003.05(B)(iii)(5) ABILITY TO RETURN HOME.
When it is not possible to determine immediately whether an applicant or client who moves to a nursing home or assisted living facility and is receiving Aged and Disabled Waiver services will be able to return to the home, a maximum of six months must be allowed to make this determination. Unless the applicant, client, or his or her authorized representative signs a statement which the applicant or client will not return to the home, or the home is already listed for sale, it is not possible to determine immediately if he or she will return home.
