When this triggers it is considered "strength." We should care plan to the resident's strengths. See page 4-30 of the RAI manual "Addressing resident strengths in the care planning process." F-279. It is important for the IDT to look at resident strengths and use them to prevent declines and to improve resident quality of life and self-esteem.

Our social services who code this area don't want to care plan to it under psychosocial. Any ideas? _________________________________________________________________ Have fun customizing MSN Messenger � learn how here! http://www.msnmessenger-download.com/tracking/reach_customize /---------------------------------------------------------- The Case Mix Discussion Group is a free service of the American Association of Nurse Assessment Coordinators "Committed to the Assessment Professional" Be sure to visit the AANAC website.
