A resident may not be moved from one facility to another without consultation with and agreement from the resident or, if applicable, the resident's representative or designee or the resident's family, guardian, surrogate, or attorney in fact. In the case of a resident who has been placed by the department or the Department of Children and Families, the administrator must notify the appropriate contact person in the applicable department. (9) A terminally ill resident who no longer meets the criteria for continued residency may remain in the facility if the arrangement is mutually agreeable to the resident and the facility; additional care is rendered through a licensed hospice, and the resident is under the care of a physician who agrees that the physical needs of the resident are being met. 58A-5.0181 (4) CONTINUED RESIDENCY.

The resident contracts directly with a licensed home health agency or a nurse to provide care, or the facility has a limited nursing services license and services are provided pursuant to a plan of care issued by a health care provider, 2. The condition is documented in the resident's record; and, 3. If the resident's condition fails to improve within 30 days, as documented by a health care provider, the resident must be discharged from the facility. (c) A terminally ill resident who no longer meets the criteria for continued residency may continue to reside in the facility if the following conditions are met: 1. The resident qualifies for, is admitted to, and consents to receive services from a licensed hospice that coordinates and ensures the provision of any additional care and services that the resident may need; 2. Both the resident, or the resident's legal representative if applicable, and the facility agree to continued residency; 3.
