  1. How many mds 3.0 assessments are you able to do in a day?

    In my facility, we do all the sections, except: therapy enters their own portion of section O, dietary does section K, social services does E & Q. The unit managers enter section M. We are also in charge of seeing the residents to do the inter...
  2. Having hard time coding Section G

    We pull our ADLs from the computer. I get some funny coding if I were to follow the rules exactly as they are laid out. For example, there has been a number of times I"m getting a 0/2 for bed mobility and transfers?
  3. CAT & CAA's...help!!!

    Good luck to you. I"m a brand new MDS coordinator, too. I stepped down from a Unit Manager position and am loving it. However, the CAAs are driving me crazy. I only had 9 days of training before the experienced MDS coordinator left, so I'm kind ...

  7. Where oh where have the good PCTs gone?

    I can't believe the NM didn't do any disciplinary action for this PCT. Her behavior is putting people's lives in jeopardy. SourApril, having a "bad day" does not excuse making up vital signs and not turning patients. This isn't about humiliating so...
  8. Calling out-have bronchitis and don't know what to do

    Having been a unit manager for the past year and a half, I can tell you this.......The per diems never seemed to be available when I actually needed them. It was as if they just wanted to pick a day or two here and there when they wanted to work, bu...
  9. Hello. I'm an RN, but also mother to a severely disabled girl who has a lot of health needs. I recently found out that for the past 5 years, but daughter's incontinent briefs have just been changed openly in the special ed classroom. The reason I ...
