Quality Service Review New Reviewer

This training builds off the foundational information given in the Introduction to QSR, and further teaches participants planning to be QSR Reviewers or seeking to understand the review process more in-depth and how to apply QSR measures and demonstrate scoring of QSR measures. The training process to become a Quality Service Review reviewer combines classroom learning with hands-on experience. After attending training, if ready to move forward with becoming a reviewer, the trainee is assigned to a seasoned QSR reviewer to serve as mentor. Working as a team, the reviewer-in-training is provided opportunities for observation and gradually takes on a more active role. Training activities are designed to provide inter-rater reliability, ensuring accuracy in the resulting data.
