ComPASS-16 (2.0) (Care Preference Assessment of Satisfaction) is our new web-based application that gives providers a simple, efficient system to assess older adults’ preferences, streamline care planning, and improve the quality of person-centered care. The ComPASS-16 2.0 app is available at no cost, thanks to funding from the Ohio Department of Medicaid and the Tennessee Department of Health.
The app incorporates the 16 preferences found in Section F of the Minimum Data Set 3.0 for nursing homes, along with key follow-up questions from the Preferences for Everyday Living Inventory. ComPASS-16 2.0 also includes questions to learn how satisfied residents are with the way their preferences are met. It is compatible with devices including smartphones, tablets, and computers.
ComPASS-16 2.0 provides an easy way to:
- ASK nursing home residents about their preferences for everyday living and document the information for easy sharing among care team members
- TRACK resident satisfaction with the way their preferences are met over time
- IDENTIFY opportunities for providers to improve care delivery
- COMMUNICATE important preferences across care team members and shifts
- ENHANCE care delivery by improving resident satisfaction with daily care using suggested IPPI protocols
