There are two common reasons why you may not be able to add a new assessment.

Firstly, check that the client has an open case (community) or has been admitted to the facility (ARC). The software requires that a client file is active before an assessment can be added. A quick way to check is to look at the patient/resident information in the top right-hand side of the screen, and check under the Date of Birth that it reads ‘Active’. Information on how to open a case for a client, or admit residents to your facility, is available in the workbook in iL&D – Unit 2: Completing assessments in the national interRAI software system.

Secondly, after checking the file is active, check your iL&D account and see if your methodology exams are up to date. If you haven't completed your methodology exams when required, your Momentum access will be changed to read-only, as you're no longer a certified interRAI assessor. The education and support team can help you resolve this.

Assessments that are marked complete after the training period can't be reopened. There is a process for you to follow so that you can make a correction to the complete assessment. Step-by-step instructions are available in your workbook in iL&D.

Find them here:

• Unit 2: Completing assessments in the national interRAI software
• Page 93: Correcting an assessment that has already been marked complete.

This error message means the person you are trying to add already has an existing file in Momentum. Try searching for the file, making sure the ‘Record Status’ is set to ‘All’. If you still can’t access the file, then you will need to have the file transferred.

• If you are in an aged residential care facility or community (not ACC) then contact your local NASC to arrange a file transfer.
• If you are working with ACC clients, then follow the ACC File Transfer Process

A common reason the assessment cannot be marked complete is due to the Assessment Reference Date (ARD) being before the date that the case was opened (community) or the resident was admitted (LTCF). The interRAI software works in a very linear fashion, and all events must be in the correct date order. When opening cases (in Case Activity) or admitting residents (in ADT), you can choose a date in the past to match the date the person started care with you. A couple of things to check:

1. The ARD in the assessment is correct
2. In LTCF, the resident has been admitted on the correct day in the software
3. In the community, the case has been opened on the correct day (commonly this would be the date the referral was received)

If these are correct, and you are still not able to mark the assessment complete, then please email interrai@tas.health.nz for additional support.

Information on how to open a case for a client, or admit residents to your facility, is available in the workbook in iL&D – Unit 2: Completing assessments in the national interRAI software system.
