They (therapies) started and then they (facility) came and told me that the therapy company lost their contract so I couldn't get therapy temporarily until they got a new therapy company. I was walking some with therapy and getting stronger. Now I feel like I have lost strength since I haven't been walking. I want to get stronger to be able to walk again. Then, I can start thinking about moving back closer to home with some home health care and a housekeeper. Not having therapy has only set me back.

V3 stated the facility called and informed V3 that the facility would no longer have any rehabilitation services after 2/18/19. V3 stated, We (family) were shocked that we were not given any notice. That is the only reason (R2) went to that facility was to get therapy. It definitely caused a delay for (R2) as far as her cognition and physical strength are concerned. 3.) R3's undated Face Sheet documents R3 admitted to facility on 12/29/2023. R3's Minimum Data Set (MDS) dated [DATE] documents R3 as cognitively intact.

On 3/19/24 at 11:15 AM R3 lying in bed in room. R3 stated, I went to the hospital on [DATE] and from there I came to this facility. I came here for therapy. I started to receive Physical and Occupational Therapies and then they (facility) came in and said the therapy department would not be back. They told me this on a Friday in the middle of February. They said I would not be receiving therapy until they could get a new company. They came back and told me that a new company was supposed to start 3/1/24 but that did not occur. I came here for therapy. I was supposed to get therapy to get stronger to go back home. This has been a big problem for me. I haven't walked in years, but I have enough strength in my legs to stand. (V4) Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant (COTA) told me I was doing very well standing with (V4). I have not stood since therapy left. The staff make me use a total body mechanical lift for all transfers. They (staff) told me it is too dangerous for me to stand with them without therapy present. I can't wait to get home, but this has been a definite setback. Not getting therapy means that I am losing strength that I worked so hard to get. I must stay here for months longer than I was supposed to. It has really affected my mental state because I just lay in this bed all day worrying about how much strength I am losing because I am not able to get any therapy. 4.)
