Adult IOP Program Design Manual

Most IOPs don't fail in the therapy room. They fail in the office.Admissions nobody can defend. Schedules that don't add up. A star clinician quits and coverage collapses. The charting is late, the billing is guesswork, and the surveyor is coming in six weeks. The Adult IOP Program Design Manual is the desk reference for the person accountable for fixing all of that - the program director, clinical director, owner, or supervisor whose signature sits on the schedule, the staffing plan, and the charts.Across twelve systems and more than forty reproducible tools, you'll build: - Level-of-care decisions you can defend - admission, continued stay, step-up, step-down, transfer, and discharge- Staffing and scheduling that survive vacancies, callouts, and census swings- Safety, documentation, and billing-readiness systems with named owners and review loops- Quality improvement that runs on real measures, not binder filler - plus a 12-week launch plan and go/no-go checklistEvery chapter ends with the tools, not just the theory: decision recorders, audit forms, RACI charts, drill calendars, and a master artifact table you can copy and run. Written in plain director-to-director language, with verification checkpoints throughout so your litigation, payers, and licensing bodies get precise questions instead of vague ones.Volume 1 of the Adult IOP Workflow Series. If you run the program, this is the book that runs with you.
