change, I take it as it was completed.
During an interview on 5/15/2025 at 9:59 AM, the Wound Care Nurse stated, I can do the dressing change,

Care nurse is responsible for. He [the Wound Care Nurse] has his own laptop. He is the one who should be

dressing is done and if not, they should do it.

medical records for 1 of 1 resident reviewed for enteral feeding (Resident #349) and 1 of 6 residents
reviewed of 5 residents reviewed for immunizations (Resident #29).
Findings include:
1) During an observation on 5/14/2025 at 8:24 AM, Staff E, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN), administered
medication to Resident #349 via gastric tube (G-tube). The split gauze around the gastric tube was dated
5/11/2025 and had staff initials written with black marker.
During an interview on 5/14/2025 at 8:55 AM, Staff E, LPN, stated, [Resident #349's name] gauze is dated

During an interview on 5/15/2025 at 9:03 AM, Staff G, LPN, stated, The wound care nurse is the one who
does the dressing change. We are responsible for checking it off on the TAR, but if the wound care nurse
does not communicate with me that he has not done the dressing change, I take it as it was completed.
During an interview on 5/15/2025 at 9:59 AM, the Wound Care Nurse stated, I can do the dressing change,
but I thought the nurses do the gastric tube dressing changes. If the nurse sees the dressing change is not
done, she could come to me and ask me or change the dressing.
During an interview on 5/15/2025 at 10:27 AM, the Director of Nursing (DON) stated, Anything wound or
skin related, the Wound Care nurse is responsible for. He [the Wound Care Nurse] has his own laptop. He is

witnessed by the Director of Nursing (DON), and dated 8/7/2024.
Review of Resident #29's medical records showed no Informed Consent for Pneumococcal Vaccine
indicating that the resident declined the vaccination.

consents they received, and that they typically began administering the influenza vaccines a few days after
obtaining consent, when the ordered vaccines arrived from the pharmacy.

if a resident changed their mind regarding a vaccine, where they had initially signed a declination but
decided they did want the vaccine, that the nurse would have the resident sign a new form indicating they
gave consent for the vaccine.
During an interview on 5/15/2025 at approximately 12:10 PM, the DON stated that they were not able to
locate a declination form for the pneumonia vaccine for Resident #29, even though it was documented as
having been refused, and that the expectation was that the resident would sign a declination form and that
it would be uploaded into his medical record.

was necessary to remove his gloves and perform hand hygiene between removing Resident #29's dressing
and applying the prescribed cleanser, because the wound was considered dirty until after he applied the
cleanser.
During an interview on 5/14/2025 at 11:25 AM, the DON stated that the expectation for wound care was for
the nurse, after taking off an old soiled dressing, to remove their gloves, perform hand hygiene, and don
clean gloves before applying a cleansing agent, and again after applying the cleansing agent before
applying the clean dressing.
During an interview on 5/15/2025 at 3:45 PM, the DON stated that nurses should not store scissors in their
pockets and they should keep them in the treatment cart. The DON also stated that scissors should be
cleaned, at least with an alcohol wipe, before and after use, during wound care.
