Clinicians are often involved with OASIS data collection without a clear understanding of why the information is so important and what it is used for. In order to collect accurate data, clinicians must have a working knowledge of key concepts and terminology unique to the OASIS tool. This course will provide an overview of how OASIS data collection impacts both patient care and agency performance.
