TMF QIN Nursing Home Quality Improvement

Let's share best practices and resources and collaborate with TMF QIN and other LTC providers.

Long-term care (LTC) providers are invited to join the TMF QIN Nursing Home Quality Improvement Facebook group to share best practices, collaborate with TMF QIN-QIO nursing home staff and other LTC providers, ask questions and problem-solve on topics associated with nursing home quality improvement. The TMF Quality Innovation Network Quality Improvement Organization, under contract with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, works with long-term care communities and other providers to improve nursing home quality and performance.

Happy Friday!

We made it. YOU made it!

Just a gentle reminder that setting small, realistic goals is good for your mental health. Short-term wins boost motivation, reduce overwhelm and help reduce procrastination.

Whatever you want to get DONE, start with one small step today.
Then another tomorrow.

Celebrate every milestone. Progress counts.

Virtual connections still matter.

The pandemic taught us that staying connected online isn’t just convenient, it’s essential for mental well-being and maintaining a sense of community.
