Note: Long-term care facilities are transitioning from submitting assessment records via the interRAI-CCRS system to the newer interRAI-IRRS system. Most still use interRAI-CCRS, so B.C. values are based on interRAI-CCRS. Some Interior Health sites have already switched to interRAI-IRRS, resulting in no CCRS assessments for those locations—those cells are left blank in the data file.
