651 CMR 12.00 · Massachusetts Executive Office of Elder Affairs (EOEA) · checked July 2026Recording it, not just doing it
Massachusetts states no deadline we have verified, so this sheet does not invent one. It records the orientation, what the resident needs in an evacuation, and who is responsible for them — which is what the rule above asks you to hold. The staff training record is the other half of the same request — we have not published a Massachusetts page for it, and both feed the Massachusetts readiness sheet.
It stays on your device
Mobility and assistance needs are health information about a named person. Nothing typed here is sent anywhere, and the shared building record keeps only the date an orientation happened — never what the sheet said about the resident.
