Education and Youth Programming

  • Regulatory Compliance Alignment (Education, Outcomes Strategy)
  • Patient and Family Centered Care.
  • Healthcare Strategy @ facility, clinic, clinician/provider, or consumer/caregiver levels
  • Pay-for-Performance Methodology (VBP, MU, CAHPS)
  • LTC Quality & Process Improvement – F-Tag Custom Tool
  • QAPI compliance measurement (process, procedure, policy – creation and maintenance)
  • CHNA/Community Wellness (data analysis and strategy)
  • SDOH Metrics/Youth Engagement – Programing
  • Intergenerational Community and Regional Partnerships
  • Communicate complex medical information (Telehealth)
  • Facilitation with Community Conversations
  • Coming Soon in 2023-24, Mirandaj.club – Life Skills and Projects, geared towards youth and teens (this project has been moved to a new non-profit, Action in Motion, Inc.)
In working with and in healthcare facilities, we realize the need for different methodologies which involve “stakeholders” in three separate roles or departments/areas.

Youth – the leaders of tomorrow!

With an emphasis on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) and Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) we work with organizations, educational institutions, facilities, and schools to best identify a starting point that meets your needs. Exposing overall wellness from a “Mind, Body, and Soul” perspective, while engaging youth in programs, Entrepreneur strategy, and skills focused on navigation in everyday life.

1. The Consumer or patient, who may be a caregiver to a loved one as well.

2. The Provider or physician or clinician delivering care to the consumer

3. A Healthcare Facility where modalities of treatment measures are provided, or a Long-Term Care (LTC) also known as a Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF)

1. Economic Stability (Civics-Identify disruptions and strategies to overcome barriers through inspiring and engaging youth, along with prioritizing action items)
2. Education Access and Quality Programming
3. Health Care Access and Quality (Wellness- Body-Mind-Soul, what we consume, new concepts to try)
4. Neighborhood and Built Environment (Area activities, scholarships, volunteering)

Based on the above roles, processes that lead to compliance aren’t easily comprehended. Understanding ever-changing care delivery, accountability, and responsibility can become complex, often time consuming, and frustrating to navigate.

Our goal is to save you time and resources with the ability to measure quality improvement. ASK US regarding how:

We help Providers with specific tasks in education and patient literacy. With the scheduled shift from a MIPs model to MVPs; a person-centered methodology will drive new care innovation.

Help Long Term Care (LTC), one of the newest inclusions to CMS Regulatory Compliance, FTAG tool, QAPI (Quality Assurance – Process Improvement) outline, and our educational strategy to assist with compliance as well as a Plan of Correction (POC)

We look at REAL issues through multiple data sources including, the lens of the Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA), community data, listen to what youth and families prioritize as where they want to be engaged. We educate using the “whole person,” body, mind, and soul that makes up each unique individual. Through discussion, we learn the barriers they face within all demographics to realize collaborative concepts to prioritize based on their goals. Using a R. (respect) E. (equity) A. (awareness) L. (learning) outline in programming, diversity, equity, and inclusion are top of mind in our strategy.

With insight in all the “touch points” of care delivery, our tool is available online, 24/7, to meet YOUR needs wherever you are located. Additionally, we include the ability to translate our resources, tools, and educational metrics into any language. This allows users to comprehend in their native tongue which increases learning outcomes measurement as well as their ability to educate or onboard new members or staff.

This is just one demonstration of our abilities in helping humans understand terminology, healthcare acronyms, and increase literacy within each specific pathway.

To understand what is required, manage workflows, and improve outcomes requires an easy to follow, step-by-step educational tool which we can develop with you in mind.

Need us to focus on a specific topic or help educate your staff to the importance, ASK US! We create custom tools, using a best-practice approach.

We look forward to hearing how we can help meet your needs or partner on a project or procurement proposal!

Coaching

Are you interested in exploring methods to develop new skills, strategies, and partnerships? A wise friend used to say, “Culture can eat strategy for lunch!” Oftentimes we observe patterns or behaviors in the workplace or executive leadership where the thought process of “culture” aligns with the outcomes we often measure. One concept of where to start is in simply asking the following:

  • What is the challenge I/we would like to overcome?
  • What are the perceived barriers?
  • Why are those barriers present?
  • Who owns them (do I/we have the authority to overcome the barrier I/we am trying to solve?)
  • Where do I start? (Do not be concerned with this answer, we’re on your team -that’s our Purpose!)

Define your strategy to embrace diverse, intergenerational opportunities’… 

For the first time in history, there are five generations in the workplace. They are:

  • Traditionalists – born 1925 to 1945
  • Baby Boomers – born 1946 to 1964
  • Generation X – born 1965 to 1980
  • Millennials – born 1981 to 2000
  • Generation Z – born 2001 to 2020
  • Generation Alpha – born 2020 the first born entirely in the 21st century

Each generation bring a variety of skillsets and experience that can lead to innovative concepts encompassing solutions for organizations, living arrangements, and family structures. Realtors now face the challenge of finding dwellings that accommodate multiple generations. From business perspectives to families understanding core values, work ethic, communication preferences, feedback preferences, as well as stereotypes provides useful insight moving forward.

Personally Grow and Flourish!

When we decide to develop a comprehensive view of ourselves, the fundamentals of living a good life, and accepting ourselves, change happens!

Learning where we want to start, accepting the fact we are imperfect, but responsible and capable, we realize we can do better, work towards new goals and boundaries, and work with others who support our efforts.

Transformation can be considered “tough work” to accomplish since it allows awareness in the current state of three elements that include:

  • physical or body; where we need to determine our personal “self-destructive” behaviors before we can specifically identify where and how to disengage.
  • emotional and/or soul; do we experience “emotional poverty.”
  • cognitive or mind; what are the mind-body interactions.

Committing to “intentional living” towards the goals we are looking to achieve help us to “shine” as examples for others to follow. Oftentimes people imagine the “family” as a model of support in a household where basic needs are met for all the members (health, education, wealth, food, nutrition, safe water, and good sanitation, etc.), Over the last 20 years the American family, including the structure, marriage, and parenting have shifted, and the “nature” and structure needs re-examination and has encouraged demographic re-structuring.

As we become aware of an action or experience, the next step is to learn how to heal. Mistakes do not define WHO we are, rather the beginning of the realization of how to improve.

Training Focused for Clinicians and Providers:

AHRQ – Webinars for Primary Care Settings

CMS: As one of the largest federal programs dedicated to improving health quality at the community level, the goal to deliver person-centered, safer and more effective care in your community requires positive engaged citizens.

Clinicians, Did you know by participating in a local Quality Innovation Network-Quality Improvement Organization (QIN-QIO) initiative, you’ll gain access to valuable resources, including evidence-based improvement strategies that are aligned with other major health quality initiatives and that can help you prepare for participation in the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services’ Quality Payment Program.

Working with a QIN-QIO, you and your peers will share knowledge on critical health care quality and safety issues while discovering real-world best practices that will work in your own facility or practice. You’ll also help your peers replicate your successes and avoid your challenges – and they’ll help you do the same.

Partnering with the QIO Program will allow you to make a difference in your own community while contributing to national health quality goals that benefit all Americans. It’s an opportunity to share your organization’s experience and proven solutions with a broader community.

Long Term Care – The Skilled Nursing Facility Value-Based Purchasing Program (SNF VBP)

Just as LTC learned where and how to access information and tools, CMS retired the site in Dec. 2020.  The new site, walks the user through the steps in retrieving data sets for specific data collection periods.

It’s handy to have tools! Visit our Education and Tools section or let us know how we can help!

As a Long-Term Care Facility (LTC) or Nursing Home 

  • CMS mandates are aligned to performance indicators related to the Healthcare Reform Act. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is a federal agency within the United States Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) that administers the Medicare program and works in partnership with state governments to administer Medicaid, the Children’s Health Insurance (CHIP), and health insurance portability standards.
  • Are you a Nursing Home or a facility that has beds for Rehab patients? Purposeful Concepts LLC offers the right level of leadership to guide your team with "role-based" strategies to best understand desired performance outcomes and pinpoint the change in a workflow that can make the difference. With LTC facilities now facing CMS mandates from both a federal and state standards align with components of care which are listed on a “LTC-Rule Job Aid” with measures or “F-tag” focus areas. CMS F-tags are used by each state department of Health and Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services to survey quality of care provided to residents in facilities.  We have a custom tool available that correlates to the current available F-tags that focus on the survey process.  Join us, we offer different levels of service to best fit the needs of your facility.
