I believe you will probably have to treat as new residents since the bed status has changed. Since you were not required to transmit the assessments for the residents in these beds the state has never received all the background information, etc....but check with your state RAI coordinator as states vary on their requirements.

We are converting quite a few beds from non-certified to certified. We have done MDSs on the people in the non-cert beds but have not transported to the state. Will we have to do admission assessments on these long term care residents now although they may have been in the same bed for years?
