**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed ensure the resident's representative was informed of an
incident of fall for one of six resident reviewed (Resident C).
This failure has the potential to result in the resident's representative to be unaware of the resident's
condition which could delay the involvement of the representative in planning the care for their family
member (Resident C).

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
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure that one (Resident D) of four residents
reviewed for pressure ulcers/injuries (PU/PI-localized damage to the skin and underlying soft tissue usually
over a bony prominence resulting from intense or prolonged pressure), received care and services
consistent with professional standards of practice, when the status of the pressure injuries, which included
measurements, were not consistently documented. In addition, the facility failed to ensure provision of
wound treatment was coordinated with the wound care team.
Residents Affected - Few
These failures have the potential to result in inconsistent provision of wound treatment which could
contribute to the delayed healing of the resident's pressure injuries.
Findings:
On May 24, 2024, at 10:30 a.m., an unannounced visit to the facility was conducted to investigate a
complaint related to quality of care.
On May 24, 2024, Resident D's medical record was reviewed. Resident D was admitted to the facility on
[DATE], with diagnoses which included malignant neoplasm (cancer) of the thyroid gland (a gland at the
base of the neck) and dementia (a group of thinking and social symptoms that can interfere with daily
function).
A review of Resident D's Medication Review Report indicated, on May 14, 2024, Bactrim DS (double
strength-an antibiotic used to treat an infection) one tablet twice a day for 10 days for a wound infection was
ordered and on May 23, 2024, an order for Mupirocin (medication used to treat skin infections) external
ointment 2% apply to sacrum topically (to the skin) for wound infection was placed.
A review of Resident D's Skin and Wound Evaluation, dated April 29, 2023, indicated a pressure wound,
Stage 2, in-house acquired to coccyx, length 1.0 cm (centimeters-a type of measurement), width 3.0 cm,
and depth 0.2 cm, slough (dead cell accumulation, yellow to white in color) to wound bed, light exudate
(drainage).
A record review of Resident D's Comprehensive Skin Evaluation/Assessment indicated:
-On May 2, 2024, a left thigh rear abrasion and left lower leg skin tear were noted, no documentation
indicating the presence of a PU/PI to the sacrum/coccyx area (the bony structure at the back of the pelvis
and the tail bone).
- On May 7, 2024, three wound sites were noted: a left thigh abrasion, a left lower leg skin tear, and a right
inner thigh abrasion, no documentation was found indicating the presence of a PU/PI to the sacrum/coccyx
area.
-On May 14, 2024, a left thigh rear abrasion, a left lower leg skin tear, and a right inner thigh abrasion were
noted, no documentation was found indicating the presence of a sacrum/coccyx PU/PI.
Additional Skin and Wound Evaluations for Resident D were reviewed.
-On May 20, 2024, records indicated a pressure wound, located on the coccyx had .Obscured

On May 24, 2024, at 1:20 p.m., and interview with concurrent record view was conducted with Licensed
Vocational Nurse (LVN) 1. LVN 1 stated, Resident D was seen by the wound care treatment team and does
not have a urinary catheter in place. LVN 1 stated the Comprehensive skin note for May 2, 2024 mentioned
the skin tear and abrasion to Resident D's leg, there was no mention of the sacral/coccyx PU/PI, and the
skin comprehensive evaluations dated May 7, 2024 and May 14, 2024 mentioned the skin tear and
abrasions, and no mention of a sacral or coccyx pressure wound, the first note documenting the pressure
injury to the sacrum/ coccyx was on May 20, 2024. LVN 1 stated the weekly comprehensive skin evaluation
should have documentation for Resident D's sacral/coccyx wounds, with the measurements and description
of the wound itself, LVN 1 could not find appropriate documentation.
On May 24, 2024, at 2:35 p.m., an interview was conducted with the Hospice Nurse (HN). The HN stated
he sees the Resident D about once a week, assess her, gets a set of vital signs, provides wound care,
takes measurements, and reviews the current pressure injury with the hospice physician for additional
orders. The HN stated Resident D's pressure ulcer has had rapid progression, Resident D is declining
quickly, the pressure wound to her sacral area was small, a stage 1 or 2 and healed up, but reopened and
is getting worse.
On May 28, 2024, at 10:25 a.m. an interview and concurrent record review were conducted with LVN 2. LVN
2 stated comprehensive skin evaluations should be completed every week on each resident with any skin
complications (skin tears, pressure injuries, rashes, abrasions), Resident D's pressure ulcer to her coccyx
area would come and go. LVN 2 stated his comprehensive note from May 20, 2024, indicated the wound
had re-opened and did not indicate a depth in his measurements, he did not think it needed to be
measured because slough made it unstageable, a note from the HN on the same date stated it was a
Stage 2, and he should have measured for a depth, and when slough is present it has to be considered a
Stage 3 per wound care guidelines. LVN 2 could not find documentation of Resident D's pressure ulcer to
her sacrum/coccyx after reviewing his notes on May 2, 2024, May 7, 2024, or May 14, 2024. LVN 2 stated
he did not know a provider from the specialty wound care team, had treated Resident D's pressure injury
on the same day he did, he did not make arrangements or collaborate with the wound team, and Resident
D received two treatments on the same day, one from him and one from the wound care team. LVN 2 stated
he forgot to include complete measurements and descriptions of Resident D's pressure injury in several of
his notes, he overlooked the required documentation.
A review of the facility's policy titled Hospice Program, dated July 2017, indicated .Hospice services are
available to residents .certified as being terminally ill .it is the responsibility of the hospice to manage the
resident's care as it relates to the terminal illness and related condition .it is the responsibility of the facility
to meet the resident's personal care and nursing needs in coordination with the hospice representative, and
ensure that the level of care provided is appropriately based on the individual resident's needs .coordinated
care plans for residents receiving hospice services .in order to maintain the resident's highest practicable
physical, mental and psychosocial well-being .coordinated care plan shall be revised and updated as
necessary to reflect the resident's current status including .skin integrity .mobility and repositioning .
A review of the facility's protocol titled Pressure Ulcers/Skin Breakdown, dated April 2018, indicated .the
nurse shall describe and document/report the following .full assessment of pressure sore including location,
stage, length, width and depth, present of exudate or necrotic (dead) tissue .The physician will clarify the
status of relevant medical issues .the impact of comorbid conditions on healing an existing wound
.physician will order pertinent wound treatments .
