Follow these steps to complete the DOH-3122 Assisted Living Residence Medical Evaluation correctly:
- Download or access the form. Use the fillable PDF on this page or download the official DOH-3122 form from the New York State Department of Health website.
- Schedule a medical appointment. Contact the prospective resident's primary care provider. The evaluation must be completed by a licensed physician, physician assistant, or certified nurse practitioner. Allow adequate time before the planned admission date.
- Complete resident identification information. Enter the resident's full legal name, date of birth, address, and health insurance details in the fields at the top of the form.
- Document the medical history. The healthcare provider records all current diagnoses, prescribed medications with dosages, known allergies, dietary requirements, and immunization records. Tuberculosis screening results must also be included.
- Assess activities of daily living. The provider evaluates and records the resident's ability to perform daily tasks including bathing, dressing, eating, mobility, and continence management. Ratings help determine the appropriate level of assisted living care.
- Sign and submit. The licensed practitioner signs and dates the completed form. Submit the original signed form to the assisted living facility before or at the time of admission. The facility retains the form in the resident's permanent record.
