Please do not mark more than one letter (I,V,P) for each
objective. If you have to verbally remind the client to take a shower, but they
were able to shower on their own, they will receive a “V” for the objective.
The narrative is where it should be indicated that you verbally prompted
however, the client was able to complete task independently. If you start the
water or measure out soap and shampoo, they will receive a “P” for the
objective. Likewise, indicate in the narrative what assistance was given. As
case managers, we review documentation quarterly and if the client is able to
complete the objective successfully 80% of time we will remove the objective.
