PRI Training Outline

Training is provided to allow a Registered Nurse (RN) to complete the Patient Review Instrument (PRI) and the Hospital/Community (H/C) PRI. These are clinical tools to assess a person's condition. The PRI is necessary for Medicaid reimbursement in nursing facilities. The H/C PRI is required for admission to a nursing facility, for hospital residents on ALC status, and for various other programs.

The course is especially for RNs in nursing facilities, hospitals (discharge planners or ALC determinations) or in community settings responsible for nursing facility placement. Social workers or other professional staff may find the training useful to understand the process and impact.

Assessor numbers, required to complete the form, will be granted only to RNs who successfully complete the program. This educational activity has been approved by the New York State Nurses Association for 8.7 continuing nursing education contact hours to be given to registered nurses who complete the PRI, H/C PRI training course.
