Pa. Code 5310.35

Termination from program

This regulation requires Community Residential Rehabilitation Services (CRRS) in Pennsylvania to establish written termination criteria and procedures covering both planned and unplanned terminations. For planned terminations due to a client's failure to meet service agreement terms, the CRRS must provide written notice including the exit date, reason, and grievance recourse, with copies sent to relevant case management or treatment agencies. Within two weeks of the exit date, the CRRS must prepare a termination summary for inclusion in the client's record and distribution to the specified case management or treatment agency.

(a)
 The
 community residential rehabilitation service (CRRS) must establish written
 termination criteria and procedures which must address the following two types
 of termination:
(1)

Planned
 termination of services.
 The client, CRRS staff and, if appropriate,
 others responsible for the client's welfare agree that the client should leave
 the program and have planned and prepared for the move.

(2)

Unplanned termination of
 services.
 The client drops out, requires hospital or nursing care, or
 demonstrates behavior that requires immediate removal.

(b)
 If the planned termination is a result of
 the client not living up to the terms of the service agreement, the CRRS must
 notify the client in writing of the decision, give an exit date, the reason for
 termination and indicate any recourse the client has under the client grievance
 procedures. A copy of the notice must be sent to each case management or
 treatment agency, specified in the individual's service plan.

(c)
 Within 2 weeks after the exit date, the
 CRRS must prepare a termination summary for each client terminated which must
 be included in the client's record and sent to the case management or treatment
 agency specified in the individual's service plan.
