F 0686 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 observations, interviews, and record reviews, the facility failed to follow the professional standards for the care and management of pressure ulcers for 1 of 2 residents reviewed for wound care (Resident #1). The findings included: According to the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), avoidable pressure ulcer injury means the resident developed a pressure ulcer/injury, and the staff failed to do one or more of the following : Evaluate the resident's clinical condition and risk factors. Define and implement interventions that are consistent with resident needs and goals and follow professional standards of practice. Monitor and evaluate the impact of the interventions. Revise interventions as appropriate. A record review revealed Resident #1 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] and was transferred to a hospital on 9/26/25. The admitting diagnoses included in part, Cerebral Aneurysm, Atherosclerotic Heart Disease of Native Coronary Artery without Angina Pectoris, Reflux Uropathy, Essential Hypertension and Spondylosis without Myelopathy or Radiculopathy of the Lumbar region. A review of the admission Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE] under Section C for the Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) revealed a score of 14, indicating Resident #1 had no cognitive impairment. Section GG documented this resident was staff dependent on eating, personal hygiene, toileting, and upper and lower body dressing. Section M documented a no response to the presence of a pressure ulcer or injury, and pressure ulcer and injury care. An additional review of electronic nursing care plan with focus on skin integrity related to history of healed wound was initiated on 8/20/25. On 9/1/25, another focus indicating the old pressure ulcer was reopened and treatment was initiated; and an additional focus was added on 9/10/25, with a note documenting the wound worsened, reevaluated, and changed. An electronic nursing care plan review documented the intervention for wound care consult was added on 9/8/25, approximately 4 weeks after Resident #1's admission to the facility. Additional review of nursing interventions documented that the air mattress was added on 9/10/25, and the wedge cushion to reposition and off load to be placed under the back every shift was initiated on 9/25/25, indicating both air mattress and wedge cushions were added approximately 5, and 7 weeks after Resident #1's admission to the facility. In an interview conducted with Wound Care Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) on 10/7/25 at 11:20 AM, when she was asked the process of skin assessment during admission, she responded, If no skin issues are found, but if there are risks. she will initiate an air mattress order for preventative measure. She added that the resident might get the air mattress in a couple of hours after admission. If admitted before 4:30 PM, the mattress will be issued within the first 2 hours of admission to the facility. If admitted late at night, the mattress will be provided to the resident on the following day. She added that the facility has uploaded wedges, pillows, donut and cushion for wheelchairs. All the Inter Disciplinary Team (IDT) members, Central Supply personnel and Therapy staff will coordinate the care of a resident who has skin risk assessment for pressure ulcer and they will decide which preventative measures would be appropriate. She stated that within 2 days after Residents Affected - Few (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.

F 0686 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete admission, a resident who is at risk for skin breakdown will have the necessary supplies to prevent the development of pressure ulcer. She added that they have weekly skin check, where the Nurse will go in and observe the body for any new areas forming and document the findings in the computer, on skin observation under the assessment tab. When she was asked if it is possible to have stage 4 pressure ulcer after a month of staying in the facility, she stated that it would first start with visible skin issues like redness, excoriation, deteriorating, then stage 1, but usually not stage 4 right away. She had not witnessed a resident who did not have any skin opening during admission and then a month later turned into stage 4 pressure ulcer. When she was asked if there was a facility acquired pressure ulcer in September 2025, she responded, Resident #1, because this resident came in with scar tissue on the sacrum, which was closed, and with no drainage. I did not take a picture of the sacrum during admission, and I wrote buttocks on her nursing admission skin assessment which was electronically submitted on 8/20/25. I performed the skin assessment on 8/20/25, but I corrected the word buttocks into sacrum later. She added that she initiated preventive measures like barrier cream, offloading measures, wedges and air mattress, but wedges and air mattress were not provided to Resident #1 because the resident had no open wound on admission. When she was asked if there were risk for the development of pressure ulcer for this resident, she responded that this resident had a risk of developing pressure ulcer. She ordered the air mattress and wedges on 09/09/25, which was approximately 3 weeks after Resident #1's admission to the facility. She ordered them because the resident was not thriving. The resident was refusing to eat, drink, refusing clean up, and frequently with closed mouth. The resident had sacral excoriation only on 9/9/25, then stage 1 within the same week, according to Wound Care LPN. On 9/18/25, staff stated Resident #1's sacral wound was Stage 4. Staff added that the exacerbation of sacral wound was related to generalized decline of resident, and it was according to the wound physician. The doctor did not stage the wound of Resident #1 according to the Wound Care LPN. She admitted that she did not intervene immediately at admission. She added that according to the wound physician, no amount of intervention can prevent the occurrence of Stage 4 pressure ulcer, a few weeks after admission to the facility. On 8/20/25, she wrote the admission skin assessment, but she did not see the resident again until 9/2/25. She admitted that she wrote 3 late entries in the nursing progress notes. She added that she saw the resident after a nurse called her that Resident #1's skin on the sacral area was starting to break down. When she was asked why there were 3 late entries in the nursing progress notes regarding her skin assessment, she responded, Because I was not doing my weekly skin notes. When she was asked why she was not doing the weekly skin notes, she responded, I do not know. In an interview conducted with Staff B, an LPN on 10/7/25 at 12:42 PM, when she was asked regarding Resident #1's pressure ulcer, she stated she did not remember, but she remembered this resident was refusing care frequently, although she did not remember when Resident #1 started to refuse care. When she was asked if she monitored the skin weekly, she responded, Yes. When she was asked how she prevents pressure ulcer development, she responded, I follow the facility's policy, use barrier cream, wash and dry the sacral area, and perform incontinent change often. I will ask the staff CNAs to turn and reposition the resident. She added that she will use pillows to take pressure off the sacral area and any bony prominences. When she was asked if she monitors the CNAs when they were doing the turning and repositioning tasks, she responded, Sometimes.

When Staff I, a CNA was asked if she frequently provides urinary catheter care to Resident #3, she responded, Yes, every time I am assigned to him. When she was asked if the secure system is always attached to the resident's, she responded, Sometimes. When she was asked if she reattaches the secure system (anchor)when it becomes detached, she responded, Nurses do that. When she was asked if she will tell the staff Nurse regarding the detachment of the secure system, she responded, I always tell the Nurse. During the same urinary care observation, Staff I, CNA did not change her gloves from beginning until the end. When she was asked why she kept the same gloves for cleaning the resident's urinary meatus, penis, inner thighs, catheter tubing, bed cover, bed remote control, call light and gown, she did not respond.
