The RN 3 will work under the supervision of the Assistant Director of Nursing and assist with ensuring regulatory oversight of the Preadmission Screening and Resident Review (PASRR) program. PASRR requirements were first enacted with the federal Nursing Home Reform Act as part of OBRA 1987. This requires all people with a developmental disability and/or mental illness to have a PASRR evaluation prior to nursing home admission to determine if that level of care is required or if their needs can be met in a less restrictive setting. If nursing facility admission is deemed appropriate, it must also be determined if other specialized services are indicated for support of the person. Job duties will include: Using data to monitor the status of people with developmental disabilities in nursing homes, focusing on the need for skilled nursing, specialized services, and compliance with length of stay determinations determined by the Preadmission Screening and Resident Review (PASRR) program.

Conducting quality assurance reviews of completed PASRR evaluations to ensure people with developmental disabilities are diverted from unnecessary nursing home admissions or are referred for discharge and placement to a community residence. Providing technical guidance, oversight, and training to facilitate compliance with State and federal requirements. Reviewing and providing targeted instruction, learning opportunities and guidance around medically complex and/or challenging cases presented by PASRR Coordinators, OPWDD Regional Field Office staff, and/or other stakeholders and making determinations and/or referrals as needed. Working with the Bureau's Assistant Director of Nursing to develop a program for, and provision of, instructional and learning opportunities for voluntary agencies to meet a person's care needs in the community following hospitalization and skilled nursing facility stay. Detailed report writing to document areas for improving and supporting regulations and sub-regulatory guidance. Tracking people receiving specialized services in nursing homes to ensure they are being delivered and for required federal reporting. Collecting, analyzing and summarizing PASRR data for OPWDD federal reporting. Educating hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, provider agencies and care managers, and other providers on PASRR requirements, goals and processes. Working with interdisciplinary teams and providers in facilitating hospital and nursing home discharges to community settings. Partnering with other Bureau RNs to provide on-site consultation and training to voluntary providers.
