Medline Clinical Programs:
Expert Support for Healthcare Challenges
Medline clinical programs support our customers with
comprehensive approaches to complex issues in health-
care. Two programs closely related to continence care are
the Compass: Fit Right program for F-tag 315 and QIS
compliance, and the Pressure Ulcer Prevention Program
(PUPP) that explores the causes, prevention, treatment
and documentation of these devastating wounds. Other
programs address CAUTI, hand hygiene, advanced wound
care and diabetes care.
Program Focus
Compass: Fit Right Program
The Compass: Fit Right Program is a practical, hands-on
resource to help you improve care outcomes and reduce
regulatory risk. The current release helps long term care
providers demystify the continence care portion of the new
QIS survey process, helping them be survey-ready.
The program includes staff training on many aspects of
continence care, including assessing voiding patterns,
incontinence types, treatment options, perineal care and
UTI prevention. Courses are on DVDs and come with program
manuals as well as plans, algorithms and protocols
you can tailor to your own requirements.
Patient and family education tools help keep
them engaged and involved with their or their
loved one’s care plan. Practical information and
tools for determining appropriate size and type
of continence products are included, as well as
financial tools.
The Compass: Fit Right Program
is another way Medline goes
beyond just supplying healthcare
products. We’re striving to
become your healthcare partner.
