Significant change

[Kristen Tryba]

Title: Message

Just want everyone's opinion. I am currently in the process of completing RAPS on a resident who had a significant improvement due to many improvments with ADL's this assessment is replacing a already scheduled quarterly. Between the A3a date and R2B date the resident fell, banged her head has a subdural hematoma and has had a notable significant decline in numerous areas. Should I just include this information in my raps I'm doing now, or do another significant change assessment. I don't know whether she will improve again or not. She is a little better, but I doubt she'll be back to her prior level of functioning in 14 days. Thanks in advance Kristen Tryba RN Resident Assessment Coordinator Heart of America Medical Center 701-776-5455 ext 146
