Instrument (RAI) Manual.
2) Documentation

and Support during the look-back period. It is the responsibility of the
person completing the assessment to consider all episodes of the activity that
occurred over a 24-hour period during each day of the 7-day look-back period.
There shall be signatures/initials of staff providing the ADL assistance and
dates to authenticate the services were provided as coded during the look-back
period. If using an ADL grid for supporting documentation, the key for
self-performance and support provided shall be equivalent to definitions to the
MDS key.
3) The
ADL scores for residents lacking documentation shall be reset to zero.
b) Extensive
Services. Documentation shall support that the following requirements were met
during the look-back period based on the MDS items identified.
1) Documentation
shall support tracheostomy care was completed during the look-back period while
a resident in the facility.

while a resident in the facility. Documentation shall support the device was
an electrically or pneumatically powered closed-system mechanical ventilator
support device that ensures adequate ventilation in the resident who is, or who
may become, unable to support his or her own respiration. This does not
include BiPAP or CPAP devices or a ventilator or respirator that is used only
as a substitute for BiPAP or CPAP.
3) Documentation
supports the need for and use of isolation during the look-back period while a
resident is in the facility.

significant pathogens that have been acquired by physical contact or airborne

precautions (contact, droplet, and/or airborne) must be in effect; and
C) The
resident is in a room alone because of active infection and cannot have a
roommate even if the roommate has a similar active infection that requires
isolation. The resident must remain in his/her room. This requires that all
services be brought to the resident (e.g., rehabilitation, activities, dining,
etc.).
5) Treatment
and/or procedures the resident received shall be care planned and reevaluated
to ensure continued appropriateness.

to the resident's needs, planned, monitored, evaluated, and documented in the
resident's clinical record. These are nursing interventions that promote the
resident's ability to adapt and adjust to living as independently and safely as

impaired if one of the three following conditions exists.
B0100 Coma (B0100 = 1) and
completely ADL dependent or ADL did not occur (G0110A1, G0110B1, G0110H1,
G0110I1 all = 4 or 8)
C1000 Severely impaired
cognitive skills (C1000 = 3)
B0700, C0700, C1000 Two or
more of the following impairment indicators are present:
B0700 > 0 Problem being
understood
C0700 = 1 Short term memory problem
C1000 > 0 Cognitive
skills problem
And
One or more of the following
severe impairment indicators are present:
B0700 ≥ 2 Severe
problem being understood
C1000 ≥ 2 Severe
cognitive skills problem
