34 BURLINGTON HEALTH & REHAB 475014 300 PEARL STREET BURLINGTON VT 5401 2019-05-01 625 D 1 0 IOQ211 **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** > Based on record review and staff interview, the facility failed to provide a written notice of the duration of the bed hold for 1 of 4 residents sampled (Resident #1) prior to therapeutic leave, or discharge. Findings include: Per the Admission Director, 4/24/19 2:20 PM, no bed hold notice was issued to Resident #1 or the representative prior to or reasonably thereafter on 4/24/19. Per the Administrator and Director of Nursing during interview on 4/30/19 at 9:00 AM, Resident #1 was considered discharged against medical advice when transported from the facility to a hotel on 4/24/19. Based on the behavior of Resident #1, returning to the facility twice on the afternoon of 4/24/19 and verbalizing that s/he made a mistake, this could also be viewed as a therapeutic leave on the part of the resident, and an unsafe decision related to potential cognitive changes caused by brewing bacterial urinary tract infection [MEDICAL CONDITIONS].
