What is a PRI?
A Patient Review Instrument (PRI) is a medical evaluation tool that identifies whether or not an individual is eligible for skilled nursing care placement. In addition to the PRI, in New York State, the “Screen” is required to determine the persons ability to be cared for in a setting other than a skilled nursing facility . The PRI and Screen is used to determine the level of care and appropriateness of placement.
Registered Nurse
The PRI can only be done by a Registered Nurse who is certified as a PRI Assessor. Pinnacle Senior Care Solutions has NYS Licensed Registered Nurse’s to provide these services and to help make sure there is proper placement of your loved one in the appropriate level of care.
