Keep your Minimum Data Set (MDS) documentation organized, protected, and clearly identified with the Carstens MDS Binder for Minimum Data Sets. This side-opening, heavy-duty round ring binder is built specifically for use in long-term care, skilled nursing, and healthcare environments where durable performance and frequent access are essential. Made from BPA/BPF/BPS-free copolymer polypropylene, it resists bending, scratching, tearing, and creasing—far outperforming standard vinyl binders in both strength and longevity. Inside, Carstens' precision-engineered No-Gap steel rings are tested to open and close over 50,000 times without losing alignment—ensuring pages stay securely in place, even with heavy daily use. This side-opening binder's 4-inch round rings are built for U.S. letter-size paper punched along the 11" edge and can hold up to 600 US letter-sized sheets. Extra-long front and back covers provide full protection for standard index tab dividers, keeping documentation neat and intact throughout your facility’s workflow. The title “MDS” is permanently hot-foil stamped in silver on both the front cover and spine—highly visible from any angle and designed not to peel, fade, or rub off. This binder offers flexible storage for everything from current assessments to archived care plans.
