Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure staff followed infection control standards to prevent the possible development and transmission of infection during wound care for 1 of 2 residents reviewed for wounds, Resident #3 (Phoyographic evidence obtained). Residents Affected - Few Findings include: During an observation of wound care for Resident #3 on 7/26/2023 at 9:33 AM with the Wound Care Nurse and the Risk Manager/Registered Nurse (RN), the resident's leg was resting on top of a pillow with a barrier over the pillow. The Risk Manager lifted the resident's right leg revealing stains to the wound dressing on the bottom at the right heel. The Wound Care Nurse removed the soiled dressing. The Risk Manager placed the resident's leg back down on the barrier. The Wound Care Nurse proceeded to clean the wound. The Risk Manager lifted the resident's right foot and the Wound Care Nurse cleansed Resident #3's right heel. Blood stains were observed on the middle portion of the barrier. After cleaning the wounds, the resident's leg was placed back down on the contaminated blood-stained barrier.

During an interview on 7/26/2023 at 10:07 AM, the Risk Manager stated, I could not see if the foot was touching the pad from where I was standing.
