I am the MDS coordinator for 180 beds, as of Friday we had 95 Med
A's. The rest LTC. The administrator just applied to have all
180 beds dually certified. There are 3 other nurses who do MDSs along
with me. I do everything you mentioned below plus...(except for the
dc/reentry forms and running LTC care mtg.) I am also responsible
for 21 Med A bed assessments. The one possitive in all that? My
day speeds by!
I am a MDS coordinator with 200 LTC
beds (all medicare certified) and 12 SA beds....we also use our
LTC beds for Med A and SA residents, thereby increasing the # of
SA/PPS's.
I am the only MDS coordinator in charge of the
above. I run team mtgs, weekly UR mtgs, do all mds schedules,
certif forms, ck the tracking forms, make LPD calls, inservice on the mds,
help with MDS completion if running late, print QI's for facility,
open, close, lock and transmit all MDS's and in a nut shell
everything.
Please let me know what you are in charge
of----I would appreciate your input. Thank
you.
