hold periods, which must be consistent with
paragraph (c)(5) of this section, permitting a
resident to return; and
(iv) The information specified in paragraph (c)
(5) of this section.
(2) Bed-hold notice upon transfer. At the time
of transfer of a resident for hospitalization or
therapeutic leave, a nursing facility must
provide to the resident and the resident
representative written notice which specifies
the duration of the bed-hold policy described in
paragraph (e)(1) of this section.
This REQUIREMENT is not met as evidenced
by:
Based on staff interview and clinical record
review, the facility failed to ensure a bed hold
notice was issued timely for Resident 1. This
failure increased the potential for the
Resident's representative to be uninformed
regarding bed hold rights.
Findings:
Resident 1 was admitted to the facility on
11/17/16, with diagnoses including early onset
of Alzheimer's Disease. On 3/23/17 Resident 1
displayed a behavioral episode which included
throwing silverware during lunch time in the
facility's dining room. On 3/23/17 at 12:45
p.m., Resident 1 was transferred to the General
Acute Care Hospital (GACH) with the
assistance of the police department and
ambulance staff.
Review of the clinical record revealed a written
bed-hold notification was not issued to
Resident 1's representative until 3/28/17, 5
days after Resident 1 was transferred to the
GACH. There was no documentation which
indicated a bed-hold notice accompanied the

Administrator (FA) on 6/7/17 at 11:30 a.m. The

issued at the time of discharge and the written
notice was not generated until 5 days after
discharge.
