Nursing Home Quality Measures and Programs for Quality Leaders

Posted on April 23, 2026 by Sharon Hollister

LeadingAge Minnesota is launching a new, in-depth webinar series designed specifically for nursing home quality leaders who want to strengthen their understanding and use of federal quality programs.

Nursing Home Quality Measures and Programs for Quality Leaders is a three-part series that takes a practical, focused look at the systems shaping quality reporting and performance in skilled nursing settings. From the Skilled Nursing Facility Quality Reporting Program (SNF QRP) and Value-Based Purchasing (SNF VBP), to core quality measures and the Five-Star Quality Rating System, each session is built to help you move beyond compliance and into meaningful improvement.

Participants will gain clarity on how these programs work, how to accurately report and interpret data, and most importantly, how to use that information to drive better outcomes in their communities. Whether you’re tracking performance metrics or navigating reporting requirements, this series offers actionable strategies you can apply right away.

The series will be led by Stephanie DeWees, HSE, NHA, LPN, RAC-CT, a nationally recognized expert in quality reporting and owner of Squared Business Solutions. Her sessions are known for translating complex regulations into clear, usable guidance.

Designed for nursing home staff responsible for federal quality programs and reporting, this is a valuable opportunity to build confidence and capability in an increasingly data-driven environment.

The three sessions take place August 17, 19, and 20, with options to register for the full series or individual webinars. Participants can earn up to 3.5 CEUs.

Spots are limited—register today to secure your place.
