Clinical Resource Center

The Clinical Resource Center (CRC) website is designed to provide key information and resources about clinical care for staff members caring for residents living in long-term care (LTC) facilities. The CRC project, originally called the Wisconsin Clinical Resource Center (WCRC), began as a Civil Money Penalty (CMP) funded research project in 2007. The project is a collaborative effort and is currently funded by the Wisconsin DHS. The project founders include LeadingAge Wisconsin and WHCA/WiCAL. Development support is provided by the Quality Improvement with Data (QID) group at the University of Wisconsin - Madison.

Who can access the Clinical Resource Center?

Website access is currently available free of charge to Wisconsin nursing home staff, the Wisconsin Department of Health Services (WI DHS) and Wisconsin Coalition for Collaborative Excellence in Assisted Living (WCCEAL) assisted living community staff. WCCEAL members please check with your provider association sponsor for access information. If you feel you qualify for CRC access you can self-register using the registration wizard.
