On 5-18-2025 at 12:50pm V1 said, the bed hold policy should be given with explanation when a resident is sent out to the hospital, my expectation is that the staff will document it in the electronic medical record, we do not have any documentation that indicate that R2 received the bed hold notification.

On 5-19-2025 at 1:30pm V14 (Assistant Director of Nursing) said, when we transfer a resident to hospital, we will give a copy of the 10 days bed hold policy.
