The Resident Assessment Coordinator-Certification (RAC-CT) is specifically designed for professionals in the long-term care industry, especially those involved in the MDS/RAI process. These processes ensure accurate and comprehensive assessments of residents’ health conditions, care needs, and plans. RAC-CT completion demonstrates a high level of expertise and skill in care planning, managing PDPM, and billing/ coding, among other things that can’t be replicated elsewhere, making it an essential credential for long-term care professionals.

Why RAC-CT Certification is Important

The importance of the RAC-CT certification cannot be overstated. It shows that the certified individual deeply understands the RAI/MDS processes, including the latest updates and changes. It also demonstrates that the individual has the necessary skills to accurately assess residents’ needs and develop appropriate care plans to meet them. With the increasing demand for quality long-term care services, the RAC-CT certification provides a competitive edge to professionals seeking to advance their careers within the industry.
