Medicare/medicaid certified facilities
Medicare/Medicaid Certified Facilities are facilities which are certified by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) as a Nursing Facility. These facilities primarily provide inpatient skilled nursing care and related services to patients who require medical, nursing, or rehabilitative services but do not provide the level of care or treatment available in a hospital. They are sometimes called nursing homes or nursing facilities.
Established by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), in partnership with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), the COE-NF offers Certified Medicare and Medicaid Nursing Facility Staff a centralized resource hub with easy access to trainings, technical assistance and additional resources, at no cost.
We help nursing facilities to improve the quality of life and care provided for residents who are experiencing a variety of behavioral health disorders, with a focus on Serious Mental Illness (SMI), Substance Use Disorder (SUD) and Co-Occurring Disorders (COD).
We provide direct technical assistance, evidence-based training, and resources that are appropriate for every member of your long-term care facility — from those providing day-to-day direct care, to clinical and administrative staff.
