Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observations, record reviews, and interviews the facility failed to provide wound care in a sanitary manner that would promote healing for two residents (#61 and #26) out of two residents as evidenced by cleaning and dressing three separate wounds at the same time; not completing hand hygiene between the cleaning and dressing of wounds; leaving wounds uncovered; and not wearing personal protective equipment during wound care. Residents Affected - Few Findings included: 1. The policy titled, Dressing Change, effective 11/30/2014 and revised 12/6/2017, identified that a clean dressing would be applied by a nurse to a wound as ordered to promote healing. A review of the admission Record for Resident #61 was admitted on [DATE], 3/22/19, and 4/23/21. The admission Record identified diagnoses not limited to Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus without complications, acquired absence of right leg above knee, and unspecified peripheral vascular disease. The Quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS), dated [DATE], indicated the resident scored a 15 out of 15 for his Brief Interview of Mental Status (BIMS) score indicating the resident was cognitively intact. An observation was conducted, on 5/25/21 at 1:42 p.m., with Staff E, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) and Staff F, Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA). Staff E gathered the supplies necessary: - bottle of Dakins solution - 3 packages of Calcium Alginate - 2 rolls of gauze - 15 vials of Normal Saline - 12 packages of 4x4 inch gauze - 4 island dressings. Staff E, LPN obtained scissors from the Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON) and cleaned them with a Sani-cloth. She placed the supplies on a piece of wax paper, carried them into Resident #61's room, and placed it on the over-the-bed (obt) table. Staff E washed her hands and donned gloves. The LPN instructed Staff F to stay clean while she assisted the resident to his right side. Staff E removed the left and right ischiums and the sacral area dressings and placed them in a red biohazard bag. As she doffed her gloves, she instructed Staff F to open the gauze packages, and placed the biohazard bag in the trash receptacle near the door. The Staff F, CNA opened the packages and was observed flattening gauze packages with her right hand and Staff E asked her to cut a piece of rolled gauze from the roll and poured Dakins into the other package of rolled gauze. Staff E, LPN poured Dakins over the piece of Kerlix and patted the outside of the three wounds in the rotation of left ischium, sacrum, then right ischium. With the same piece of rolled gauze used to clean the outside of the wounds, Staff E patted the inside of the three wounds in the same rotation: left ischium, sacrum, and right ischium. After finishing the cleaning of the wounds, she used 4x4 gauzes, obtained from Staff F to pat dry all three wounds. Staff E packed the other roll of guaze that had been wettened with Dakins (continued on next page) FORM CMS-2567 (02/99) Previous Versions Obsolete Event ID: Facility ID: 105482 If continuation sheet Page 9 of 31 Printed: 05/28/2026 Form Approved OMB No. 0938-0391 Department of Health & Human Services Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services STATEMENT OF DEFICIENCIES AND PLAN OF CORRECTION (X1) PROVIDER/SUPPLIER/CLIA IDENTIFICATION NUMBER: (X2) MULTIPLE CONSTRUCTION 105482 B.

Staff E gathered and removed the trash of supplies and placed scissors onto the barrier. Staff E ungloved and washed her hands as Staff F placed the top onto the bottle of Dakins. After donning gloves, Staff E donned gloves and changed the resident's linens then moved the obt to the end of the bed. After sanitizing her hands and donning gloves, Staff E used scissors to cut the rolled gauze from the resident's left foot, ungloved, washed hands, and re-gloved. Staff E stated the wound was closed and sanguineous drainage was observed on the dressing that the staff had removed. The nurse irrigated the wounds on the resident's side of left foot and the left heel with normal saline, placed a piece of Calcium Alginate to the wound bed of the left heel and wrapped the foot with rolled gauze. The nurse removed her gloves, washed hands, donned gloves, and removed gauze from the resident's abdomen. She opened a package of gauze and vial of normal saline to the side of bed and placed a piece of Alginate to the suprapubic area of the abdomen. The nurse gathered the dirty supplies, leaving three packages of gauze and a package of an island dressing. She washed and re-gloved her hands then reached out the door and brought a Sani-cloth into the room, and used it to wipe down the obt, scissors then the bottle of Dakins. She then placed the scissors and bottle of Dakins on the treatment cart that was parked in the hallway outside of the resident's room. Immediately after leaving Resident #61's room, an interview was conducted with Staff E, LPN. The wound care observation was discussed, and the staff member stated that she had Staff F open up all the packages because she did not want to cross-contaminate and had washed her hands before dressing the left ischium, right ischium, and sacrum. The LPN confirmed she probably should not have cleaned and dressed the three wounds at the same time. On 5/27/21 at 11:16 a.m., the Infection Control Preventionist (ICP)/ADON stated that Staff E should have dispensed the Dakins before entering the resident's room (not bringing in the whole bottle) and that the three wounds should have been cleaned and dressed separately. The ICP stated that handwashing should be done after cleaning the wound and putting dressing on.
