Re: Turned in my Resignation
I saw another thread asking about job duties & pay, so that gave me the idea to add my information.
I am salary, get paid for 40 hrs/week @ $19.00/hr.
MDS areas completed by me: AA,I, J1235,L,M,O, P1A, P2, P5-9,Q. R1, W
Medicare meeting Q monday
Morning meeting, daily
Care plan meetings on Tues & Thurs
Discharge meetings as scheduled by Soc. Service
Therapy/Medicare family update meetings as scheduled by Soc. Service
I make up the monthly assessment (ARD) calendar for everyone on the team to follow
I also schedule the care plan meetings, and make up a calendar for that -- and I make up & send letters with the meeting date to the families.
Update care plans as needed - check telephone orders daily for changes
Review & update assessments: pain, braden & dehydration
RAP's that I do: pressure ulcer, dehydration, tube feedings, restraints, dental/oral
I also am in charge of starting a 'post care plan letter' to the families that do not attend - everyone on the team must completes their own section.
I have my own running list of accidents/falls, and ER/hospitalizations, so I can complete the MDS area for those items.
Just a week ago, I had MDS'/RAPs/C.Plans on my desk from July -- that weren't yet completed by the dietary manager. And right now, I know for a fact that there are at least 40 MDS' w/care plans & RAPs on my desk that the other team members need to complete.
