facility, the facility must comply with the
requirements of paragraph (c) as they apply to
discharges.

distinct part. When the facility to which a
resident returns is a composite distinct part (as
defined in § 483.5), the resident must be
permitted to return to an available bed in the
particular location of the composite distinct part
in which he or she resided previously. If a bed
is not available in that location at the time of
return, the resident must be given the option to
return to that location upon the first availability
of a bed there.
This REQUIREMENT is not met as evidenced
by:
Based on interviews and record reviews, the
facility failed to readmit one (Resident 1) of
three residents discharged from the hospital
who was ready to return to the facility. This
failure resulted in Resident 1 requiring a longer
hospitalization stay when medical care was not
necessary and kept Resident 1 away from his
home.
Findings:
A review of the Resident 1 admission record
revealed that Resident 1 was admitted to the
facility on 5/16/18 and had diagnoses to include
Alzheimer's dementia (brain disorder that
causes problems with memory, thinking and
behavior).
During a review of the nurse's notes, it
indicated on 11/17/18 at 3:03 p.m., Resident 1
exhibited aggressive behavior, yelling,
shouting, hitting a staff member, throwing
objects to staff and threatening to hit other
residents. Resident 1 refused to take routine
