuity of care between post-acute providers, and provide high quality of services to every resident.

Includes a pre-admission process outlining pertinent information and communication needed for the coordination of the resident’s transition from acute care to post-acute care.
Includes a post-discharge process that involves multiple departments, who will contact each resident and/or family member to ensure post-acute services are being delivered according to the discharge plan with the goal of ensuring the resident’s needs are continuing to be met and provide continued support throughout the 30 days post-discharge from skilled nursing.
