She said that around 10:45 am, she attempted to put R50's shoes back on her but R50 took them back off. V7 said she could have put on non-slip socks on R50, but she didn't do it because she knew R50 was going to get a shower that day. V7 said that she should have put on non-slip socks on R50 because she could have got up and fell. On 01/11/24 at 12:38 PM, V1 (Administrator) said staff should have replaced R50's shoes or put non-slip socks on her because R50 is a fall risk, and it would prevent her from slipping and falling. R50 EHR (Electronic Health Record) showed that she is a [AGE] year old female admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including high risk for falls, history of right knee pain, schizophrenia, and psychoactive drug use. R50's 11/22/23 care plan showed that she has had falls on 2/15, 2/25, 3/15, 3/27, 5/15, 6/8, 6/15, 7/7, 8/1, 8/20, 10/31, and 11/6.

V13 said that the way R75 was wearing the non-slip socks could cause her to fall. On 01/11/24 at 12:35 PM, V1 (Administrator) said that R75's sock should have been applied properly even if she dressed herself. V1 said staff should have ensured they were on properly to prevent R75 from slipping and falling. R75's 6/18 care plan showed high risk for falls related to diagnoses of Huntington's disease. R75's care plan showed R75 had falls on 5/14, 5/27, 5/31, 6/18, 6/28, 7/6, 7/25, 8/6, 8/21, and 11/14. The care plan showed interventions including put nonskid socks on resident daily.

F 0697 Provide safe, appropriate pain management for a resident who requires such services. Level of Harm - Actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to assess and address pain before and during wound care to a resident. This failure has caused severe pain for one resident during dressing changes. This applies to 1 of 2 residents (R54) reviewed pain management in a sample of 31. Residents Affected - Few The Findings include: R54 is a [AGE] year-old male admitted on [DATE] with cognition intact as per the Minimum Data Set (MDS) dated [DATE]. On 1/10/24 at 2:20 PM, observed V5 (Wound Care Nurse) and V7 (Certified Nursing Assistant CNA/Memory Care Director) begin to provide wound care to R54's coccyx wound without assessing for pain. Observed V5 and V7 using the mattress linen to pull him up on the bed and R54 complaining of pain, saying, I have too much pain. In response to R54's pain, V5 said to R54, I know your nurse gave you pain medication. On 1/10/24 at 2:25 PM, V5 and V7 turned R54 to his right side to provide wound treatment to his coccyx wound. V5 sprayed wound cleanser on his unstageable wound (as per V5) and wiped it. R54 again complained of pain, saying, Ohh .too much pain, it's hurting. In response to R54's pain, V5 replied, I am not touching you now. On 1/10/24 at 2:35 PM, in response to the surveyor's inquiry, R54 stated, I have pain all over the place. It is 7 out of 10. I was given Norco, and it is not helping. On 1/10/24 at 2:35 PM, V5 stated, R54 was given pain medication, and that's why I didn't ask him for his pain level before starting. I am not sure I should have stopped treatment when he complained of pain. I have to look at the policy to see whether I should have stopped when R54 complained of pain during treatment. On 01/11/24 at 10:37 AM, R54 stated, Every day, I have pain when they do wound care. They give me one Norco pill, and that doesn't do anything. 01/11/24 10:45 AM, V2 (Director of Nursing / DON) stated, Our standard of practice is assessing residents for pain before wound care. The wound care nurse should have assessed the resident for pain before she started with wound care and should have stopped the wound treatment when the resident complained of pain during treatment. 01/11/24 10:15 AM V6 (Wound Care Nurse Practitioner) stated, Pain assessment is crucial before wound care, and the pain should be managed well. If pain is not managed well, it can cause the resident to deny treatment and care. The patient should have been assessed for pain. If the patient complains of pain during wound care, she should hold it and manage the pain to have a pleasant experience for the resident. The facility presented a wound care policy revised in the October 2010 document: 2. Review the resident's care plan to assess for any special needs (including pain as per Administrator) of the resident.
