Significant Change- Hospice

Published

Hello, When should a Sig Change MDS be opened for a Resident who was discharged from Hospice services? Resident was d/c from hospice effected 7/20, so I opened the sig change for 8/2 (14 days after Hospice--- because section O "Hospice Care within the past 14 days while a resident" Is this correct? DON is saying to open 3 to 7 days after discharge from Hospice. I get confused with opening a Sig Change MDS.

I schedule 14 days after discharge from hospice.
