A Notice of Transfer or Discharge (NTD) was not provided to Resident 1 and/or to Resident 1's representative (RP) when Resident 1 was transferred to General Acute Care Hospital (GACH) 1 on 1/3/2026.2. A copy of an NTD was not sent to the Ombudsman (an advocate for residents of nursing homes, board and care centers, and assisted living facilities) when Resident 1 was transferred to General Acute Care Hospital (GACH) 1 on 1/3/2026.These deficiencies had the potential to violate Resident 1's right to not be inappropriately transferred or discharged and had the potential for the Ombudsman to not be able to advocate for Resident 1 from being inappropriately transferred or discharged .(cross reference F627)Findings:During a review of Resident 1's admission Record (AR), the admission Record indicated SNF 1 originally admitted Resident 1 on 12/10/2024, and readmitted on [DATE] with diagnoses including hemiplegia (total paralysis of the arm, leg, and trunk on the same side of the body) and hemiparesis (a weakness or partial paralysis affecting one side of the body) following cerebral infarction (damage to brain tissue caused by loss of blood flow to a part of the brain), and dementia (a progressive state of decline in mental abilities).During a review of Resident 1's History and Physical (H&P, physician's clinical evaluation and examination of the resident), dated 10/6/2025, the H&P indicated Resident 1 did not have the capacity to understand and make decisions.During a review of Resident 1's Minimum Data Set (MDS, a resident assessment tool), dated 1/3/2026, the MDS indicated Resident 1 was severely impaired in cognitive skills (ability to make daily decisions) and required partial/moderate assistance (helper does less than half the effort to complete the activity) for most activities of daily living (ADLs- activities such as bathing, dressing and toileting a person performs daily).During a review of Resident 1's Physician's Telephone Orders (PTO), dated 1/3/2026 at 6:30 PM, the PTO indicated to transfer Resident 1 to a hospital via 911 (emergency number to request the services of the police, fire department, paramedics, ambulance).During a review of Resident 1's SBAR (situation, background, assessment, recommendation-a communication tool used by healthcare workers when there is a change of condition among the residents) Communication Form, dated 1/3/2026, the SBAR indicated Registered Nurse (RN) 2 received an order from Resident 1's physician to transfer Resident 1 to a GACH via 911 due to altered mental status (AMS-a change in a person's thinking, awareness, or consciousness, causing confusion, reduced alertness, or unusual behavior), and desaturation (a drop in blood oxygen saturation levels below normal, usually falling under 90%) on 1/3/2026 at 6:30 PM.During a review of Resident 1's Progress Notes (PN), dated 1/3/2026, the PN indicated Resident 1 was transferred to GACH 1 by 911 on 1/3/2026 at 7:15 PM due to AMS, increased respiration (rapid and shallow breathing, often resulting from conditions like lung infection, asthma, or anxiety), and desaturation.During a review of Resident 1's medical record, there was no NTD found in the medical record regarding Resident 1's transfer to GACH 1 on 1/3/2026.During a telephone interview on 2/3/2026 at 11:40 AM with Registered Nurse (RN) 2, RN 2 stated RN 2 should have completed the NTD form and faxed the NTD form to the ombudsman after Resident 1 was transferred to GACH 1 on 1/3/2026.During a telephone interview on 2/3/2026 at 11:13 PM with the Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON), the ADON reviewed Resident 1's medical record and stated the ADON was unable to find an NTD form in Resident 1's medical record. The ADON stated it was important to complete the NTD form, to inform the resident and the resident's family of the resident's transfer or discharge, and to fax the NTD to the ombudsman prior to the resident's transfer or discharge.During a review of the facility's policy and procedure (P&P) titled, Transfer or (continued on next page) FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 555395 If continuation sheet Page 3 of 4 Printed: 05/15/2026 Form Approved OMB No. 0938-0391 Department of Health & Human Services Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services STATEMENT OF DEFICIENCIES AND PLAN OF CORRECTION (X1) PROVIDER/SUPPLIER/CLIA IDENTIFICATION NUMBER: (X2) MULTIPLE CONSTRUCTION 555395 B.
