Our dietitian is only in the facility once a week
so if the ARD is after she is done for the week, she will do as much
as she can on the assessment and then I will fill in the rest i.e.
Consumption<75% if it happens that way and any other changes that may have
occurred from the time she did her part to the ARD. I then co sign section
K and the raps when I have had to review them after the ARD. That is how
we work around this problem where I am at. At least she has done as much
as she can with the MDS/RAPS/Careplan as she can and I finish them up and
cosign.

Subject: RE: Completing sections prior to
the ARD
I have this problem with the dietician. I have spoken to her on
more than one occasion . At times I will not have the MDS available in the
computer until after the ard so she has to wait. I have tried educating but
all she sees is getting as much done as possible when she is here.She is only
here 3 days a week.
Are any of your dietary, activities or social
services RAI teammates completing their MDS sections ON or BEFORE the
ARD? I find this to be a problem for part-time or consulting
staff.
