The Rhode Island Nursing Facility Transition (NFT) Agency Policy Manual provides a comprehensive operational framework for agencies supporting individuals transitioning from nursing facilities to home and community-based living in Rhode Island. This manual aligns with the regulations established by the Rhode Island Executive Office of Health and Human Services (EOHHS), the Office of Healthy Aging (OHA), and the Department of Behavioral Healthcare, Developmental Disabilities and Hospitals (BHDDH). It also ensures compliance with Medicaid-funded programs including the Money Follows the Person (MFP) initiative and Long-Term Services and Supports (LTSS). The manual includes policies and procedures governing agency certification and compliance, participant eligibility and referral processes, comprehensive transition assessments, person-centered discharge and housing planning, coordination with community-based services and supports, staff qualifications and training, participant rights and protections, emergency preparedness, incident reporting, service documentation and billing, and quality assurance. It emphasizes individual choice, autonomy, and long-term success in less restrictive, community-based settings. This manual serves as a foundational resource for NFT agencies in Rhode Island, ensuring the delivery of high-quality, compliant services that support individuals in achieving successful, sustainable transitions from institutional care to independent or supported living arrangements
