D/C'd from therapy 3/24 when he "maxed out" d/t wt. bearing status.
Stayed covered for wound vac, IV meds, etc. Therapy wants to pick him
back up today as his strength has improved and he can now tolerate some
standing. Tomorrow (5/7) is day 89 and I had previously set this as
ARD. My understanding is that I cannot use grace days here (only on 5
or 14, correct?). How do I capture his rehab RUG now?? May 18th will
be his 100th day. He has not really had a significant change r/t
dementia.....not able to perform ADLs. Advice would be appreciated!!
You have 5 grace days for the 30, 60 & 90 day assessments also.
However, he would probably qualify for a OMRA so you might want to
combine the 90 day with an OMRA.
