D/C'd from therapies 12/10.  Had a fall and was admitted to acute care hospital 1/8 (day 28 following d/c of therapies)with a subdural.  Returned to SNF 1/17 with PT/OT orders.  CAn I pick him up and cover him for skilled care, continuing his original stay or would this require the 60 day break?   Thanks for your help.  You are a wonderful group of helpers and supporters Not sure if I'm right but I think you can finish what's left of resident's 100 days since there was less that 30 days off medA.
