If a resident files a written appeal within the stipulated time, can they be discharged before the review is completed?

Yes, but only after a meeting with the resident
No, they cannot be transferred or discharged until the review is completed
Yes, immediately after the appeal is filed
No, they must wait at least 3 days after filing the appeal

The correct answer is: Yes, but only after a meeting with the resident

Yes, the correct answer is A. According to Wisconsin regulations, a resident who files a written appeal within the stipulated time can be discharged before the review is completed, but only after a meeting with the resident. This meeting is crucial for discussing the appeal, understanding the resident's concerns, and potentially resolving any issues before the discharge takes place. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the process required by Wisconsin regulations. Residents can be discharged after a meeting with them, but it is not required to wait for the appeal review process to be completed.
