Abstract

Employee and patient-related incident reporting is important to both risk management and quality improvement disciplines and can be used concurrently to facilitate regulatory and accreditation-required data collection and analysis. A comprehensive home health-oriented incident and quality improvement follow-up report form corresponds to a customized electronic database with a menu of reports useful in monitoring, trending, and reporting the home health care agency's incident experience. Engaging staff in understanding and participating correctly in the incident reporting process is key to its success in fulfilling its intended purpose.
