Illinois Preadmission Screening and Resident Review (PASRR)
Level I screens and completing Level II Serious Mental Illness (SMI) evaluations for individuals applying to, or residing in, Medicaid-certified nursing facilities. The federally mandated PASRR screening and assessment are used to determine whether the nursing facility is the appropriate placement for individuals with mental illness, intellectual disabilities, or developmental disabilities. PASRR also works as a critical function to help match individuals with the care and services they need.

Transitional Assessments are conducted in-person with Colbert Class Members in Cook County Nursing facilities and Williams Class Members in SMHRF facilities interested in transitioning to the community.
