Everyone knows that Florida requires home health agencies have a Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan (CEMP). After several busy hurricane seasons, AHCA turned over approval responsibilities of those plans to the Department of Health and many agencies struggled with the stricter compliance requirements. Add a global pandemic to the mix and it is more critical than ever that agencies have a very clear and comprehensive plan – not only to be compliant with the state regulations but to have something that is clear, easy to understand and easy to implement. That’s where HCAF’s All Hazards Emergency Management Task Force (AHEMT) comes in! Join Theresa Gates, Beyond Home Health Care Services CEO & Administrator, Vice President of HCAF’s Board of Directors and AHEMT Chairperson, to learn about the newly released All Hazards Emergency Management Manual. This manual is packed full of tools and assistance to help your agency not just comply with emergency management rules but to be armed and ready for any eventuality! Theresa will be joined by HCAF’s Director of Clinical and Regulatory Affairs, Patti Heid, as well as HCAF’s Director of Private Duty Services, Kristen Wheeler, who will be on hand to answer regulatory and membership questions.
