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 interviews, record review, and a review of facility policies and procedures, the facility failed to appropriately address one (Resident #72) of one resident reviewed for pressure injury, by failing to provide services to prevent pressure ulcers in accordance with professional standards of practice to meet the resident's physical needs, including assistance with repositioning due to a casted lower left extremity and off-loading measures to prevent pressure injury. The facility failed to update the Matrix for a facility-acquired pressure injury and failed to update the resident's Care Plan and Minimum Data Set assessment (MDS) to include fracture and acquired pressure wound. The findings include:A review of Resident #72's medical record revealed an admission date of 8/29/2025. The resident was documented with a fall in the facility on 8/22/2025 and subsequently began to complain of left ankle pain. An X-ray was performed on the left lower extremity (LLE) that revealed a fracture, and the resident was admitted to the hospital on [DATE]. She returned to the facility on 8/29/2025 with a cast on her LLE. An admission assessment and a skin sweep completed on 8/29/2025 revealed no skin conditions. Subsequent daily skilled charting from 8/29/2025 to 9/1/2025 revealed no new changes to skin integrity. Resident #72's medical diagnoses included multiple sclerosis, displaced spiral fracture of shaft of left tibia, subsequent encounter for closed fracture with routine healing, Type 2 diabetes mellitus with unspecified complications, contracture of right and left knee, other reduced mobility, abnormal posture, need for assistance with personal care, muscle weakness (generalized), other rheumatoid arthritis with rheumatoid factor of unspecified site, vitamin D deficiency, unspecified.A review of the MDS assessment dated [DATE] and the quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE] revealed a BIMS score of 9 out of 15 possible points, indicating mild to moderate cognitive impairment. Section M of the MDS for both dates documented responses of No to resident has pressure ulcer/injury and No to does resident have one or more unhealed pressure ulcers.A review of Resident #72's active physician's orders revealed the following:9/24/2025 - Enhanced Barrier Precautions (EBP) related to wound.9/15/2025 - Cleanse left buttock with normal saline, pat dry, apply skin prep to surrounding tissue, apply Honey hydrogel sheet and cover with bordered gauze dressing every shift for Stage 3 pressure Injury and as needed If soiled or removed9/4/2025 - 9/15/2025 - Cleanse left buttock with soap and water, pat dry, apply Zinc oxide and leave open to air every shift for deep tissue injury and as needed If soiled or removed, 8/29/2025: No wound or skin orders for left buttock8/29/2025 - Patient to have extended leg rest while up in wheelchair to promote posture and comfort as indicated.7/30/2024 - 8/29/2025 - Patient to use donut pillow when in bed to aid in pressure relief on buttocks.

The patient has a primary diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis, with secondary diagnoses of muscle weakness and contracture of left knee. The patient is alert and oriented x3 (person, place, time). The care plan has been updated as follows: Call don't fall sign. A skin assessment, vital signs, and range of motion (ROM) evaluation were completed. Staff reinforced the importance of adhering to the prescribed interventions, and the patient verbalized understanding.8/29/2025 IDT Note: [Resident #72] has rheumatoid arthritis and contractures, as well as her bed high off the ground, which is care planned for as non-compliance and has been educated. Her x-ray showed a fracture but did not specify acute but has multiple fractures that are consistent with rheumatoid arthritis. That is not adverse, especially with her decision to have her bed up high and transfer attributed to having to be lowered to the floor. Interventions were in place for her safety and to reduce falls risk.8/29/2025- 9/1/2025 Electronic Medical Record (EMR) Daily Skilled Charting documented the following:8/29/2025 - 9/1/2025 - No new changes to skin integrity noted.8/29/2025 Nursing Admission/readmission Screening: No skin conditions noted8/29/2025 - Weekly Skin Sweep: Skin not impaired, no conditions noted.8/29/2025 - Nursing Note: Resident transported on stretcher via Ambulance Services and readmitted to room [ROOM NUMBER]A.

She inquired about long she would have to have the cast on.On 9/24/2025 at 1:30 PM, Resident #72 was observed sitting halfway up in bed. She was awake and alert. She stated she had not been out of bed since she returned from the hospital. She was asked if she was receiving care for a wound and she answered, Yes, they changed it this morning. It stings some when they put the new bandage on.On 9/25/2025 at 11:08 AM, Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) D stated a resident requiring assistance with positioning was turned and repositioned every two hours and as needed. The CNA stated at that time, the resident would be changed if incontinent. Showers were scheduled for three times per week and as needed or per resident preference. CNA D stated CNAs filled out skin sheets or logged any skin conditions in the EMR when they were noticed. She further stated she verbally reported to the nurse when any skin issues were noticed.On 9/25/2025 at 11:24 AM, the Third Floor Unit Manager was asked what admission assessments must be completed for a new resident. She stated, Skin, pain, nursing admission assessments. The assessments that automatically populate and will have a date to show you which ones to do - fall risk. She also stated a head-to-toe skin assessment was done on admission and if any skin issues were found, they would be documented immediately. She stated an order for a wound consultation should also be done and to call the doctor to let them know.On 9/25/2025 at 11:45 AM, the Wound Care Nurse was asked how she was notified of a skin condition. She replied, The nurse will usually tell me. If it's a new admission, the nurses do an admission assessment and then me and the wound care nurse practitioner (WCNP) do a second skin assessment. Every new admission gets a second assessment on each one. Any areas of concern are usually looked at the same day. She stated she rounded with the WCNP typically twice a week on Mondays and Thursdays and they saw the ones on the wound report, the ones that we follow and new admissions. If they have something, we add them onto the wound report. When she was asked about Resident #72 specifically, and how she determined whether the wound was facility-acquired or was present on admission, she replied that the resident was first seen on 9/4/2025 for a new admission skin assessment. A DTI (deep tissue injury) was identified on the resident's left buttock. Usually, when we do a new admission assessment, we put present on admission if there is any wound. If the nurse puts it on the admission assessment, and we knew she didn't have anything prior to her hospitalization, we said present on admission. She was then asked to show the documentation that this wound was present on admission and not facility acquired. She stated, The nurse did not put anything in the admission assessment regarding a skin condition. She was asked if she could pull up anything in the EMR regarding seeing any skin condition on this resident prior to 9/4/2025. In the conference room with the survey team present, she was unable to find any documentation to support that Resident #72 had any skin condition on admission. She was asked to provide the policy and procedure for reporting skin conditions as well as the wound policy. (Copy obtained) The Wound Nurse was asked to provide weekly wound reports for the last four weeks. The report was provided at 12:23 PM. On the report for 9/1/2025 through 9/4/2025, Resident # 72 was seen for a left buttock pressure ulcer/injury DTI on 9/4/2025. It was recorded that the resident's admission date was 8/29/2025 and that the wound was acquired on 8/29/2025.On 9/25/2025 at 12:18 PM, a voicemail was left for the Nurse Practitioner. The call was returned, and she confirmed that she was in the facility on September 1 and September 4, 2025. She stated they did skin sweeps on all admissions and if there was an existing wound it would be listed in the chart, and the wound nurse would let her know. When she was asked why she stated the wound was present on admission she replied, Because I was told by the wound care nurse. I'm not there every day and I rely on what they tell me.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observations, staff interviews, and a review of facility documentation, the facility failed to 1) Follow proper environmental cleaning and disinfection protocols for a resident shared bathroom (room [ROOM NUMBER]) for three consecutive days, 2) Properly dispose of used razors left accessible in two resident rooms (rooms [ROOM NUMBERS]), 3) Properly clean and disinfect identified feces in a resident bathroom shower (room [ROOM NUMBER]), 4) Use appropriate infection control practices by staff failing to don appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) and practice proper hand hygiene when administering medication through a gastrostomy tube (g-tube - feeding tube) for one of seven residents with g-tubes receiving medication. The facility did not meet the standard for providing and maintaining a safe, sanitary environment to prevent the development and transmission of communicable diseases with the potential for increased infection risks for residents and staff. The findings include:1. On 9/22/2025 at 12:18 PM, a tour was conducted on the second-floor unit, where resident room [ROOM NUMBER], housing two residents with a shared bathroom, was observed with the shower curtain rod and clear plastic shower curtain still attached and brown-colored debris lying underneath the toilet and against the wall with additional brown debris on the lower toilet bowl and on the vertical pipe connected to the flushing assembly behind the toilet. Brown-colored debris was smeared along the shower wall and door frame. (Photographic evidence obtained) On 9/24/2025 at 11:48 PM, a second observation of room [ROOM NUMBER]'s bathroom revealed no changes from the previous observation. The shower curtain rod with the shower curtain and brown debris was untouched and the brown-colored matter/debris was still located in the same areas.

She further reported ongoing education was offered several times per year, as needed and during skills fairs. Environment expectations were explained as: If any brown substance of any kind is found in the bathroom, we assume that's biological fluids, so we call housekeeping or grab a glove and disinfectant wipe and clean it, but we don't walk away or wait and leave something like that. She was shown the pictures from room [ROOM NUMBER] and was asked if that should have been left in that condition for three days. She replied, No. That fell through so many staff and should've been caught immediately. She stated her expectation for all staff was to support the infection control program by preventing the spread of infection.On 09/25/2025 at 1:10 AM, an interview was conducted with the Risk Manager, Staff Educator, RN, who reported she oversaw the Risk Management Program to include accidents, incidents and quality assurance including Performance Improvement Plans (PIPS), in addition to providing in-service training to staff.
