Embarking on the journey into assisted living can be a significant transition for individuals and their families. The New York State Department of Health Division of Assisted Living formulates an essential document in this process, known as the Assisted Living Residence Medical Evaluation, or form 3122. This comprehensive form is a cornerstone for ensuring that individuals receive the appropriate level of care and support within assisted living facilities. It meticulously captures a range of critical health information, including vital signs, medical diagnoses, allergies, dietary needs, immunization records, and screening results, such as for tuberculosis. The evaluation extends to assess the resident's capability in handling medications, their cognitive and mental health status, as well as their ability to perform activities of daily living (ADLs). Additionally, it delves into the necessity and nature of any required additional services or therapies and contemplates the aptness of palliative care. The physician's certification at the conclusion of the document underscores the resident's suitability for an assisted living environment relative to their physical and mental health needs, confirming that they do not require the constant medical care typical of more intensive facilities. This integral form bridges critical health information and facility capabilities, ensuring residents are placed in a setting conducive to their well-being and lifestyle.
