MDS Workload

Just wondering, how many MDS assessments should one MDS nurse do in a month? I am doing a total of 90 Medicare MDS assessments a month, about 25 comprehensives and 65 MPAFs, is this reasonable/fair? Is the ratio written somewhere? Thanks!

Did you know there is a MDS subforum here under the geriatric forum. You may want to post MDS questions there as you will probably get a better response.

On to your question....jeez, how in the world do you ever get that done! How much overtime are you into? I don't know of any definative ratios, but that's got to be to much for one person to handle.

No, there is no such thing as a "ratio". The nurse does as many as their facility has need of. You need to discuss with your DON any issues you have regarding the "load".
