Complaint·July 23, 2024

Review of HH notes stated that R1 had a very slow healing wound due to her being diabetic which progressed from a stage 2 to a stage 3 shallow wound pressure injury. Staff assisted R1 in keeping the wound dry and pressure off the wound area. Staff continued to communicate with R1’s PCP on R1’s wound’s status and followed doctor’s orders for new medications. On 05/08/24, R1 was transferred to a skilled nursing facility (SNF) for continued wound care and still remains at the SNF currently. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did occur. Therefore, the allegation that facility retained resident with restricted health condition is unsubstantiated. No deficiencies cited. Exit Interview conducted and a copy of this report provided.
