Wanted: OPPE forms
November 7, 2013
HCPro is working on a new book about OPPE and we’d like you to be a part of it. Our goal for the book is to feature case studies of organizations that have implemented an effective OPPE program or process and are excited about sharing their experience and forms with their peers.
The new book will be structured similarly to The FPPE Toolbox by Carol Cairns, CPMSM, CPCS; Sally Pelletier, CPMSM, CPCS; and Donna Goestenkors, CPMSM. Your processes and forms could be reviewed by our field experts and included in our book.
If you’d like to be considered as a contributor to HCPro’s new OPPE book, please email me a few paragraphs about your organization’s experience, including:
- How long has your organization had an OPPE policy?
- Has The Joint Commission surveyed you on this policy?
- Did you implement your OPPE policy at the same time as your FPPE policy?
- What roadblocks did you face implementing your OPPE policy?
- How involved where you in developing and implementing your OPPE policy? Did you have any outside help (i.e., consultants)?
Please send your reply to me by December 1, 2013. I look forward to reading about your organization’s experience with OPPE.
Best,
Karen Kondilis, Editor
