Re: A day in the life of an MDS Coordinator?
Thanks for all the suggestions and info! I appreciate it. I have some LTC experience, although limited. I'm hoping that my case mgmt experience will help some, although I realize this is different from MDS. As far as MDS coordinator's being "paper pushers" I get that same attitude as a CM in the hospital I work at. Floor nurses tend to think only those nurses working on floors are worthy! Obviously I see this much differently, but I understand there are so many more opportunities than being a staff RN. Everyone must start somewhere and I'm hoping someone gives me a chance to get into this. CM was hard to get into as well, but while I like nursing, my comfort zone is doing more administrative type work. There is a website I was looking at as well -
http://www.nrai.net/ which offers online courses/certification. Does anyone know anything about them? I thought it would help to get my foot in the door. Thanks again!
