Provide appropriate pressure ulcer care and prevent new ulcers from developing.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review the facility failed to provide care consistent with the professional standards of
practice (the set of guidelines, principles, and expectations that govern the conduct and performance of
nursing professionals) to prevent worsening of the pressure ulcer (PU, a localized area of skin damage
caused by prolonged pressure on the skin) for one of two sampled residents (Residents 1) by failing to:
Residents Affected - Some
1. Assess and document detailed observations in SBAR (situation, background, assessment,
recommendation-a communication tool used by healthcare workers when there is a change of condition
among the residents) of Resident 1's change with skin condition and/ or wound condition on the resident's
sacral area (lower back region specifically triangular- shaped bone called the sacrum) and/ or left buttocks
on 10/17/2024, 10/24/2024, 11/14/2024 and 11/30/2024.
2. Monitor Resident 1's change with wound condition on the resident's left buttock of foul odor noted on
11/25/2024 every shift from 11/25/2024 afternoon shift (3 PM to 11 PM) to 11/26/2024 night shift (11 PM to
7 AM) and the progression in size of the wound on 11/27/2024 every shift from 11/27/2024 night shift to
11/29/2024 night shift.
These deficient practices resulted to Resident 1's worsening of the PU. Resident 1 developed fever on
12/1/2024 with a temperature of 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit (F - unit of measurement. Normal adult
temperature is 97 F to 99 F) and was admitted to General Acute Care Hospital (GACH) with diagnoses of
infected sacral decubitus ulcer (another term for PU), fever, and leukocytosis (a condition where there are
more white blood cells [WBC, cells that help your body fight infection/ diseases and other foreign
substances. It elevates when there is an infection] than normal in the body) from 12/1/2024 to 12/10/2024.
Resident 1 also received broad-spectrum antibiotic (a type of antibiotic that can treat a wide range of
bacteria) treatment and underwent excisional debridement (a surgical procedure that involves cutting away
or removing damaged tissues from the skin or subcutaneous tissue [under the skin]) of sacral PU on
12/4/2024.
Findings:
During a review of Resident 1's admission Record, the admission Record indicated Resident 1 was
admitted to the facility on [DATE] and re admitted on [DATE], with diagnoses that included chronic
obstructive pulmonary disease (a condition caused by damage to the airways or other parts of the lung,
that leads to inflammation and other problems that block airflow and make it hard to breathe), and type 2
diabetes mellitus without complications (a chronic condition that occurs when the body doesn't use insulin
properly, resulting in high blood sugar).

Residents Affected - Some
During a review of Resident 1's History and Physical (H&P), dated 9/1/2024, the H&P indicated Resident 1
has capacity to understand and make decisions.
During a review of Resident 1's MDS dated [DATE], indicated Resident 1 was assessed to require
substantial and maximum assistance, (helper does more than half the effort) with roll on the left and right,
sit to lying, and personal hygiene. The MDS also indicated Resident 1 was assessed to be dependent
(helper does all of the effort to complete the activity) on sit to stand, chair/bed-to-chair transfer and toilet
hygiene. The MDS indicated Resident 1 was assessed to be at risk of developing pressure ulcer and the
resident has one or more unhealed pressure ulcers/injuries (location not specified).
During a review of the GACH records with an admission date of 12/1/2024 and discharge date of
12/10/2024, the GACH records indicated Resident 1 was admitted with consultation to General Surgery
(medical specialty that involves diagnosing and treating a wide range of diseases and conditions that
require surgical intervention) and Infectious Disease (medical specialty that involves in preventing,
diagnosing, and treating communicable diseases and/ or infectious disease). The GACH records also
indicated Resident 1 received broad-spectrum antibiotic treatment. The GACH record further indicated,
Resident 1 underwent excisional debridement on 12/4/2024 and discharged from GACH on 12/10/2024.
The GACH records indicated discharge diagnoses which included the following:
a) Infected sacral PU stage 4 (full thickness tissue loss with exposed bone, tendon, or muscle, dead tissue
may be present on some parts of the wound bed, often includes undermining and tunneling)
b) Fever
c) Leukocytosis
During a review of Resident 1's SBAR dated 11/25/2024 entered at 2:04 PM, Resident 1 noted with foul
odor from wound during wound care (location not specified). The SBAR also indicated, Resident 1 appears
slightly confused which is not usual for the resident.
During a review of Resident 1's care plan for Active Infection Wound on Coccyx (the small, triangular bone
at the end of the spine) initiated on 11/25/2024, indicated Resident 1 has pressure ulcer(s): Stage 2 (it
means the skin is broken, but the damage has not reached the underlying tissues like fat, muscle, or bone),
on 11/25/2024-Left buttock Unstageable (the wound's depth and extent of tissue damage cannot be
determined because the wound bed is obscured by dead tissue) -New treatment order/Antibiotic Therapy.
The care plan also indicated the goal is to ensure pressure ulcer will exhibit signs of healing and be free
from signed and symptoms (S/S) of infection (redness, inflammation, warmth, odor free, drainage) for 90
days. The care plan also indicated intervention is to monitor for sign and symptoms of infection (i.e. fever).
During a review of Resident 1's SBAR dated 11/27/2024 entered at 3:48 PM, the SBAR indicated
progression (increased) in size of the PU and provided treatment on the left buttock unstageable PU.
During an interview on 12/17/2024 at 10:35 AM with Resident 1's family (Family 1), Resident 1's son stated
the Certified Nursing Assistant (CNAs) did not change Resident 1's diaper on time, and the urine in the wet
diaper made the resident's wound worst and got infected. Family 1 stated his mom's diapers were wet for
most of time every time 342ewFamily 1 visits Resident 1. Resident 1's son stated he understanded that
Resident 1 refused diaper change at times, but why CNAs not tried to talk to

Residents Affected - Some
During a concurrent interview and record review with Wound Treatment Nurse (WTN) on 12/16/2024 at 1:45
PM, Resident 1's Weekly Wound Communication log (WCL) dated 10/17/2024 to 11/30/2024 were
reviewed, indicated the following:
a.
On 10/17/2024, Resident 1's sacrococcyx [refers to the joint between the sacrum (the triangular bone at the
base of the spine) and the coccyx] has developed moisture-associated skin damage [MASD- is a range of
skin conditions that occur when the skin is repeatedly exposed to moisture].
b.
On 10/24/2024, indicated Resident's 1 left buttock has worsen from MASD to pressure ulcer stage 2.
c.
On11/14/2024, indicated Resident's 1 left buttock has pressure ulcer stage 2 progressed to unstageable.
d.
On 11/30/2024 indicated Resident's 1 left buttock has pressure ulcer stage progressed from unstageable to
stage 4.
WTN 1 stated there was no SBAR/ change of condition (COC) documentation has been established for the
above wound status changes noted on 10/17/2024, 10/24/2024, 11/14/2024 and 11/30/2024. WTN 1 stated
there was no documented evidence in Resident 1's medical record that Interdisciplinary Team (IDT- group
of healthcare professionals from diverse fields who work in a coordinated manner toward a common goal
for the resident) was informed of the worsening of Resident 1's wound on sacrococcyx and/ or left buttocks.
The IDT review and revisions of care plan/ treatment can promote a more comprehensive wound treatment,
and this can prevent Resident 1's wound getting worse, and to prevent infection of the wound.
During an interview on 12/16/2024 at 4:00 PM with the MDSN, MDSN stated she only do quarterly
assessment on Resident 1 including resident's skin assessment and condition. MDSN stated there were no
other assessment and documentation using SBAR done by the licensed nurses regarding Residents 1's
changes with the skin and/ or wound condition on10/17/2024, 10/24/2024, 11/14/2024 and 11/30/2024.
MDSN stated licensed nurses or treatment nurses should have assessed the resident and completed the
SBAR.
During an interview on 12/18/2024 at 7:45 AM with the Registered Nurse Supervisor (RNS), RNS stated
there were no COC/ SBAR done for Resident 1's changes with skin and wound condition on 10/17/2024,

10/24/2024, 11/14/2024 and 11/30/2024. RNS stated not completing the SBAR can affect the resident care,
residents may not get the right care and it can cause skin condition getting worse due to no
communications between the respective divisions (nursing, physician and/ or dietitian). RNS also stated,
since there were no SBAR done for the change in Resident 1's skin condition on 10/17/2024, 10/24/2024,
11/14/2024 and 11/30/2024, no monitoring of the resident's wound was done every shift for 72 hours which
can lead to worsening of the wound.
During an interview on 12/18/2024 at 3:35 PM with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated SBAR
form should have bene completed for Resident 1 when there is a changed in the resident's wound
condition, including PU on the left buttock, it can be bad and good change of condition to make sure proper
treatment and care are provided. The DON stated license nurses were supposed to do the SBAR when
Resident 1's wound progresses/ had changes on 10/17/2024, 10/24/2024, 11/14/2024 and 11/30/2024. The
DON stated COC is connected to the notification, of all the IDT divisions and disciplines, WCD, dietitian and
primary care doctor in that way they can put recommendations to ensure better wound healing. In addition,
it is important to monitor the resident's change in condition/ wound condition every shift after the COC was
noted. The DON stated, there was no documented evidence Resident 1's wound was monitored every shift
if the condition got better or worst on 10/17/2024, 10/24/2024, 11/14/2024 and 11/30/2024. The DON also
stated, there was SBAR done for Reisdent 1's changes with the wound condition on the left buttock on
11/25/2024 and on 11/27/2024, however there was no documented evidence that the licensed nurses
monitored Reisdent 1's wound condition every shift for the foul smell coming from the resident's wound
noted on 11/25/2024 from 11/25/2024 (afternoon shift) to 11/26/2024 (night shift) and for increase in size of
the wound on the left buttock noted on 11/27/2027 from 11/27/2024 (night shift) to 11/29/2024 (night shift).
The DON stated MASD wound to PU2 to unstageable to PU4 were considered significant changes, and
licenses nurses were supposed to completed SBAR form to indicate if the primary physician was called,
and if there were any new orders and/ or treatment.

Safeguard resident-identifiable information and/or maintain medical records on each resident that are in
accordance with accepted professional standards.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure licensed nurses document accurate information of
Resident 1's skin condition and wound care treatment in the resident's Skilled Nursing Assessment form on
9/11/2024 and 10/25/2024 and in the Weekly Summary form on 9/18/2024, 10/11/2024, and 10/18/2024,
This deficient practice had the potential to result in miscommunication, improper delivery of care and
delayed communication of the progression of Resident 1's pressure ulcer.
Findings:
During a review of Resident 1's admission Record, the admission Record indicated the resident was initially
admitted to the facility on [DATE] and was readmitted on [DATE] with diagnoses that included chronic
kidney disease (a condition in which the kidneys are damaged and cannot filter blood as well as they
should) and lack of coordination.
During a review of Resident 1's Minimum Data Set (MDS, a federally mandated assessment tool), dated
11/1/2024, the MDS indicated Resident 1 had moderately impaired cognitive (mental action or process of
acquiring knowledge and understanding) skills for daily decision making. The MDS also indicated Resident
1 was dependent (helper does all the effort) on toileting, shower, lower body dressing, and putting on and
taking off footwear. The MDS further indicated Resident 1 required substantial assistance (helper does
more than half the effort) with upper body dressing and personal hygiene and supervision (helper provides
verbal cues) with oral hygiene. The MDS also indicated Resident 1 was at risk for developing pressure
ulcers (shallow sore that looks like a blister or abrasion with visible damage to the deeper layers of the skin)
with 1 stage 2 pressure ulcer which was not present on admission.
During a review of Resident 1's medical records titled, Admission/readmission Data Collection, dated
9/3/2024, the Admission/readmission Data Collection indicated Resident 1 had redness on the coccyx (tail
bone).
During a review of the Resident 1's Treatment Administration Record (TAR) for the month of 9/2024, the
TAR indicated a wound treatment for sacrococcyx (pertains to both large triangular shaped bone in the
lower spine that forms part of the pelvis and the tailbone) using collagen powder (a wound dressing that
can be used to treat a variety of wounds) and calcium alginate (a light, nonwoven fabrics derived from
algae or seaweed) which started 9/4/2024 to 9/30/2024.
During a review of Resident 1's Skilled Nurses Notes dated 9/11/2024, the Skilled Nurses Notes did not
indicate that the resident had a treatment order for the Moisture Associated Skin Damage (MASD, a
spectrum of injury characterized by the inflammation and a breakdown of the outer layer of the skin
resulting from prolonged exposure to various sources of moisture and potential irritants such as urine and
stools) on the sacrococcyx area.

redness on the coccyx area is the same as MASD. The MDS nurse confirmed Resident 1 had an order for
collagen powder and calcium alginate treatment for the redness on the coccyx from 9/4/2024 until
10/18/2024 then changed to MediHoney and calcium alginate on 10/18/2024 after MASD progressed.
During an interview on 12/18/2024 at 3:38 PM, the DON stated the licensed nurses should be doing and
documenting complete and accurate weekly skin assessment for the residents to catch any possible skin
issues and prevent progression of wound if not identified and/ or monitored.
During an interview on 12/18/2024 at 6:18 PM, the DON stated, the skin assessments documented by the
licensed nurses in the Skilled Nursing Assessment on 9/11/24 and 10/25/2024 and in the Weekly Summary
form on 9/18/2024, 10/11/2024 and 10/18/2024, were not consistent with what skin condition/ wound
Resident 1 had in accordance with the Wound Care Doctor's communication log and TAR.

F 0842
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Residents Affected - Few
During an interview with the Administrator (ADM) on 12/18/2024 at 6:27 PM, the ADM stated the licensed
nurses' documentation on the Weekly Summary form dated 9/18/2024, 10/11/2024 and 10/18/2024, and
Skilled Nurses' Assessment on 9/11/2024 and 10/25/2024 were inaccurate representation of Resident 1's
condition at that time. The ADM also stated the nurses probably did not take time to look and assess
Resident 1's skin and/ or wound on the back that is why it did not reflect the actual Resident 1's skin
condition and wound treatment.
During an interview on 12/18/2024 at 6:40 PM, the Wound Care Doctor stated Sacro-coccyx and left
buttock pressure ulcer was one and the same. The Wound Care Doctor stated he re-classified the
sacrococcyx MASD to left buttock stage 2 pressure ulcer after he re-evaluated Resident 1 on 10/24/2024.
During a review of the facility's policy titled, Pressure Ulcers/Skin Breakdown - Clinical Protocol, on
assessment and recognition revised March 2014, indicated, the nurse shall describe and document/report
full assessment of pressure sore (pressure ulcer) including location, stage, length, width, and depth
(distance from the top or surface to the bottom of something), presence of exudates (fluid that leaks out of
blood vessels into nearby tissues) or necrotic tissue (Exudate may ooze from cuts or from areas of infection
or inflammation). The policy also included that the nurse shall describe and document current treatments.
During a review of the facility's policy titled, Charting and Documentation, revised July 2017, indicated, all
services provided to the resident, progress toward the care plan goals, or any changes in the resident's
medical, physical, functional, or psychosocial condition, shall be documented in the resident's medical
record. The medical record should facilitate communication between the interdisciplinary team regarding
the resident's condition and response to care. The policy also indicated that documentation in the medical
record will be objective (not opinionated or speculative), complete, and accurate.
