53 WEISER CARE OF CASCADIA 135010 331 EAST PARK STREET WEISER ID 83672 2019-10-04 625 D 0 1 VWS011 **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on record review, policy review and staff interview, it was determined the facility failed to ensure a notice of their bed-hold policy was provided to residents or their representatives upon transfer to the hospital. This was true for 1 of 1 resident (Resident #17) reviewed for transfers. This deficient practice created the potential for harm if residents were not informed of their right to return to their former bed/room at the facility within a specified time and may cause psychosocial distress if not informed they may be charged to reserve their bed/room. Findings include: The facility's Bed-Hold Readmission policy and procedure, dated 11/28/17, documented the facility provided written information to the resident, or the resident's representative, about holding a resident's bed prior to or upon transfer to a hospital, and in cases of emergency transfer within 24 hours of transfer. This policy was not followed. Resident #17 was initially admitted to the facility on [DATE], and readmitted on [DATE], with multiple [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. A progress note documented Resident #17 was transferred to the hospital for evaluation on 9/26/19, when she exhibited increased weakness and had stopped eating and drinking. Resident #17's record did not include documentation a written notice of the facility's bed-hold policy was provided to her. On 10/4/19 at 2:03 PM, Resident #17 said she did not remember if she was given a bed-hold notice. On 10/4/19 at 3:10 PM, The DON said Resident #17's record did not include documentation she was provided written notice of the facility's bed-hold policy. 2020-09-01
