The Nursing Home Director of Nursing Services Facility Orientation Guide was written by Peg Tobin and Richard Tobin as a guide to help a new Director of Nursing key-in on specific areas to learn about in each department of a post acute facility. It is also designed to help seasoned DON's become familiar with a new facility in an organized process. Peg and Richard Tobin have both worked in the capacity of Regional Managers and Corporate Leaders. Richard has been an administrator and Peg a director of nursing services; therefore, they are very familiar with the operations of a post acute facility and developed this guide from years of experience in the field. According to Peg and Richard in order for a leader to be successful they need to take the time to meet all of their associates and learn what is happening in each department from the associates. Once a leader has demonstrated they care about those that work with them; the associates will care to adopt the leader's vision. This guide is general yet specific at the same time. In healthcare things are constantly changing and being approved upon; therefore, there will be reports that are referred to that will become extinct and new ones added. When change happens update and move on. The guide will remain pertinent and a very useful tool.
