Electronic Monitoring
Senate Bill 553
enacted by the 2016 General Assembly mandates the Board of Health to promulgate regulations governing the implementation of voluntary electronic monitoring in the rooms of residents of nursing homes. The legislation requires that the Board utilize existing
policies and procedures set forth in the Board's 2004 Guideline "Electronic Monitoring of Residents' Rooms"
in the promulgation of the regulations. The proposed regulatory amendments in this fast track action are a combination of the 2004 guidelines which were developed to assist nursing homes with the privacy issues that may arise when installing
electronic monitoring equipment, and the work of a workgroup assembled pursuant to the legislation. LeadingAge Virginia served on the workgroup. Click here for

Minimum Data Set (MDS) 3.0
The minimum data set (MDS) is a tool for implementing standardized assessment and for facilitating care management in nursing homes (NH) and non-critical access hospital swing beds (SB). The new MDS 3.0 has been designed to improve the reliability, accuracy, and usefulness of the MDS, to include the resident in the assessment process, and to use standard protocols used in other settings.
