Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to identify a skin rash (an area of irritated or swollen
skin that can be red, itchy, painful, or bumpy) for one of one sampled resident (Resident 1) when Licensed
Vocational Nurse (LVN) 1 discharged Resident 1 without doing a skin check (a visual examination of the
skin surface) on 5/29/2025.This failure resulted in delayed treatment for Resident 1's skin rash and had the
potential to result in physical decline to Resident 1.Findings:During a review of Resident 1's admission
Record (AR), the AR indicated the facility originally admitted Resident 1 on 11/21/2023 and readmitted the
resident 1/12/2024 with diagnoses including type 2 diabetes mellitus (a chronic [persistent or long-lasting]
disease characterized by high blood sugar levels due to insufficient insulin [a hormone which regulates the
amount of sugar in the blood] production) and major depressive disorder (mental health condition where a
person experiences a persistent low mood, loss of interest in activities and other symptoms that
significantly impact daily life). During a review of Resident 1's Minimum Data Set (MDS- a resident
assessment tool), dated 5/29/2025, the MDS indicated Resident1's cognitive (the ability to think and
process information) skills for daily decision making were moderately impaired. The MDS indicated
Resident 1 required setup or clean-up assistance (helper sets up or cleans up; resident completes activity)
with eating, supervision or touching assistance (helper provides verbal cues and/or touching/steadying
and/or contact guard assistance as resident completes activity) with oral hygiene, toileting hygiene,
shower/bathing, upper/lower body dressing, putting on/taking off footwear, and personal hygiene.During a
review of Resident 1's Post Discharge Plan of Care, dated 5/29/2025, the care plan indicated Resident 1
was discharged home 5/29/2025. The Plan of Care indicated the skin condition assessment was left blank
(a space left to be filled in on a document). During a review of Resident 1's Care Plan (CP) titled Pressure
sore. (Resident 1) is at risk to develop pressure sores related to aging process.fragile skin., initiated
11/21/2023, revised 6/12/2025, the CP's goal indicated Resident 1's risk to having skin breakdown would
be reduced with appropriate interventions. The CP's interventions indicated that staff would assess
[Resident 1's] skin condition daily during care and [conduct] weekly body checks.During an interview on
7/7/2025 at 10:18 am with Family Member (FM) 1, FM 1 stated FM 1 took Resident 1 home from the facility
on 5/29/2025. FM 1 stated FM 1 gave Resident 1 a shower on 5/29/2025 at FM 1's home and observed
Resident 1's entire body was covered with bleeding scabs. FM 1 stated this made FM 1 angry because no
one at the facility told FM 1 Resident 1 had a rash and FM 1 did not know how to treat the rash. During an
interview on 7/8/2025 at 10:53 am with Registered Nurse (RN) 1, RN 1 stated it was part of the facility's
discharge process for licensed nurses to conduct skin checks on residents (in general) prior to discharge.
RN 1 stated skin check [assessments] should be documented on the discharge plan of care. RN 1 stated
residents needed to have skin check [assessments] prior to discharge to determine if the resident needed
treatment and to educate the family members if needed.During an interview on 7/8/2025 at 11:10 am with
LVN 1, LVN 1 stated LVN 1 signed the discharge plan of
