Resident Review of Change in Condition: Nursing Facility Notification to Missouri Department of Mental Health |
PASRR is achieving its federal purpose when all NF residents with PASRR disabilities are identified, their disability related needs are evaluated, services and supports needed are identified, and the PASRR recommended services and supports are delivered to them. Resident care plans must include the Specialized Services or Specialized Rehabilitative Services that the NF will provide as a result of the Level II recommendations made by PASRR. If the NF disagrees, it must indicate its rationale for disagreeing in the resident's medical record [CFR 483.21(a)].
PASRR Resident assessment is an ongoing process that begins before the individual moves into a Nursing Facility and continues throughout the stay. The Final Rule [CRF 483.20(k)(4)] was published in November 2016 (80 FR 42168). Under this rule, nursing facilities (NFs) must notify the state mental health authority (SMHA) or state intellectual disability authority (SIDA) promptly after a resident experiences a significant change in condition of any kind. Please keep a copy ofthis Resident Review notification form for your records.
