Hospitals can use the HCAHPS survey alone, or include additional questions after the core HCAHPS items. Hospitals must survey patients throughout each month of the year. The survey is available in official English, Spanish, Chinese, Russian and Vietnamese versions.ith these goals in mind, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and the HCAHPS Project Team have taken substantial steps to assure that the survey is credible, useful, and practical.
Q. How many hours should I run my filter? A. We recommend a minimum of 8 to 12 HOURS of filtration time per day, everyday that the pool is open & the water temperature is in excess of 70 degrees F. To make life a little easier, put a timer on the filter so you don't forget. You MUST run the filter DAILY!
In a pool of average size (10,000 to 20,000 gallons), and depending on the size of both your pump and filter, you should be able to run your pump for three to four hours during the winter and six to eight during the summer. For larger pools, increase the summer running time to eight to ten hours.
