This survey cited 2 deficiencies. The full statement and the facility’s plan of correction follow, verbatim from the federal record.

F 0684 Provide appropriate treatment and care according to orders, resident’s preferences and goals. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Cross Reference F686Based on interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure physician orders were implemented on 11/29/2025 and 12/1/2025 for five out of five sampled residents (Resident 1, Resident 2, Resident 3, Resident 4, and Resident 5), who required daily treatment for wound (a physical injury to the body, like a cut or tear in the skin) management to maintain the highest practicable physical well-being.This failure resulted in lack of daily wound treatment for:a. Resident 1's stoma (a surgically created opening in the body, usually on the abdomen, that connects an internal organ (like the bowel or urinary system) to the outside, allowing waste (urine or feces) to exit into a collection bag), left ischium (the curved bone forming the base of each half of the pelvis), perineal area (the diamond-shaped region of skin and muscle between the anus and the genitals, extending from the pubic bone to the tailbone), scrotum, and sacrococcyx (lower part of the spine and tail bone). b. Resident 2's prevention of wound injuryc. Resident 3's bilateral extremitiesd. Resident 4's left arm caste. Resident 5's left foot, left plantar, right heel, right ischium, right lateral foot stumpplacing the residents at risk for delayed wound healing and further skin breakdown. A review of Resident 1's admission Record indicated Resident 1 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses of quadriplegia (The complete inability to move due to sever disability frailty caused by another medical condition without physical injury or damage to the spinal cord), colostomy (a surgical procedure where a surgeon creates an opening in the abdominal wall so that stool can leave the body through he abdomen instead of the rectum) status, and open wound of left buttock. A review of Resident 1's Minimum Data Set (MDS- a resident assessment tool) dated 11/1/2025, indicated Resident 1 had intact cognition (the mental ability to think, remember and reason) for decisions of daily living, and required maximal assistance (Helper does MORE THAN HALF the effort. Helper lifts or holds trunk or limbs and provides more than half the effort) for eating. The MDS indicated Resident 1 was dependent (Helper does ALL of the effort. Resident does none of the effort to complete the activity. Or, the assistance of 2 or more helpers is required for the resident to complete the activity) on staff for toileting, lower body dressing, putting on/off footwear, and showering, rolling left and right, sit to lying, lying to sitting on side of bed, and transferring to the shower. The MDS indicated Resident 1 was at risk of developing pressure injuries (an injury that breaks down the skin and underlying tissue when an area of skin is placed under pressure). A review of Resident 1's Order Summary, dated 6/17/2025, indicated for Resident 1, to cleanse with normal saline (NS- a mixture of sodium chloride and water that is used to clean wounds), pat dry apply skin prep around stoma, apply colostomy bag everyday shift for colostomy management. Apply Santyl collagenase (is a prescription medication used to remove dead or damaged tissue from chronic skin ulcers and severe burns. This process helps promote the formation of healthy new tissue and wound healing) ointment to left ischium and perineal area to scrotum, topically every day for surgical wound for 30 days, cleanse with NS, apply collagen pellets, apply calcium Residents Affected - Some (continued on next page) Any deficiency statement ending with an asterisk (*) denotes a deficiency which the institution may be excused from correcting providing it is determined that other safeguards provide sufficient protection to the patients.

A review of Resident 2's admission Record indicated Resident 2 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses of dementia (progressive impaired ability to think, remember or make decisions that interferes with doing everyday activities) and difficulty in walking. A review of Resident 2's MDS, dated [DATE], indicated Resident 2 had moderate impaired cognition (ability to think, remember and reason) for decisions of daily living, and required supervision (Helper provides verbal cues and/or touching/steadying and/or contact guard assistance as resident completes activity.

The MDS indicated Resident 5 was dependent on staff for oral hygiene, toileting, showering, upper and lower body dressing, putting on taking off footwear, personal hygiene, rolling left and right, sit to lying, lying to sitting on side of bed. The MDS indicated Resident 5 was at risk of developing pressure injuries. A review of Resident 5's Order Summary, dated 11/6/2025, indicated cleanse gastrostomy site with NS and apply dry dressing daily every shift. Apply Santyl ointment to left foot, left plantar, right heel, right ischium, right lateral foot stump, topically every day for 30 days. Monitor functionality of LAL mattress every shift for wound management, and provide catheter care (A catheter which is inserted into the bladder, via the urethra or abdomen and remains in place to drain urine) every shift. A review of the Treatment Administration Record (TAR), dated 11/29/2025 and 12/1/2025, the TAR indicated physician-ordered daily wound care was not provided on scheduled days for Residents 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. During an interview on 12/15/2025 at 1:27 PM with the Treatment Nurse (TN), the TN stated he is the only full time TN at the facility, and was scheduled to work on 12/1/2025 but was unable to attend his shift. The TN verified treatments provided to residents on 11/29/2025 and 12/1/2025 on the electronic medical record and stated Residents 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 had not been provided treatment on those days per physician's order. The TN stated there was no documentation indicating treatment was completed, refused, or held. During an interview on 12/15/2025 at 1:58 PM with the Registered Nurse Supervisor (RNS), the RNS stated he worked on 12/1/2025 and was aware there was no assigned treatment nurse during the shift. The RNS stated he did not provide the ordered treatments, did not reassign another licensed nurse to complete treatments, nor was informed of residents who didn't receive treatment. The RNS also verified that treatments for residents on 11/29/2025 was not provided by the treatment nurse assigned that day. The RNS stated the treatment nurse on 11/29/2025 did not report the missed treatments to anyone, including the physician. During an interview on 12/15/2025 at 2:15 PM with the Director of Nursing (DON), the DON stated the facility failed to assign a treatment nurse on 12/1/2025 which resulted in Residents 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 not receiving treatment as ordered per physician. The DON stated she assigned herself to provide treatment on 12/1/2025 because she could not find anyone to provide treatment despite having licensed nurses in the facility that day. The DON stated she did not prioritize residents who required extensive treatment, or had more complicated wounds, hoping she could provide treatment to all residents with physician orders, but failed to complete treatments for at least five residents. The DON stated it is important to follow physician's orders to ensure residents are being provided with the necessary treatment and services to treat resident's diagnosis based on the clinical judgment of the ordering physician. The DON stated this failure placed residents at risk for deteriorating skin integrity. A review of the facility policy and procedures (P&P) titled Medication and Treatment Orders dated 7/2016, indicated, Medications and treatments shall be administered only upon the written order of a person licensed and authorized to prescribe such medications and treatments. A review of the facility P&P titled Competency of Nursing Staff dated 11/2025, indicated, Licensed nurses will demonstrate competencies deemed necessary to care for the needs of residents as identified through resident assessments and described in the plans of care. The staff development and training program is created by the nursing leadership, with input from the medical director, and is designed to train nursing staff to deliver individualized, safe, quality care and services for the residents. Competency in skills and techniques necessary to care for residents' needs includes but is not limited to competencies in areas such as skin and wound care.
