Ensure the transfer/discharge meets the resident's needs/preferences and that the resident is prepared for
a safe transfer/discharge.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure that an involuntary discharge was not based on the
residents' condition at the time of transfer to acute care and failed to provide physician's documentation of
the reasons a resident was involuntarily discharged from the facility in the resident's medical record. These
deficient practices affected two of three residents (R1 and R4) reviewed for involuntary discharge. 1. R1
was admitted to the facility on [DATE] and was discharged to the hospital on 9/28/2025 and was not allowed
to return to the facility. R1 was petitioned for involuntary discharge and was also served a 30-day notice for
involuntary transfer and discharge. Progress notes dated 9/28/2025 2:39 a.m. document R1 stated am
depressed because my sister died and want to go to the hospital. R1 also stated that R1 cut herself with
scissors and was observed with bleeding on R1's right wrist. R1 was sent to the hospital via 911 and
returned the same day with stitches to her right wrist, was placed on 1:1 and was petitioned for involuntary
discharge to another hospital for psychiatric evaluation. R1 was also issued an Involuntary Discharge and
was not allowed to return to the facility. Minimum Data Sheet dated 8/1/2025 under Section E: Behaviors
did not document any physical behavioral symptoms directed toward others such as hitting, kicking,
pushing, scratching, grabbing, abusing others sexually; verbal behavioral symptoms directed toward others
such as threatening others, screaming at others, cursing at others; and other behavioral symptoms not
directed toward others (e.g. physical symptoms such as hitting or scratching self, pacing, rummaging, public
sexual acts, disrobing in public, throwing or smearing food or bodily wastes, or verbal/vocal symptoms like
screaming, disruptive sounds). On 2/6/2026 at 11:23 am. V4, R1's Legal Guardian, stated the facility called
her on 9/28/2025 to let her know that R1 had wanted to kill herself because she found out that R1's sister
passed away untimely. They also let her know that R1 cannot return to the facility anymore because R1
needed 24-hour care because she would take scissors and stab herself. V4 stated V4 was happy with R1's
stay in the facility because she had friends in the facility and that the facility takes good care of R1 and she
would have liked for R1 to return to the facility instead of being transferred to a different facility. On 2/6/2026
at 1:48 p.m. V2, Director of Nursing, stated R1 has a diagnosis of depression, R1 doesn't have any
behavior, R1 is not aggressive to other residents, does not engage fights with other residents. R1 is not a
threat to the other residents in this facility. To my knowledge, the nurse and Certified Nursing Assistant/CNA
made rounds that day on 9/28/2025, the resident pulled her call light and R1 had scissors and hurt her
wrist using the scissors. R1 is not allowed to have scissors in her room. This was previously investigated
already. This was more like a cry for help from R1. On 2/6/2026 at 2:12 p.m., V1, Administrator, stated R1
was served the Notice for Involuntary Transfer and Discharge because R1 harmed herself and how can I
protect her if she conceals scissors and she can harm herself again. I don't feel she's a danger to other
residents. I think she is a harm to herself. Facility presented a document titled

Notice of Involuntary Transfer or Discharge and Opportunity for Hearing dated 9/29/2025; addressed to R1
and V4, R1's Legal Guardian; signed by the previous social services director who is not employed by the
facility anymore. The form documents that the reason for this proposed transfer or discharge is the safety of
individuals in this facility is endangered, 483.15 (c)(1)(i)(C). R1's electronic health records exclude any
documentation from the physician regarding the reason for involuntary discharge and how the safety of
individuals in this facility is endangered because of R1. It also excludes any behavior that endangers the
safety of other residents in the facility.2. R4 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] and was discharged to
the hospital on 1/27/2026 and was not allowed to return to the facility. R4 was petitioned for involuntary
discharge and was also served a 30-day notice for involuntary transfer and discharge.Progress notes dated
1/27/2026 4:21 p.m. document: Staff observed R4 smoking in a non-designated area. When staff
addressed the behavior, he became verbally aggressive and refuse(sic) to be redirected, he presents as a
threat and harmful to self and others. This behavior may be influenced by symptoms associated with her
diagnosis of paranoid schizophrenia, including impaired judgment and difficulty with impulse control. Due to
concerns regarding a decline in his mental and physical status, nursing staff contacted his physician, who
recommended further evaluation. R4 was subsequently petitioned, with IVD (Involuntary Transfer and
Discharge) initiated and bed-hold policy notification completed. He was transported to the local hospital for
further assessment and treatment.Review of R4's electronic health record affirms that R4 has been
observed to be smoking in non-designated areas for smoking multiple times and has a behavior contract
addressing this behavior. R4 also exhibits profanity towards staff and aggressive behaviors toward staff and
peers.On 2/6/2026 at 11:45 a.m., V5, Social Services Director, stated R4 was presented with the Notice of
Involuntary Transfer or Discharge and Opportunity for Hearing, which V5 completed and signed, because
the facility cannot accommodate the smoking times that R4 needs. R4 needs supervision when smoking
because of mobility and safety and has violated the facility smoking policy at least three times during his
stay. V5 stated she filled out the form and then gives it to the nursing department to notify the physician and
hospital for necessary paperwork and documentation.On 2/6/2026 at 2:12 p.m. V1, Administrator, stated R4
is very non-compliant, is very bold, will tell you right in the face that he loves using marijuana and will not
stop smoking. The reason he is being served the Involuntary Transfer and Discharge Notice is because R4
on multiple times has been caught smoking inside the facility and even engages other residents with him in
his room to join him to smoke. V1 cannot provide physician documentation regarding reason for the
proposed discharge of R4.Facility presented a document titled Notice of Involuntary Transfer or Discharge
and Opportunity for Hearing dated 1/27/2026; addressed to R4 and R4's Representative; signed by V5,
Social Services Director. The form documents that the reason for this proposed transfer or discharge is your
welfare and needs cannot be met by the facility, as documented in your clinical record by your physician,
483.15 (c)(1)(i)(A). R4's electronic health records exclude any documentation from the physician regarding
the reason for involuntary discharge, what services the facility was unable to provide to meet the needs of
R4 and what the facility attempted to meet the R4's needs aside from the Smoking Behavior Contract.
