Admission Agreement date on 03/9/2024. Review of Physician report revealed that R1 has history of skin condition or breakdown near buttock area and review of Appraisal Needs and Services Plan revealed that page #4 was completed partially, and page #5 was completed only; therefore, no proper assessment was conducted and R1 ended up having stage 3 pressure ulcer as of 04/28/2025.
