Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Residents Affected - Few
Not transfer or discharge a resident without an adequate reason; and must provide documentation and
convey specific information when a resident is transferred or discharged.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
medical record review, staff interviews, and policy review, the facility failed to allow a resident to remain in
the facility and not transfer or discharge the resident without justification and proper documentation. This
affected one (#61) resident out of three residents reviewed for transfer and discharge. The facility census
was 53.
Findings include:
Review of the closed medical record for Resident #61 revealed an admission date of 05/27/21 and a
discharge date of 08/20/24. Diagnoses included unspecified psychosis not due to a substance or known
physiological condition, vascular dementia, unspecified severity, without behavioral disturbance, psychotic
disturbance, mood disturbance, and anxiety, anxiety disorder, bipolar disorder, and alcohol use, unspecified
with alcohol-induced persisting dementia.
Review of the quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment, dated 07/01/24, revealed Resident #61 had
moderately impaired cognition. Resident #61 was assessed to be independent for eating, oral hygiene,
toileting, bathing, dressing, personal hygiene, bed mobility, and transfer.
Review of the progress notes from 07/01/24 to 08/20/24 revealed no documentation related to discussion of
transfer or discharge with Resident #61's guardian.
Review of the incomplete Discharge summary dated [DATE] revealed Resident #61 was discharged to
another nursing home. The summary indicated the reason for discharge was being incompatible with other
residents on unit.
Interview on 09/10/24 at 5:47 P.M. via telephone with Resident #61's guardian revealed he had not been
involved in the discharge process. Resident #61's guardian stated the facility contacted him and informed
him of concerns with Resident #61's behaviors, and he believed the facility did not want Resident #61 to
remain a resident there. Resident #61's guardian reported he was unaware Resident #61 was being
transferred to another facility until he was called to meet with staff and Resident #61 at the proposed new
facility because Resident #61 had refused to stay. Resident #61's guardian also revealed that Resident #61
was returned to the facility and was ultimately transferred to another facility days later.
Interview on 09/11/24 at 11:38 A.M. with the Director of Nursing (DON) revealed Resident #61's behaviors
had escalated, and the decision was made after speaking with the guardian to transfer Resident #61 for
safety reasons.
