Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure one of one sampled resident
(Resident 12) received treatment and care in accordance with the facility's policies and procedures (P&P)
by failing to ensure Resident 12's skin tear and edema (swelling caused by too much fluid trapped in the
body's tissues) were monitored and cared for adequately.
Residents Affected - Few
This deficient practice resulted in no improvement to Resident 12's skin tear and edema and caused
Resident 12 to feel worried, in addition, the failure had the potential to result in a physical decline to
Resident 12.
Findings:
During a review of Resident 12's admission Record (AR), the AR indicated, Resident 12 was originally
admitted to the facility on [DATE] and readmitted on [DATE] with multiple diagnoses including unspecified
atrial fibrillation (an irregular, often very rapid heart rate that commonly causes poor blood flow), essential
primary hypertension (high blood pressure) and other specified disorders of bone density and structure,
unspecified site.
During a review of Resident 12's Care Plan (CP) titled, Risk for developing pressure ulcers, bruising, and
other types of impaired skin integrity, date initiated 2/23/2024, the CP indicated, one of the interventions
was to assess skin integrity during care.
During a review of Resident 12's CP, titled, At risk for skin breakdown, weight loss, formation of
contractures (shortening and hardening of muscles, tendons, or other tissue, often leading to deformity and
tightness of the joints), joint limitation, increase pain, intractable pain, isolation, and reduced social
interaction, date initiated 2/27/2024, the CP indicated, one of the interventions was to assess skin
condition.
During a review of Resident 12's CP, titled, Skin tear proximal left ankle clarification of location from left
ankle date initiated 5/2/2024, the CP indicated, one of the interventions was to Geri (skin) sleeves to be
applied to legs daily and removed at bedtime every day and evening shift for Skin Maintenance.
During a review of Resident 12's History and Physical Examination (H&P), dated 3/1/2024, the H&P
indicated, Resident 12's skin had erythema (redness of the skin caused by injury or another
inflammation-causing condition) with mottling (blotchy, red-purplish marbling of the skin). The H&P
indicated, Resident 12 had generalized weakness and was alert and oriented.
During a review of Resident 12's Minimum Data Set (MDS, an assessment and screening tool), dated
3/1/2024, the MDS indicated, Resident 12's cognition (ability to understand and process information) was
intact. The MDS indicated, Resident 12 was at risk for developing pressure ulcers/injuries (injury to skin and
underlying tissue resulting from prolonged pressure on the skin) and Resident 12 had no
ulcers/wounds/skin problems on Resident 12's feet.
During a review of Resident 12's Change in Condition (COC), dated 5/2/2024, timed at 4:05 PM., the COC
indicated, noted skin tear to [Resident 12's] left ankle and edema +2 (a grading system to determine the

extremities).
During a review of Resident 12's Interdisciplinary Team (IDT, a team of health care professions who work
together to establish plans of care for residents), dated 5/3/2024, timed at 12:58 PM., the IDT indicated,
Resident 12 had pitting edema (when an indentation remains after pressing swollen skin) and had fragile
skin and recommended [putting on] geri sleeves (to protect the skin) on the BLE and continue the plan of
care for skin breakdown. The IDT indicated, Resident 12 was at risk for further skin breakdown due to
anticoagulant (blood thinner) therapy, poor fluid/dietary intake, aging process, fragile skin, impaired
balance, impaired mobility, poor safety awareness, impaired vision, and ambulating without assistance.
During a concurrent observation and interview on 5/13/2024 at 1:46 PM., with Resident 12 in Resident 12's
room, Resident 12 was ambulating (walking) slowly independently. Resident 12's legs were open to air,
appearing light purple in color, had edema (more edema on the left side) on both legs, and had minimal
weeping. Resident 12 had a bandage on the left inner ankle and stated, the facility was not doing anything
about Resident 12's legs and Resident 12 was disappointed, concerned, and felt the staff had neglected
the edema on her legs. Resident 12 asked, What are they doing? Why is it not healing? Resident 12 stated,
the swelling was small when Resident 12 was admitted to the facility but got worse and was not better.
Resident 12 stated, it's been a month and thought Resident 12 should see a dermatologist (a medical
doctor who specializes in treating the skin, hair, and nails). Resident 12 stated, the staff told Resident 12 to
only elevate her legs, but really nothing.
During an interview on 5/13/2024 at 2:05 PM., with the Personal Caregiver (PCG), the PCG stated, the
PCG reported Resident 12's edema 2 weeks ago after the PCG noticed the left foot was bigger than the
right foot.
During a concurrent observation and interview on 5/14/2024 at 3:10 PM., with Resident 12, Resident 12
was up in Resident 12's room using a rollator walker (a walker with a built-in seat). Resident 12's legs were
swollen, open to air, with the left side worse than the right side. Resident 12 stated, nobody had checked on
Resident 12's swollen legs and the evening [shift] staff would look at it they always pass it on.
During a concurrent interview and record review on 5/15/2024 at 9:58 AM., with the Quality Assurance
Nurse (QAN), Resident 12's Physician Orders (PO), were reviewed. The PO indicated, Geri (skin) sleeves
[were] to be applied to the legs daily and removed at bedtime every day and during the evening shift for
Skin Maintenance ordered on 5/3/2024. The QAN stated, Resident 12 did not have a geri sleeve on and
this was important to protect Resident 12's skin.
During an observation on 5/15/2024 at 10:26 AM., with the QAN, Resident 12's legs were observed.
Resident 12 had no geri sleeves on. Resident 12's legs were swollen, the left leg had a dry kerlix (dressing
used to cover wounds) dressing wrapped around the left ankle, and the dressing was constricting the area.
The QAN removed the kerlix dressing and Resident 12's left leg had a dark purplish, blackish discolored
section with a skin tear/wound and scanty weeping.
During an interview on 5/15/2024 at 10:30 AM., with Resident 12, Resident 12 stated, the staff had not told
Resident 12 about [Resident 12 wearing] geri sleeves and Resident 12 had not heard about a geri sleeve.

1 was aware of Resident 12's edema and skin tear on Resident 12's left ankle. RN 1 stated, the order for a
geri sleeve was not carried out. RN 1 stated, it was important to carry out the PO because the geri sleeve
was an extra layer [added] to protect Resident 12's skin.
During a concurrent interview and record review on 5/15/2024 at 11:51 AM., with the Assistant Director of
Nursing (ADON), Resident 12's medical records (MR), were reviewed. The ADON stated, there was no skin
assessment done on Resident 12 and a skin assessment should have been done for a skin tear that was
either not responding well to the treatment or worsening. The ADON stated, Resident 12's skin tear should
have been assessed due to not responding to the treatment, change in edema, and [the staff] should have
reached out to the doctor [to obtain] further recommendations. The ADON stated, the geri sleeve could
have minimized further skin [breakdown] and for protection.
During a review of the facility's undated P&P titled, Skin-Open Wound, Skin Tears, Bruises, Abrasions,
Edema and Minor Breaks, Care Of, the P&P indicated, the purpose of the P&P procedure was to guide the
prevention and treatment of abrasions, skin tears, bruises, edema, swelling and minor breaks in the skin.
The P&P indicated, to review the resident's care plan, current orders, and diagnoses to determine resident
needs.
During a review of the facility's P&P titled, Quality of Care - Quality of Life, dated 2015, the P&P indicated,
OBRA (Omnibus Reconciliation Act of 1987) emphasized the need for all health care providers to follow
and uphold the Residents Rights which stresses Quality of Care for residents. The standard stresses the
need to care for all residents in a manner and in such an environment as will promote maintenance or
enhancement of the Quality of Life for each resident. The P&P indicated, performing safe and effective care
included recognizing changes in residents' condition and reporting them promptly and performing care
correctly as assigned.

Procure food from sources approved or considered satisfactory and store, prepare, distribute and serve
food in accordance with professional standards.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to follow safe and proper food storage practices
in accordance with professional standards for food service safety and the facility's policy and procedure
(P&P) by failing to label/date food items in one of one kitchen (Kitchen 1).
This deficient practice could result in a risk for serious complications from food borne illness (illness caused
by the ingestion of contaminated food or beverage) and/or affect the quality and palatability of food given to
the residents.
Findings:
During a concurrent observation and interview on 5/13/2024, at 8:02 AM., with the Purchasing Clerk (PC)
during the initial tour of Kitchen 1, the following were observed on the top open shelf of the preparation
counter area:
1.
An unlabeled 20 oz (ounces, unit of weight) Lawry's Salt-Free 17 Seasoning with less than one fourth
contents remaining with a label date Received date 2/27/2024
2.
An unlabeled 16 oz Sysco Imperial Ground Nutmeg with three quarters contents remaining.
3.
An unlabeled 26 oz Sysco Imperial Granulated Garlic
with two thirds content remaining.
In addition, there was an unlabeled orange and an apple wrapped in [NAME] wrap on top of the counter,
stored in a steel wire fruit basket. Inside Refrigerator 10, there was a plastic bag of frozen potato wedges
and a plastic bag of frozen onion rings that were unlabeled. Inside Refrigerator 3, there were 2 boxes of
fresh apples, 3 boxes of fresh oranges, 1 box of fresh lemons, 1 bin of fresh white onions, 1 bin of fresh red
onions, and 2 unlabeled 1-gallon Sysco Ultra Premium Lime Juice one with one fourth contents remaining,
the other with one third contents remaining.
The PC stated, the food items should have been labeled with opened dates to ensure the facility was not
using any expired foods. The PC stated, it was important to know the expiration dates and not to serve
expired foods because it [expired food] can cause someone to get sick, could cause food borne illness, and
could affect the taste of the food.
During an interview on 5/13/2024 at 8:22 AM., with the Cold Food Prep (CFP), the CFP stated, the food
items were labeled with the arrival date for the facility to know when the food item expired if it's good or bad
and to prevent serving expired food items to prevent residents from getting sick, I wouldn't want them to get
sick.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to implement infection control practices to
ensure a safe, sanitary, and comfortable environment in accordance with the facility's policy and procedure
(P&P) by failing to properly store dirty laundry for one of five sampled residents (Resident 33).
Residents Affected - Few
This deficient practice had the potential to result in cross contamination (process by which bacteria can be
transferred from one area to another) and/or the development and transmission of disease and infection
amongst residents and staff.
Findings:
During a review of Resident 33's admission Record (AR), the AR indicated, Resident 33 was admitted to
the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including cerebral infarction (also known as a stroke, damage to
tissues in the brain due to a loss of oxygen to the area), unspecified, essential primary hypertension (high
blood pressure) and unspecified atrial fibrillation ( an irregular, often very rapid heart rate that commonly
causes poor blood flow).
During a review of Resident 41's History and Physical Examination (H&P), dated 5/12/2024, the H&P
indicated, Resident 33 was alert but confused, could make immediate needs known, but was unable to
make complex medical decisions.
During a review of Resident 33's Minimum Data Set (MDS, an assessment and screening tool), dated
4/4/2024, the MDS indicated, Resident 33's cognitive (ability to think and process information) skills for
daily decision making was moderately impaired. The MDS indicated, Resident 33 was dependent (helper
does all of the effort) for toileting hygiene.
During an observation on 5/13/2024 at 8:58 AM., Resident 33 was awake and alert, sitting on a wheelchair
in the hallway by the nursing station. A closed bag of dirty laundry including bed linen was observed on top
of the toilet seat in Resident 33's restroom.
During a concurrent observation and interview on 5/13/2024 at 9:05 AM., with Certified Nursing Assistant
(CNA) 1, a closed bag of dirty laundry including bed linen was on top of the toilet seat of Resident 33's
restroom. CNA 1 stated, it was hospice (a type of health care that focuses on the care, comfort, and
quality of life of a person with a serious illness who is approaching the end of life) staff who came in early in
the morning to help with Resident's 33 care. CNA 1 stated, the hospice staff had already been at the facility
when CNA 1 arrived to the facility at 6:40 am_ CNA 1 stated, the hospice staff was supposed to put the bag
of dirty laundry in the dirty linen barrel.
During an interview on 5/16/2024 at 11:12 AM., with the Infection Preventionist Nurse (IP), the IP stated,
hospice staff came to the facility and helped with [resident] care. The IP stated the hospice staff was
supposed to put the bag of dirty laundry in the dirty linen barrel and not leave it [bag of dirty laundry] on the
toilet seat because it's contamination and for infection control [purposes].
