resident's care.

assistance of the resident and his or her family and includes: a. where the individual plans to reside; b.
arrangements that have been made for follow-up care and services; 12. A copy of the following is provided

Interview on 09/12/2024 at 1:57 PM with the Social Worker revealed she was responsible for resident
discharge planning. She said the ADON and herself were responsible for the Discharge Summary. She said
she would look at the Progress notes to look for the date of discharge. She said the previous social worker
may have forgotten to make a copy of the Discharge Summary. She said she was not sure what his
admission status was and was not sure why he was discharged . She said she thought it may have been
the resident's decision to discharge from the facility. She said the ADON might know why he was
discharged . She said it was her 4th day at the facility. She said her role at the facility was as the social
worker was to participate in Care Plan meetings, and discharge planning, and weekly Medicare meetings.
She said she was not familiar with Resident #18. She said the policy or procedure for discharge planning
was to meet with resident and or family members within 48 hours of admission and ensured everyone knew
what the plan was and agreed to it, set up home health, ensured the resident had the proper equipment
and she coordinated with therapy on that. She said the information that

was required on discharge summary was things like home health or rehab, what equipment and where it
was from, community resources, who was doing housekeeping, social support system, who their PCP and
pharmacy were as well as their transportation needs, the discharge location, a contact, and the reason for
discharge. She said she made 3-4 follow up calls after a discharge, but if the resident was going to another
facility she would not make follow up calls. The follow up calls were only if residents were going back home.
She said she had training on discharge planning when she previously worked at the facility. She said she
would guess the DON or ADON were responsible for oversight to ensure staff was following protocol. She
said the risk to residents if policy or procedures were not followed would be residents may not have their
needs fully met once they were at their discharge location. She said the worst thing that could happen to a
resident if policy or procedures were not followed was the resident may have access to things that would
facilitate them to remain in their home.
Interview on 09/12/2024 at 2:05 PM with the Rehab Director revealed the resident was always planned to
go to another facility from the hospital and stay a while. She said Resident #18 and the family initiated the
discharge. He was not set to leave when originally planned and the resident left earlier than what the facility
had scheduled . She said Resident #18 was planned to discharge in a week, but the family came to get the
resident 3 days later.
Interview on 09/12/2024 at 2:011 PM with the LVN-ADON revealed she said when a resident left a facility, it
was because they met skilled requirements. She said the social worker wrote the discharge summary. She
said she was not aware of a Discharge Summary document. She was shown a copy of the Plan of
Discharge document and she said the charge nurse should write the nursing part of the discharge. She
said she had worked at the facility for 5 years in January. She said part of her role was to complete the Post
Discharge Plan of Care. She said she was familiar with Resident #18. She said the policy or procedure for
discharge summaries/discharge planning was the social worker initiated the Post Discharge Plan of Care
and she the ADON completed the nursing part of it including diet. She did not know what the Discharge
Summary was incomplete. She said she had not been in-serviced on that before. She said the resident left
unexpectedly before she could complete it. She said the social worker was responsible for ensuring the
Discharge Plan of Care was complete. She said there was no risk to residents if policy or procedure was
not followed. She said staff provided patient teaching, the medication list, and the residents knew who their
doctors were. She said there really was no risk.
Interview on 09/12/2024 2:16 PM with Medical Records revealed the resident's family member talked about
the resident going to another facility, but did not know when he would be going. When the resident left the
family just took him without letting them complete the form.
Interview on 09/12/2024 at 2:56 PM with the DON said the family was unsure the resident could transfer to
the another facility and the facility was caught off guard when the family came to take him to the other
facility.
Interview on 09/12/2024 at 3:07 with the Administrator revealed he said, with discharge planning, the social
worker was in charge of that. He said the Discharge Summary was supposed to have where they were
going, what medications they were on, what equipment they needed, did they need home health, what
supplies they would need, and whether to continue the care. He said the facility ensured where they were
going was appropriate , and they called and followed up a week later to check on them. He said he had
worked at the facility for 23 years and his role at the facility was Executive Director and Administrator.
He said he was not familiar with Resident #18. He said, routinely, he ensured the facility stayed

in compliance, attended standup meetings, tracked who was being discharged , talked with residents and
visited with them, asked how things were going, assisted with ensuring staffing was in place, stood in on all
the committees, ensured staff were there and doing their jobs, talked with staff about residents, reviewed
incident/accidents, met with all directors, and communicated with families. He said the discharge plan
should start as soon as possible. He said the facility needed to determine if a resident was short-term or
long-term, ensured their needs were being meet, coordinated with family to get with all outside agencies,
ensured the orders were sent, and got the NOMNCs signed. He said he did not know what happened with
Resident #18. He said the former social worker was sick and not doing well. He said she had to resign. He
said generally the social worker communicated with the team, but as Administrator he knew who was going
and coming. The primary staff responsible for ensuring policy/protocol was followed, would be the social
worker. He said the risk to residents if policy or protocol was not followed depended on the resident and
what needs they had; their needs might not be met. He said the worst thing that can happen to the resident
when proper protocols were not practiced was it could result in a lack of needed services.
