Changes to OASIS have always increased stress for all organizational levels. Waiting until the end of the year to educate staff collides with the holiday season - a time that is very busy for agencies under normal circumstances. It is important to keep perspective. Not every item in OASIS E is “new” as many of the current items remain in the updated tool. That being said, items related to the functional assessment have been a source of frustration for both clinicians and reviewers as they are a consistent area where corrections are needed. Effectively preparing for OASIS E must include a focus on dealing with issues related to the “old” items in a way that reduces errors in 2022. This increases the ability of the organization to address the “new” items as implementation draws closer and minimize errors and corrections in 2023.

• Session 3 - OASIS E Prep: New Items Part 1
  • (Summary - objectives coming later in 2022) Incorporate the assessment skills needed to collect accurate data for the items that are new in OASIS E.
