(Revised 1/1/08 ML 3118)
Providers must follow these standards for termination of care:
The provider shall terminate care of a resident when such care is no longer required or no longer meets the needs and the best interests of the person receiving Family Foster Home Care for Adults.
The provider shall terminate care of a resident when the provider is no longer qualified to provide the personal care needed by the resident receiving care.
The provider who anticipates the termination of care to a resident shall provide the resident, and the resident's representative, if any, with at least 30 days written notice of the termination. The provider shall notify the County Social Service Agency of the plan to terminate care to a resident. The provider shall refer or transfer the resident to a setting more appropriate to the resident's needs. The provider can seek the assistance of the County Social Service Agency or the Human Service Center for termination planning for a resident.
