Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observations, record review, interviews, and facility policy review, the facility failed to ensure that four
(Residents #13, #14, #11, and #3) of eight residents with pressure ulcers, from a sample of 18 residents,

(Skin Conditions), dated 1/21/24, revealed the resident has one unstageable pressure ulcer/deep tissue
injury which was not present at admission.
A review of the resident's care plan dated 12/26/23 and revised on 1/2/24, revealed Resident #13 was at
risk for skin impairment related to incontinence, at risk for malnutrition, weakness/decreased mobility,

wound was facility acquired. He said yes.

aware of numerous wound treatments not being signed off as completed on the eTAR. He stated, No, but
frankly it wouldn't surprise me.
When asked if he was aware of wound care not being completed at times. He stated, I wouldn't be

On 2/27/24 at 4:30 pm, an interview was conducted with Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) B. She was asked
if she provides wound care to your residents. She stated, Yes, if I have anyone who needs wound care.
When asked if she knew which residents needed wound care. She stated, It'll come up on the eTAR, some
are daily, every other day or every 3 days, and always as needed for soiling or if the dressing comes off.
When asked how wound care is documented after it is completed. She stated, We check it off on the eTAR.
Write a nurses note if anything unusual or worsening wound and let the wound care nurse know. When
asked how often the wound care nurse does the wound care for residents. She stated, He does them
weekly with the wound PA, and he does wound treatments here and there, but he doesn't do all of them. I
think some people think he does all the wound care, but he doesn't, and everybody should know that he
doesn't do all the treatments every day. When asked if some staff think the wound care nurse will do the
wound care and then they don't do the wound care. She stated, Yes, I hear both agency and staff nurses
say they aren't doing the wound care because there's a wound care nurse to do them. When asked if she
had noticed any dressings on her residents with dates that indicate the dressing had not been changed for
more than 24 hours when it should have been. She stated, Yes, to be honest with you, I have seen that.
When asked what she does when that occurs. She stated, I try and get it done. A lot of times the CNAs will
come and tell me that so and so's dressing is dirty or hasn't been changed in a while, so I'll try
