Summary
The facility failed to provide resident-specific discharge paperwork to the hospital during the transfer of a resident with multiple diagnoses, including dementia and a history of falls. Documentation review revealed that after the resident experienced a fall resulting in a nasal fracture, two black eyes, and a facial laceration, there was no evidence that required information, such as hospice documentation, was sent with the resident to the hospital. The Director of Nursing confirmed that the necessary resident information was not provided to the hospital at the time of transfer.
