It also included information about the New Part A Discharge assessment and other updates to the RAI Manual and MDS 3.0 coding. Our special guest speaker was Shelly Nanney, State MDS Clinical Coordinator with the Texas Department of Aging and Disability Services.
Topics included:
- Section GG: Functional Ability and Goals
