RE: Sig correction of prior assessment

[Brenda Chance]

Per the manual, a significant correction of a prior full assessment is done “when an uncorrected major error is discovered in a prior comprehensive assessment.”  There is no time frame on the completion of this.  Don’t forget, once you get this scheduled with a new ARD, to set up a new care plan conference using obra guidelines.    Brenda W.

I need help!!! Surveyors here and have 2 full assessments with RAPS that turned up missing. When I reprinted them, the RAPS and section V were not completed. These assessments were from a prior MDS Coord. completed in April and May. The surveyor wants a significant correction done. Can that be done so long after the original? Nothing that I can find in the manual about time limits. Has anyone had experience in this area?  I would appreciate any help. Betty Haines RN, MDSC Do you Yahoo!? Protect your identity with Yahoo!
