upon the first availability of a bed in a semiprivate room if the resident(A) Requires the services provided by the
facility; and
(B) Is eligible for Medicare skilled nursing
facility services or Medicaid
nursing facility services.
(ii) If the facility that determines that a resident
who was transferred with an expectation of
returning to the facility, cannot return to the
facility, the facility must comply with the
requirements of paragraph (c) as they apply to
discharges.
§483.15(e)(2) Readmission to a composite
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 interview and record review , the
facility failed to ensure one of three residents
(Resident 1) was readmitted to the facility after
a hospitalization.
Findings:
Resident 1's clinical record was reviewed.
Resident 1 was admitted to the facility with
diagnoses including Alzheimer's disease (an
irreversible, progressive brain disorder that
slowly destroys memory, thinking skills, and
eventually the ability to carry out the simple
tasks).

Review of Resident 1's progress notes
indicated, on 3/13/18, at 12:45 p.m., Resident 1
was scheduled for a computed tomography
(CT scan, use of computer-processed
combinations of many X-ray measurements
taken from different angles) due to worsening
behavior such as uncooperative, combative,
and refusal of care. Resident 1 was transferred
to a psychiatric emergency service facility for
evaluation via 911.
During an interview with the administrator (AD),
on 4/24/18, at 9:00 a.m., she indicated on
4/18/18, the facility received a referral from the
acute care hospital for Resident 1's
readmission. The referral form indicated
Resident 1 would need a long term skilled
nursing facility (SNF) with a dementia (memory
loss) unit and in a locked SNF (safety
measures for dementia). The AD stated the
facility did not have a locked unit for dementia
residents. She also stated she was advised by
the legal department not to take Resident 1
back to the facility. The AD confirmed, on
4/20/18, she received psychiatry notes
indicating Resident 1 did not require a locked
facility but instead Resident 1 would require a
Wanderguard (a monitoring system used by a
facility to know residents' whereabouts.). She
acknowledged the facility could provide a
Wanderguard for Resident 1, but they still
refused to accept Resident 1 due to safety
concerns of going through other residents'
rooms and out to the street.
Review of Psychiatry Inpatient Consultation
service notes dated 4/20/18, at 1:43 p.m.,
indicated Resident 1's disposition back to
skilled nursing did not require a locked facility
and it would be sufficient that Resident 1 use a
Wanderguard to ensure Resident 1 would not
exit the facility unsupervised.
