New in CCRM: Developing an Aging Services Risk Management Program

​Aging services providers must have a proactive risk management program to advance resident care in a safe environment, reduce risks, and, ultimately, reduce events, claims, and lawsuits. Developing an Aging Services Risk Management Program, now available on the Continuing Care Risk Management (CCRM) members' website, outlines several elements to include when developing such a program, including a culture of safety, a risk management plan, board and leadership support, a designated risk manager (or managers), a risk management committee, and an event reporting system.
