I was just at a conference and they suggested to use a colored piece of paper (such as Yellow) and type on it that Resident is at risk for:  Falls, Elopement, Pressure ulcers, etc.  This allows for a quick alert.  It is to be attached in front of the transfer form.

How does your facility communicate to the hospital that your residents are at risk for pressure ulcers or that they are being treated for pressure ulcers? Do you have it on your transfer form? If anyone has a way that has been working please let me know.
