Clients
A patient will be accepted for care based on consideration. Consideration will be given to the
adequacy and suitability of organization personnel, resources to provide the required services,
and the reasonable expectation that the patient’s medical, nursing, rehabilitative, and social
needs can be adequately met in the patient’s place of residence.
A patient will be referred to other resources if the organization cannot meet his/her needs.
Once a patient is admitted to service, the organization is responsible for providing care and
services within its financial and service capabilities, mission, and applicable law and regulations.
