[NCASG] Survey on Health Facilities Compliance Surveyor

Fri Oct 16 14:38:02 MDT 2020

Alabama does have a match

  1.  Licensure and Certification Surveyor  $47,805.60 - $72,595.20  specification and job announcement are attached
  2.  Yes
  3.  3. 40 hours per week
  4.  4. Yes, positions are located throughout the state and are assigned to an area, however, in order to keep the surveyors from getting too familiar with staff at a facility, Public Health does periodically move surveyors into different territories and onto different teams.
  5.  5. Work as a team, could have an RN, Nutritionist, Medical Technicians, Social Workers assigned to a team, depending on the type and size of the facility could have multiple team members in each of the areas
  6.  No
  7.  FYI there is no question 7
  8.  In the past, teams worked 5- 8 hour days but went to 4-10 hour which has helped and in the past the surveyors were assigned to the central office and were sent out each week all over the state.  Having surveyors stationed around the state and in certain territories has cut down on overnight travel which has helped
  9.  We have none and would be interested to know what other states are doing
  10. We really haven’t been successful in recruiting in one certain area
  11. You do not have to have a RN degree, you can come in as a nutritionist, social worker etc (check attached announcement for all 2, 568 ways you can meet the requirements for this job) and at least 2 years’ experience in your specialty area.  Incumbents have on -the job training and it’s at least a year before they are sent out unsupervised.  The majority of time, a team is sent out to a facility and A L and C Coordinator, which is a working team leader, is assigned to every team so there is supervision on site.

Hope this helps

Good afternoon!
I apologize for the length but we are gathering some information on a difficult to retain position, Health Facilities Compliance Surveyor. The current classification for these duties is Health Professional<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__drive.google.com_file_d_0B4enHpLSVk4eZHJHQUdJblU4U1E_view&d=DwMFaQ&c=8K0mnSt5E4j4U_dMGxZxbA&r=HGz7-yQSitRRYj8-7anlC81kJLngEhfm-CVjv4UZpyUu07nssQWPXAdFuip2vOeq&m=cPO1otEAhYuUF6us5gJ4mN7o32KEdG-yQWfbuJ2-j1U&s=LnHILJwqFKE9kXl1VIdSf5aNsBQdPFnChtEw2Mj3hYk&e=>.
The Surveyors conduct resident-centered, outcome-oriented inspections of health care facilities or providers to ensure compliance with applicable federal and state statutes and regulations as well as professional standards of various health care disciplines.  Current guidelines state a registered nurse must complete the survey.
1.     Do you have a similar position?  If so, please list.  If you have a similar position but it does not have to be an RN please include that as well.
2.     Does the position travel?
3.     If so, how much per week do they travel?
4.     Does the position have a designated territory within the state?
5.     Does the position work with other positions using a rotation schedule or something similar?
6.     Do you provide some sort of stipend or premium pay for the position?
8.     What best practices can you share that you use to retain individuals in this position?
9.     What best practices can you share that you use to recruit individuals for this position?
10.   Where have you had the most success recruiting from?
11.   Our RN's come into the position with a degree and two years of professional health care experience, then they have other requirements to learn the regulations. This usually requires 6-9 months before they can conduct a survey independently. How do your incumbents prepare for the position?
12.  If possible, please provide your class description, minimum qualifications, and pay information for this series please?
If we could have any responses by October 30 it would be great.  We really appreciate your time and any information you can provide.  Thanks so much!
