into the room and sat the supplies beside the sink. She opened the border dressing and placed it on the
wrapper beside the sink. She dated it with a pen she had removed from her pocket. She then put the pen
back into her pocket. She then opened the gauze sponges and placed them on top of each other on one of
the gauze wrappers also next to the sink. She then moved the stack gauze on the wrapper, the border
dressing on a wrapper, the normal saline and medi-honey onto the bed. She opened the normal saline and
squirted it onto the wound and used the gauze to clean the wound, she replaced the used gauze onto the
same wrapper as the clean gauze. Staff A patted the wound dry with gauze from the same wrapper. She
opened the medi-honey and rubbed it onto the wound with her gloved finger. She then applied the dated
border dressing. She placed the gauze into the trash. She left the remaining normal saline on the sink area.

make the decision of the wound by the appearance of the wound, by looking and evaluating. She stated
that the wounds are evaluated by different nurses, the UMs. The DON stated, We have something
(guidelines) for pressure ulcers, but don't know about the abrasions. She stated they do not use an air

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
During an interview on 02/06/2024 at 3:45 p.m. Staff B, Registered Nurse (RN) Unit Manager (UM) stated
the DON had taught them (the nurses) how to use the measurement tablet. She stated she had no other
wound assessment training other than at (nursing) school. She stated an abrasion was a superficial wound,
a removal of the top layer or skin. She stated it was like shearing. The shearing was possibly done when the
staff moved a resident up in bed or something. She stated they had a paper which showed pictures of the
stages of a pressure ulcer. She stated a stage I pressure ulcer was not open and non-blanchable. She
stated a stage II was an open area. She stated the measuring tablet takes a picture and it transfers to the
electronic medical record and inputs the size of the wound. She stated they must measure the depth
themselves. She stated she would provide the paper they go by for wounds. (It was never provided to the
surveyor by Staff B, RN).
Residents Affected - Some
4. Resident #24 physician orders showed cleanse wound with normal saline, pat dry, apply medi-honey and
alginate to ulcer bed. Do not pack. Apply skin prep to peri-wound are. Cover with self-adhesive foam

her hands, gloved and cleaned the overbed table with the blue top wipes. Staff B, RN washed her hands
and placed gloves on and assisted with positioning the resident. Staff A removed her gloves and hand
washed. The resident was lying in bed on an air mattress. Staff A gathered the supplies and placed them on
the overbed table on the barrier. The bed was moved up, and the resident was turned with the aid of Staff
B. Staff A, LPN removed her gloves, washed her hands and replaced her gloves. She opened the supplies
on the barrier on the overbed table. She removed her gloves, went to the cart and squirted the medi-honey
into a medicine cup (she had brought the medi-honey into the room with her and exited the room and
placed it in a cup and replaced medi-honey into the treatment cart). She then placed the medication cup
onto the barrier. Staff A washed her hands and replaced her gloves. She placed a barrier under the resident
and removed the old, dated dressing. The wound was the size of a tangerine. Staff A (without hand
sanitizing) used normal saline and gauze to cleanse the wound including the edges and inside of the
wound. She patted it dry with gauze. The inside of the wound had a yellow appearance. Staff A removed
her gloves and washed her hands and replaced her gloves. Staff B, RN changed sides with Staff A, LPN.
Staff B, RN measured the wound with the measurement tablet. Staff A, LPN left the resident and retrieved a
clean brief from the closet and returned to the bedside. The wound measured an area of 7.7 cm2. Staff B,
RN used a cotton-tipped applicator to measure the depth. Staff B, RN stated she did not have a paper
measurement to measure the cotton-tipped applicator and would check the measurement of the depth
later. Staff B, RN put the tablet beside the sink on a barrier and went to hold the resident. Staff A, LPN
removed her gloves, washed her hands and replaced her gloves. Using a tongue blade she placed
medi-honey on the wound as well as calcium alginate and a foam dressing over the top.
Staff B, RN stated that they text the physician with the description of the wound and the physician sends
back orders for wound care. Staff B stated when the ARNP was there she would look at the wound and give
us orders. Staff B stated the measurement tablet would not measure the depth, it had to be measured
separately.

An interview was conducted on 2/6/24 at 3:16 p.m. with the Director of Risk Management (DRM) and the
Nursing Home Administrator (NHA). The DRM stated Resident #1 had hit her leg on the wheelchair and
had behaviors of getting out of bed and frailing around. The director stated the reason the skin alteration
was not on the facility log was due to there not being an incident report. The DRM read the only witness
statement obtained, from the nurse, revealed the Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) on duty made me
aware that resident appeared to have struck her leg on the wheelchair next to the bed. The DRM stated it
would have been nice to (have) additional information regarding the laceration in the chart, what happened,
that a pressure dressing had to be applied. She stated she could find out who the CNA was, and a root
cause (analysis) determined the resident had hit her leg on the wheelchair and it did not rise to the level of
injury of unknown origin.
An interview on 2/6/24 at 4:11 p.m., the Regional Nurse Consultant (RNC) stated the facility did not have a
documentation policy. She stated the facility charts change in conditions, skilled, and by exception, which

and Tizanidine showed a moderate interaction and Using Tizanidine together with Cyclobenzaprine may
increase side effects such as dizziness, drowsiness, confusion, and difficulty concentrating. Some people,
especially the elderly, may also experience impairment in thinking, judgment, and motor coordination. In
addition, these medications may also have additive effects in lowering your blood pressure. You may
experience headache, dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting, and/or changes in pulse or heart rate. These
side effects are most likely to be seen at the beginning of treatment, following a dose increase, or when
treatment is restarted after an interruption. The website revealed The recommended maximum number of
medicines in the 'muscle relaxants' category to be taken concurrently is usually one. Your list includes two
