Ensure the transfer/discharge meets the resident's needs/preferences and that the resident is prepared for
a safe transfer/discharge.
Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to arrange for a safe and orderly discharge for one
of two sampled residents (Resident 7) when the facility failed to communicate Resident 7's medical
conditions and needs to Intermediate Care Facility (ICF, provides long-term care for individuals who need
more assistance than residential care but less than a skilled nursing facility) 1 prior to Resident 7's transfer
to ICF 1. This failure had the potential for Resident 7 to experience an unsafe discharge due to receiving
inappropriate and or inadequate care.Findings: During a review of Resident 7's admission Record (AR), the
AR indicated the facility admitted Resident 7 on 8/8/2025 with diagnoses including acute kidney failure (a
condition in which the kidneys suddenly can't filter waste from the blood), malignant melanoma of skin (skin
cancer), and dysphagia (difficulty swallowing foods or liquids). During a review of Resident 7's Minimum
Data Set (MDS, a resident assessment tool), dated 8/14/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 7 was severely
impaired in cognitive skills (ability to make daily decisions). The MDS indicated Resident 7 was dependent
(helper does all the effort) on staff for bathing and required substantial/maximal assistance (helper does
more than half the effort) from staff for dressing, toileting, and personal hygiene. During a telephone
interview on 10/22/2025 at 1:12 PM with the Administrator (ADM) from ICF 1, ADM stated the ADM was
expecting Resident 1 to come to ICF 1 and was in contact with Resident 7's sister several weeks prior to
Resident 7's discharge from the facility. The ADM stated when Resident 7 arrived to ICF 1 on 10/6/2025,
ICF 1 staff assessed Resident 7 and realized ICF 1 could not accept Resident 7 to ICF 1 because Resident
7 had bed sores and a tumor on the neck that looked infected. The ADM stated Resident 7 was sent to a
General Acute Care Hospital (GACH) 1 for the infected tumor on the neck. The ADM stated it was not
appropriate for Resident 7 to be at ICF 1 because ICF 1 was an ICF/DD-H (Intermediate Care Facility for
the Developmentally Disabled-Habilitative). The ADM stated Resident 7 needed to be at an ICF/DD-N
(Intermediate Care Facility for the Developmentally Disabled-Nursing) facility due to Resident 7's medical
needs. The ADM stated the ADM had not received any transfer paperwork from the facility prior to Resident
1 being discharged to ICF 1 and that the ADM did not realize ICF 1 was not an appropriate facility for
Resident 7. The ADM stated the facility did not communicate Resident 7's needs to ICF 1 prior to
discharging Resident 1 to ICF 1 on 10/6/2025. During an interview on 10/23/2025 at 9:15 AM with the Case
Manager (CM), the CM stated the CM was responsible for arranging the discharge of Resident 7. The CM
stated a fax confirmation would be the evidence the CM communicated Resident 7's medical condition and
needs to ICF 1. The CM stated the CM did not have a fax confirmation that the facility communicated
Resident 7's needs prior to Resident 7's discharge to ICF 1. The CM confirmed the CM did not call ICF 1 to
communicate Resident 7's medical needs prior to Resident 7's discharge to ICF 1. During a review of the
facility's Policy and Procedure (P&P) titled, Transfer and Discharge, Resident -Initiated, dated October
2025, the P&P indicated: 1. If the resident is being transferred. and return is expected, the following
information is conveyed to the receiving provider:a. Contact information of the practitioner who was
responsible for the care of the resident;b. Resident representative information, including contact
information;c. Advance directive information;d. All special instructions and/or precautions for ongoing care,
as appropriate such as:(1) treatments and devices (oxygen, implants, IVs, tubes/catheters);(2)
transmission-based precautions such as contact, droplet. or airborne; and(3) special risks such as risk for
falls, elopement, bleeding, or pressure injury and/or aspiration precautions:e. The resident's comprehensive
care plan goals:f. All other information necessary to meet the resident's needs, which includes. but may not
be limited to:(1) resident status, including baseline and current mental, behavioral,
