Hospital setting experience ABOUT US: Medical Director Services was
founded in 2016 when SNF’s were shifting a focus on value at the
same time treating residents with a higher level of acuity. MDS PC
puts an emphasis on quality and customer service first. Another
crucial focus is treating in place when possible and reducing
unnecessary hospitalizations. MDS PC is experienced in providing
medical services in an SNF setting with an understanding of how to
give effective medical care in an SNF as well as an understanding
of the survey process. We are currently providing services in
facilities with specialty units and provide appropriate medical
personal with the experience in treating residents on a vent. It is
standard for our providers to reach out to the surrounding
hospitals to ensure that we have good communications in terms of
the continuation of care. We put a major focus on reducing the
number of medications as well as the requirements with narcotics
and psych meds. If the providers feel that certain medications are
appropriated, we ensure that it is well documented so that the
facility will not be cited.
