Full Job Description

La Canada is looking for an amazing individual who enjoys administrative nursing to join our Management team. The MDS nurse works closely with the IDT team to assure timely completion of the Resident Assessment Process through completion of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) and the Care Area Assessments (CAAs) This position plays a key role in improving financial operations. The MDS nurse identifies guest acuity and needs, helping to determine specific care needs and communicating needs / expectations to families and responsible parties.

This is a full time position that includes a full benefit package and competitive compensation. La Canada is a 5 star Quality Metrics facility located on the northwest side of Tucson. Please submit a resume for consideration.

MDS (or minimum data set) nurses work in long-term care facilities where they assess and monitor patient health and well-being in accordance with federal guidelines. While most MDS nurses are registered nurses (RNs), they specialize in collecting patient data and compiling this information into reports for further research and assessment. These reports are also used to develop treatment plans and evaluate the pricing and effectiveness of the facility’s patient services.

The majority of the assessment and reporting activities that MDS nurses conduct are closely related to Medicare and Medicaid guidelines, but can also include gathering data to improve the facility’s practices and patient outcomes.

MDS Nurse Skills and Qualifications

MDS nurses are vital to the operations and patient care practices of long-term care facilities, particularly those that receive federal funding or reimbursement. Nursing homes and other facilities tend to hire MDS nurses with at least an associate’s degree, MDS certification, and the following skills:

Medical assessment – MDS nurses perform patient assessment throughout the length of a patient’s stay following strict federal guidelines, so they need excellent evaluation and assessment skills
Patient care – experience providing care to patients is a necessity, since MDS nurses work with care providers and nursing staff to develop and enact care plans to enhance patient outcomes
Attention to detail – MDS nurses need a high level of attention to detail, both while conducting patient assessments and while filling out reports and Medicare and Medicaid-related documentation
Critical thinking – in this role, MDS nurses must quickly respond to changing patient circumstances and rapidly assess situations to make critical decisions about patient care
Organization skills – this role also requires a high level of organization, as MDS nurses need to adhere to strict reporting and assessment deadlines and follow procedures exactly to ensure that the facility receives federal funding and reimbursement
Communication skills – MDS nurses communicate with care staff, patients, federal agencies, and families, so they’re also effective written and verbal communicators
