Based on HCFA’s Resident Assessment Instrument (RAI) User’s Manual for use by long-term care facilities, this SourceBook is really a series of in-services aimed at helping caregivers provide the best possible care. While nursing assistants do not document on the RAI tool itself, their input is invaluable to the members of the care plan team who do assess, plan, and document care. One of our most comprehensive SourceBooks!

• HCFA's MDS Manual
