On 7/11/19 at 1423 hours, an interview was conducted with the Administrator.

Findings: Review of the facility's P&P titled Pressure Sore Prevention (undated) showed it is the policy of the facility to identify at risk residents and to define early interventions for prevention of pressure ulcers. In individuals who are at high risk, the goal will be aimed at reducing the risk factors and at instituting preventative measures. Interventions will have four overall goals including to protect against the adverse effects of external mechanical forces (pressure, friction, and shear). Strategies to prevent pressure ulcers for bed bound individuals included to use devices that totally relieve pressure on the heels. Skin care included to inspect the resident's skin at least every day. The above interventions should be included on the written care plan for each resident assessed to be at risk for developing pressure ulcers. Review of the facility's P&P titled Pressure Ulcers/Injuries Overview revised 7/17 showed the pressure ulcer/injury refers to localized damage to the skin and/or underlying soft tissue usually over a bony prominent area. Pressure ulcers/injuries occur as a result of intense and/or prolonged pressure or pressure in combination with shear, and may be painful. Avoidable means the resident developed a pressure ulcer/injury and that one or more of the following was not completed: evaluation of the resident's clinical condition and risk factors; and definition or implementation of interventions that are consistent with the resident's needs, goals, and professional standards of practice.

An Unstageable pressure ulcer appears as full-thickness skin and tissue loss in which the extent of tissue damage within the ulcer cannot be confirmed because the wound bed is obscured by slough or eschar (dead tissue). Review of the National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel's Clinical Practice Guideline titled Prevention and Treatment of Pressure Ulcers dated 2014 showed the reduction of pressure and shear at the heel is an important point of interest in clinical practice. The posterior prominence of the heel sustains intense pressure, even when a pressure redistribution surface is used. The recommendations showed to inspect the skin of the heels regularly and to ensure the heels are free of the surface of the bed for preventing and treating heel pressure ulcers. Ideally, the heels should be free of all pressure - a state sometimes called "floating heels" or "offloading." Pressure on the heels can be relieved by elevating the lower leg and calf from the mattress by placing a pillow under the lower legs, or by using a heel suspension device that floats the heel. Consequently, the pressure will instead spread to the lower legs, and the heels will no longer be subjected to pressure. On 7/9/19 at 0939 hours, during the initial tour of the facility, Resident 58 was observed lying on a regular mattress.

This created the potential for continued use of inappropriate antibiotics for residents. Findings: According to the Center for Disease Control, the repeated and/or improper use of antibiotics was the primary cause of the proliferation of drug-resistant bacteria. Each time a person used antibiotics, sensitive bacteria were killed; however, resistant bacteria may be left. These resistant bacteria may then grow and multiply. When antibiotics failed to work, the consequences included longer lasting illnesses, extended hospital stays, and the need for more expensive and toxic medications. Some resistant infections can even cause death. Review of the Infection Control Surveillance Logs for the months of January to June 2019 showed the following number of residents whose conditions did not meet McGeer's Criteria (a set of criteria used in long term care facilities to determine if a resident's signs and symptoms met the criteria of a true infection): - January 2019: 1 incident - February 2019: 5 incidents - March 2019: 2 incidents - April 2019: 9 incidents - May 2019: 3 incidents - June 2019: 3 incidents On 7/12/19 at 1029 hours, an interview and concurrent review of the facility's infection control program was conducted with the Infection Preventionist.

This REQUIREMENT is not met as evidenced by: Based on observation and interview, the facility failed to ensure all facility residents had functioning call lights. This deficient practice resulted in residents not being able to use the call light to communicate their needs. Findings: On 7/9/19 at 0828 hours, during the facility's initial tour, Resident 73 was sitting on his bed eating breakfast. The call light cord was observed tied on the side rail with the activation end of the cord lying on the floor. Resident 73 bent forward and tried to reach for the end of the call light containing the button to push to call for assistance but was unable to reach it. Resident 73 pulled on the call light cord connected to the plug at the wall. On 7/9/19 at 0839 hours, the call light indicator located outside Resident 73's door was observed not lit.
