Presentation: ”People Living with Serious Mental Health Conditions in Nursing Homes: Stakeholder Perspectives on the Federal Preadmission Screening Program (PASRR)”
The federal Preadmission Screening and Resident Review (PASRR) program was enacted in the 1980s amid concerns surrounding the quality of nursing home (NH) care. This program is meant to serve as a tool to assist with level of care determinations for nursing home applicants with serious mental health conditions (SMHC) and was intended to limit the growth in the number of nursing home residents with SMHC. Despite this policy effort, the prevalence of SMHC in nursing homes has continued to increase, and little is known about the mechanisms behind the limitations of the PASRR program. This presentation shares results of 20 semi-structured interviews conducted with state and national stakeholders to identify factors affecting PASRR program administration and nursing home care for residents with SMHC.
