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
interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure the transfer was appropriate and necessary for one
out of three sampled residents (Resident 1), when Resident 1 was transferred to the general acute care

This failure has the potential to negatively affect resident's needs due to unnecessary transfer.

transfer or discharge is necessary for your welfare and your needs cannot be met in the facility .
A review of Resident 1 ' s Interact Transfer Form V5, dated September 6, 2024, indicated, .transfer to

A review of the progress notes titled Interdisciplinary Team (IDT) Notes, dated September 6, 2024,
indicated, .Resident is awake and alert, verbally responsive and able to make needs known .Psychotropic
