(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 permit one of two residents
(Resident 1) to return to the facility after
hospitalization. Resident 1 was not offered the
first available bed after the facility was informed
that Resident 1 was ready for discharge and
wanted to go back to the facility.
This failure resulted in Resident 1 not being
permitted to return to her home of two years.
Resident 1 felt anxious and afraid of being
discharge to an unknown location.
Findings:
Review of an undated Face Sheet, indicated
Resident 1 was admitted to the facility on
9/5/15 and was discharged on 9/27/17 with
diagnoses that included Pressure ulcer (areas
of damaged skin caused by staying in one
position for too long) of right buttock. The Face
Sheet indicated "Discharge Status: Return
