How EMS Certification Supports Quality in Home Care…

Electronic Medical Services, LLC (EMS) provides Certification Program Services for home care agencies, which is a Corporate Compliance Accreditation. The program confirms that an agency meets the regulatory requirements of its jurisdiction and adds quality suggestions based on our experience to help the agency strengthen its operations beyond the minimum required.  There is a special focus on agencies that serve clients with family caregivers, with examples such as Adult Home Help and Structured Family Caregiving in some states.

Every certification begins with a digital self-survey completed by the agency. EMS then surveys the business in person. Results are made available to the surveyed agency and to the state government, and an approved agency may add the EMS Certified tag to its website.

The survey reviews items that affect the people being served, including supervisory intervention, the role of nurses in ensuring quality, promotion of home safety, and proper documentation of care activity and incidents. For Special Family Caregiver Programs reimbursed by public funds, we also validate the time spent on care. Additional items follow the jurisdiction’s published guidelines, such as the Georgia private home care regulations.

EMS also trains agency staff in efficient and accurate form usage and reporting processes, so that documentation and reporting remain consistent after the survey is complete. Fees are tiered by agency size and always start at $8,000.00.

Mr. Bruce McCollum who holds a graduate degree in healthcare administration designed our processes with his team of nurses, psychologists and business professionals.  He spent 20 years in home care and brings a first-hand authoritative level of experience, having served over 200 persons.
