Mock Surveys
"I wanted to let you know that we had are biennial survey today, it was an abbreviated survey.  Deficient free.  Thank you Alberta and FALA for all your support and assistance!!!
~Jackie Gonzalez RN, Administrator, The Cove at the Marbella
Mock inspections are a good way for your organization to provide a training experience that approximates the intensity of a real inspection from AHCA. FALA uses only former AHCA inspectors to provide you with a truly simulated inspection.  It allows providers to test themselves and their staff under realistic conditions and provides the guidance people need to respond to situations quickly and appropriately.  Mock inspections also give providers the opportunity to analyze their logistic capabilities, corporate procedures, and information systems to determine whether they can handle the documentation and data demands of an inspection in a timely fashion.  As a result, you can identify and correct weaknesses and can enhance your systems and procedures before organizational damage is done.
