Not allowing Resident 1 to return to her residence had the potential for psychosocial harm. Findings: On 7/26/19 at 0948 hours, a telephone interview was conducted with Resident 1's family member. Resident 1's family member stated the resident had been in the acute care hospital for three months. The resident's family member stated they were told the facility did not have a bed available due to Resident 1 having an infection which required a private isolation room and did not want other residents to get infected. Resident 1's family member stated Resident 1 had lived at the facility for five years, it was her home, and wanted Resident 1 to return to the facility. Review of the facility's P&P titled Bed Hold Notification dated 1/2004 showed the facility shall readmit a Medicaid resident requiring SNF services immediately upon the first availability of a bed in a semiprivate room when his/her hospitalization or therapeutic leave exceeds the bed hold period.
