What Is an RN Assessment?

An RN assessment is an in-home evaluation conducted by our Registered Nurse to determine the level of support a senior needs.
This assessment is required for all new clients to ensure care is appropriate and safe.

The RN assessment may include:

• Review of health history and current conditions

• Baseline vitals if needed

• Mobility and transfer evaluation

• Cognitive and memory screening

• Fall-risk and safety assessment

• Behavioral or dementia-related observations

• Daily routine review

• Family interview

• Home safety walk-through

Personalized RN-Created Care Plans

After the assessment, our RN creates a customized care plan outlining exactly how caregivers should assist the client.

Care plans may include:

• Daily routines

• Personal care instructions

• Safety guidelines

• Mobility and transfer steps

• Dementia-care strategies

• Emergency instructions

• Client preferences

• Caregiver reminders and notes

These plans are updated whenever the client’s condition or needs change.
