Carvalho Grove Health and Rehabilitation Center -

MDS (Minimum Data Set) nurse is a key tool in the process of assessing the functional capabilities of residents of our skilled nursing facilities.

This role requires a registered nurse (RN) who conducts federally mandated assessments of the patients. MDS nurses are responsible for collecting integral data and compiling it into a thorough report for further research at their facility.

A bachelor's degree from an accredited nursing college is preferred.

The objective of MDS coordinators is to promote the physical and emotional well being of nursing facility residents. They use a Resident Assessment Instrument (RAI) to gather information from residents and their families during initial and periodic interviews.

The MDS covers such areas as the patient's mood, behavior patterns, cognitive ability, and nutrition needs.

Information from these assessments helps caretakers formulate individualized care plans that include support from social services, dieticians, rehab specialists, and medical staff.

MDS coordinators then implement and monitor these care plans to ensure their effectiveness. They must also make sure all strategies comply with Medicare and Medicaid requirements and ethical standards.

An MDS nurse is the main communicator between the insurance professionals and management officials at their facility.
