Inspector’s narrative

What the inspector wrote

On 4/8/21 Staff #1(S1) left employment at the facility, leaving Staff #2(S2) as the only caregiver. Both staff indicated they were not strong enough to remove R1 from bed on their own and S2 described R1 as bedridden during S1’s absence. This indicated that R1 was not removed from bed from 4/8/21 until R1 left the facility on 5/30/21. S1 also stated that there was usually only one staff member at the facility prior to S1 leaving on 4/8/21. R1 was removed from the facility on 5/30/21 by family. Family were present during R1’s diaper change. Family observed an open wound on R1’s lower back/buttock area with a foul odor. S2 stated that she had noted a red rash. R1 did not receive any examination for the pressure injury while in care at the facility. The wound was diagnosed as infected and a Stage III pressure injury by R1’s Primary Care Physician and the Department’s Clinical Consultant’s. Based upon the Department’s investigation, it is clear that R1 had not been removed/transferred from bed for the time period 4/8/21 through 5/30/21 and possibly longer. As a result, R1 developed a Stage III pressure injury on R1’s coccyx that became infected as evidenced by the foul odor and medical assessment. This is a prohibited health condition that the facility was not approved to care for. In addition, R1’s family was never notified of R1’s wound nor the fact that R1 was completely bedridden, and there was no change of condition documented. The preponderance of evidence standard has been met and the above allegations are substantiated. See attached LIC9099D for cited deficiencies per California Code of Regulations, (Title 22, Division 6, Chapter 8). An exit interview was conducted and a copy of this report and appeal rights were provided to Licensee Tin Le.
