Anyone involved in the MDS/RAI process knows that each October brings an updated MDS 3.0 Item Set. We had a break for three years due to COVID, but this October, SNF/LTC facilities will implement an updated MDS Item Set… and it’s not a stretch to call it significant.

Join us for an in-depth look at what lies ahead for all staff who work with MDS/RAI processes, including:

• Items from the IMPACT Act that are now part of MDS 3.0 v1.18.11 and their importance for LTC
• Changes to resident interviews
• Items that are significantly different in v1.18.11 from our current version (v1.17.2)
• Resources needed for this new MDS implementation
• How to prepare for v1.18.11 in your facility ahead of Oct. 1, 2023

Who should attend:

MDS Coordinators, Directors of Nursing, Administrators, Therapists, Department Heads, Reimbursement Managers, Nurses, CNAs, Discharge Planners, Preadmission Coordinators, etc.
