As we enter a new year, post-acute and long‑term care organizations have an opportunity to reset, refocus, and strengthen their systems that support regulatory compliance and quality of care. January is more than a fresh start — it’s a critical window to evaluate what worked last year, identify areas for improvement, and ensure your facility is positioned for survey success.
To support your efforts, CMS Compliance Group is launching our “12 Days of Compliance” series. Over the next several days, we’ll break down the essential tasks that help facilities start the year strong. Each post focuses on a high‑impact area of compliance — from QAPI and infection control to staff competency, care planning, documentation integrity, and more.
Our goal is simple: Provide practical, actionable guidance that helps your team maintain survey readiness and deliver high‑quality care all year long.
Whether you’re a seasoned leader or new to your role, this series will give you the structure and clarity needed to build a strong compliance foundation for the year ahead.
Follow along as we walk through the 12 key steps that set the tone for a successful year. Happy New Year!
