Safeguard resident-identifiable information and/or maintain medical records on each resident that are in
accordance with accepted professional standards.
Based on interviews and record review, the facility failed to ensure accurate documentation of the medical
records for one (Resident 2) of three sampled residents. Resident 2's Treatment Administration Record
(TARs) for wound care treatment to the left foot, gangrenous toes was signed off (initialed) as done by the
Registry (temporary contracted employee) Licensed Vocational Nurse (RLVN) for six days, when RLVN was
not present or assigned to care for Resident 2.
This failure resulted in inaccurate medical record wound care documentation.
Findings:
Review of the Annual-Minimum Data Set (MDS - an assessment screening tool used to guide care), dated
11/08/22, indicated: Resident 2's Basic Interview of Mental status (BIMS) score was 15 (meaning
cognitively intact). Resident 2 had diabetic (blood sugar disorder) foot ulcers and dressing. Resident 2 ' s
diagnoses included diabetes mellitus and peripheral vascular disease (a circulatory condition in which
narrowed blood vessels reduce blood flow to the lmbs).
Review of the order summary report dated 2/26/23, indicated the physician ordered Resident 2 ' s left foot
gangrenous toes be applied with A&D to dry areas and may wrap foot with loose kerlix (gauze) for comfort,
daily in the morning.
Review of the Treatment Administration Record (TAR) dated 2/6/23 through 2/11/23 indicated wound care
treatments for Resident 2's left foot gangrene toes was signed off as done with LVN's initials.
During a review of the TARs and concurrent interview on 2/13/23 at 11:25 a.m., Licensed Vocational Nurse
(LVN 1) stated she was the charge nurse on day shift . LVN 1 stated she did not do the wound treatments
for Resident 2 ' s wounds. LVN 1 further stated the initial on the TAR documentation was not her initials.

provide care for Resident 2 on 2/6/23 to 2/11/23.
During an interview on 2/13/23 at 1:54 p.m., Admin stated the facility did not use Registry LVN on the day
shift for the week of 2/6/23 through 2/11/23.
During an interview on 3/7/23 at 10:30 a.m., DON stated LVN 1 no longer worked at the facility. DON further
