PDPM Directory of Fact Sheets

The fact sheets are designed around individual topics and PDPM categories and can be provided individually or as a package of several based on the needs of individual resident. As an example a new admission with a case mix classification of HDE2 might be provided with a package of fact sheets that include: "What is Case Mix?", "Who to call for Case Mix Information?", "Case Mix Questions and Answers", “Requesting a Reconsideration,"  “Signs of Depression,” "What is Special Care High?" and "What is a Nursing Function Score?". Another example would be a long-time resident whose case mix classification changed from a PA1 to CA1 due to an active diagnosis of pneumonia might be provided with the fact sheets "What is Clinically Complex?" and "Requesting a Reconsideration?". Residents, resident representatives, and families may be directed to the fact sheets on this page or may be given hard copies.
