Review of the facility's policy titled Bed Hold Policy, last revised on 11/18/16, revealed the campus would properly inform the residents in advance of their option to make a bed-hold payment and the amount of the facilities bed hold charge. The policy further revealed the purpose of the policy was to follow all state and federal guidelines related to therapeutic bed hold. Based on record review, review of facility policy and staff interview, the facility failed to notify the resident's and/or resident representatives of the facilities bed hold policy when the resident discharged to the hospital.
