attempted to call SW however she did not answer. Left message requesting a call back. Administrator went
on [portal] and ordered hospital bed for residents. Administrator telephoned [Owner] and informed her of
ordering a hospital bed. Administrator stated she would continue to update as she received
information.01/26/26- Administrator met with SW re: discharge of resident. SW admitted to not ordering
DME stating she was told that residents did not need any. She also stated that she did not fax referral for
home health. Administrator ordered SW to make HH referral immediately and it was completed. During
verbal counseling, SW decided to issue resignation. Administrator later received notification that [DME
company] would not be able to fulfill DME order. Administrator made referral for [DME company] DME. That
afternoon resident's [Family Member] came to facility and resident requested via phone a copy of medical
records for PCH to be given to her. Once she received medical records, she left the facility. In an interview
on 02/04/26 at 10:11 AM, the Administrator said CR #1 required maximum assistance for transfers, she had
good upper body strength but had a paraplegic lower body. She said after CR #1 discharged , she received
a call from the personal care home, who stated the necessary equipment (hospital bed) had not arrived.
The administrator said she submitted the order for the hospital bed to the DME company and sent the
required clinicals to the personal care home but there were issues with CR #1's insurance which resulted in
delay until 01/29/26. She said the Social Worker was responsible for CR #1's discharge on [DATE] but she
was no longer employed at the facility. In an interview on 02/04/26 at 10:47 AM, CR #1's family member
said, the facility failed to communicate CR #1's lower extremity functional limitations to the admitting facility
or order a hospital bed when she discharged to the personal care home on [DATE]. She said the facility CR
#1 was transferred to only had a twin bed and did not know the resident could not transfer herself. An
attempt was made on 02/04/26 at 11:44 AM to contact the Social Worker by telephone. The number
provided by the facility was not in service. In an interview on 02/04/26 at 12:03 PM, The Owner of personal
care home said, prior to CR #1's arrival in the facility the former Social Worker failed to send any clinical
records on CR #1 and failed to verbally communicate that the resident required maximum assistance or a
hospital bed. The Owner of the personal care home said when CR #1 arrived at the facility the home did not
have the hospital bed CR #1 required due to her inability to use her legs. She said her facility could not
meet CR #1's needs and could not meet the needs of immobile residents that required maximum
assistance because they did not have sufficient staff to transfer the resident. In an interview on 02/04/26 at
12:44 PM, the Transportation Staff said, on 01/23/26 she transported CR #1 to Personal Care Home B. She
said when she arrived at the care home, CR #1's room did not have a hospital bed, there was a regular twin
bed Kids twin bed low to the ground in the room. The Transportation Staff said the personal care home did
not have sufficient staff to transfer CR #1 when she arrived so she had to help transfer the resident to her
new bed. In an interview on 02/04/26 at 01:06 PM, the PTA said CR #1 required maximum assistance for
bed mobility, and sitting up or turning in bed so she would need an adjustable bed to sit up independently.
In an interview on 02/04/26 at 01:50 PM, the Administrator said there was no documentation to support the
facility sent CR #1's clinical records to the personal care home, or DME orders were submitted prior to CR
#1's discharge on [DATE]. She said facility staff are expected to initiate discharge planning at admission
and all services should be initiated prior to discharge. The Administrator said the personal care home was
not notified of required DME prior to CR #1's arrival. She said the Social Worker was responsible for making
sure the discharge facility was appropriate, supplies were available and clinicals were sent but failed to do
so. The Administrator said resident's discharge summary should include the name and address of the
discharge facility and the information was missing from CR #1's discharge summary. She said

based on her review CR #1's discharge summary was incomplete as it did not include where she was
going, services or equipment needed or appointments needed post discharge. The Administrator said the
Social Worker separated her employment due to this incident but the investigation revealed, clinical
information was never sent to the personal care home. The Administrator said failure to develop a complete
and accurate discharge plan/summary could place residents at risk of missed care and an inappropriate
discharge that is neither successful nor safe. Record review of the facility policy titled Admission, Discharge
and Transfer- Code of Ethics revised 10/23/19 revealed, 15- All aspects of transfer and discharge are
documented in the medical record, including A- patient/resident and/or family notification. B- Attending
physician's written or faxed orders. 18- Sufficient preparation and orientation to the patient/resident are
provided for a safe and orderly transfer or discharge. The policy did not provide further details on
coordinating safe and orderly transfers for Residents.
