Re: Significant Change

[Park Lane MDS]

My question is this, who signs the mds, and who is going to get the blame for the write up from state if it is found you should have done the significant change.  Does your DON have any idea about the mds process.  But on the other hand, my DON thinks that I should be doing more significant changes on res.  even if there is not a significant change there.  I just show her the criteria from the mds bible, and she backs off for a while.  It is such a vicious cycle mds coordinators live with.  As Rodney Dangerfield once said "I don't no respect."
