CMS s RAI Version Manual CH 4: PROCEDURES for COMPLETING RAPs Revised--December 2002 Page 4-1 CHAPTER 4: PROCEDURES FOR COMPLETING THE resident assessment PROTOCOLS (RAPs) AND LINKING THE assessment TO THE CARE PLAN This CHAPTER provides instructions on how to use the resident assessment Protocols (RAPs) to assess conditions identified by the Minimum Data Set (MDS) triggering mechanism. The goal of the RAPs is to guide the interdisciplinary team through a structured comprehensive assessment of a resident s functional status. Functional status differs from medical or clinical status in that the whole of a person s life is reviewed with the intent of assisting that person to function at his or her highest practicable level of well-being. Going through the RAI process will help staff set resident -specific objectives in order to meet the physical, mental and psychosocial needs of residents.
