Do you have someone who goes out to see the person in the hospital before you admit them to your facility, can they maybe make a copy of it then? Or can you call the Medical Record's department of the hospital to ask them to send you a copy. Or, you can make it part of your required admission information before you take them.
We are hospital based, so I can always just request their medical chart, but usually, we get a copy of their MAR upon admission, and/or, it is documented on our referral sheet that we fill out when we go out to eval the patient for admission.
