We have been going through extensive training on what to expect with the new
PPS and rehab - new forms, revised FIMS, etc. We have been faced with the
probability of working on Sat and Sundays, because of the need for a 3 day
observation period. If a patient is admitted on Friday, which would be day
number one, then Sat and Sun are days 2 and 3 and need to be evaluated for a
FIM. Also, if a person is admitted on Sat or Sun, they need to be evaluated
that day since those are considered Day 1. Are we understanding all of this
correctly? How are other people handling Sat. and Sun. coverage in this
matter? Thanks in advance.
