Does the PAS-CIS assessment have to be conducted by a Registered Nurse?

No. Approved providers can allocate the responsibility to any staff member they consider to be suitably trained and/or skilled to conduct the assessment. You should note however, that the circumstances in which an approved provider has discretion not to report allegations or suspicions of reportable assaults are specified in Part 5 of the Accountability Principles 1998.

The discretion can be exercised only if, before receipt of the allegation or the start of the suspicion, the care recipient who may have committed the assault had been assessed by an appropriate health professional, such as a geriatrician, other medical practitioner or registered nurse, as suffering from a cognitive or mental impairment.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
