MDS Coordinator, Consultant, & Educator

Hey, I'm Connie Jones —

I didn't actually set out to be an MDS coordinator. In the beginning, I set out to simply care for people. My career began as a CNA while raising my first child at 18 and earning my degree. From there, I worked my way through nursing roles, became an MDS coordinator, and eventually led corporate-level care management across multiple states.

What I discovered along the way is that MDS touches everything — compliance, reimbursement, quality measures, even staff confidence. I became "addicted" to understanding every detail, and more importantly, I realized my passion wasn't just in doing the work, but in teaching and mentoring others. That's what inspired me to create CSJ MDS Resource Group: a partner facilities can rely on to strengthen their processes and their people.

To strengthen skilled nursing facilities through expert MDS consulting, education, and mentorship — protecting reimbursement and improving outcomes for every resident.

Why This Work Matters

Credentials & Expertise

Credentials & Expertise

Partnership, not oversight


The truth is, most facilities don't call me until they're already facing citations, denials, or survey stress. But with a strong MDS process we're not just trying to avoid problems — we're trying to create lasting systems that safeguard both dollars and residents.

I approach every engagement as a partner, not a watchdog. My role is to simplify the complex, support your team, and build confidence. When staff feel equipped, compliance improves, reimbursement is protected, and residents benefit from higher-quality care.
