AAPACN Resident Assessment Coordinator—Certified (RAC-CT) Certification Workshop

Increase your knowledge of clinical assessment and care planning, completion of the MDS, and the regulations surrounding the RAI/MDS process by attending an AAPACN Resident Assessment Coordinator—Certified (RAC-CT ®) certification workshop. Having the RAC-CT credential behind your name shows that you are a knowledgeable and capable MDS professional.

This certification is the most widely-recognized and respected MDS 3.0 certification available in the long-term care profession, as well as the mark of nurses who understand more than a paper form—they understand resident assessment.

Improve Your Assessment Accuracy
• Navigate tough coding dilemmas with the most current coding and regulatory knowledge
• Recover reimbursement and avoid overpayment by knowing where to find important MDS data
• Proactively solve quality pitfalls by recognizing the clues reflected in your Quality Measure and Five Star reports
• Uncover unique solutions that honor resident preference by synthesizing MDS, CAA, and care plan data into individualized interventions
