summary may be provided in printed or electronic format. If in electronic format, the receiving provider will
acknowledge there is a way to receive and access the discharge summary electronically. 5. The medical
record contains a copy of the discharge summary with the identity of the recipient of the summary. In

the resident's stay at the facility (a concise summary of the resident's stay and course of treatment in the
facility); b. a final summary of the resident's status at the time of the discharge available for release to
authorized individuals and agencies, with the consent of the resident or representative.In section titled
Discharge Planning: 1. Every resident has an individualized discharge plan, which begins at admission and

interdisciplinary team with the assistance of the resident and the representative to develop interventions to
meet the resident's discharge goals and needs that must be addressed before the resident can be safely
discharged (e.g., caregiver support and education, rehabilitation, etc.). 4. The discharge plan is based on
the resident assessment, the goals for care, the desire for discharge and the resident's capacity for
discharge. 5. Discharge planning identifies the discharge destination, and ensures that it meets the
resident's health and safety needs, as well as preferences. 7. A member of the IDT reviews the final
discharge plan with the resident and family at least twenty-four (24) hours before the discharge is to take
place. 8. The final discharge plan of care shows what arrangements have been made for the resident
regarding: a. where the resident will live after leaving the facility; b. follow-up care the resident will receive
