Therapy and SW work
closely together and the resident/responsible parties are instructed
immediately upon any refusal of the repercussions if they refuse x 3 and this
is documented in progress notes. >From there we follow the
guidelines.

Subject: RE:
cut therapy
I have a question for this senerio.
Our therapists will try for 3 times, then if resident refused therapy 3 times,
they will d/c therapy. If therapy is the only skill, what do you do when
you need to give the family the 48 hours notice of medicare being
stopped? They won't get therapy for those 48 hours. What should be
done here? Since now we need to give 48 hours notice and not
24???

therapy
hello to all,
i have had a few burning questions. the more i read the worse it gets
LOL here's another ----- OK if a resident skilled part A
for rehab refuses to participate (able to physically) just refuses
either unmotivated or unwilling. i was told to continue to offer for 3 days
before i cut skilled service. on 3rd day if refused again that would be my
last covered day. do you
agree?
thanks
