MDS 2.0 Kardex

You can add resident-specific details to the resident's Kardex in addition to the pre-populated MDS assessment information by using MDS 2.0 Kardex. The MDS assessment information is based on the last completed Admission, Quarterly, Annual, or Significant Change in Status assessment type. You can edit and insert information about a specific resident, for example, a personalized bathing schedule.

The information you enter into the MDS 2.0 Kardex option appears in the Kardex Report. You can access this report by clicking the krdx link next to the MDS assessment, or accessing the Reports portal. The Kardex Report is a one-page document that can be printed and used by care staff to provide resident care based on recent MDS assessment information.
