Subject: weights, unable to weigh...
Have a resident with an old hip and new femur fracture. Severely
osteoporotic. Unable to use hoyer due to fear of further fractures.
Unable to sit in wheelchair. No bed scale. How would I code weight
loss if I can't weigh her? She is on a TF for all nutrition and
hydration. I tried coding the NA option in MDI software and it is not
accepted. Any ideas??

Stacee,
You could call MDI. I have a number at work if you need it. They have always been very helpful when I call.
