On 4/25/23 at 11:00am, observed R93 in bed asleep, and breathing. R93's lower extremities covered with a
blanket. List of restorative devices, R93 is on the list for bilateral knee immobilizer.
Physician orders says bilateral knee immobilizer on at all times, may remove for inspection and hygiene

Restorative initiated the immobilizer. I re-evaluated R93, and the bilateral knee immobilizer was change on
4/26/23 to bilateral knee splint. With scheduling time, alternating schedule time. We don't put two
immobilizers both at the same time, and I recommended to make a wearing schedule for the alternating
wearing time for right and left knee splint at this time. On my assessment there are more flexion and
worsening of contractions.
On 4/27/23 at 1240pm (V13) stated that the immobilizer is used immobilized the legs of any resident with
order for immobilizer. R93 has that contracture, and it is most likely ordered to prevent further contraction.

sacrum date identified on 1/16/23, has 80% deep [NAME] and 20% beefy red tissues, no exudate,
measures 0.40cm x 0.50cmx0.10cm. Informed V3 that R67's MASD is not addressed in care plan. R67 was
provided wound treatment of calcium alginate without physician order and inappropriate treatment for DTI.

new open wounds on both right and left gluteal. V3 said that any skin/wound changes observed should
notify the physician for appropriate treatment order and update care plan. V3 said that wound treatment
should have physician order. V3 said that calcium alginate is inappropriate treatment given for R67 because

risk for skin impairment. R42 is on wound vac for Stage 4 pressure ulcer. Informed V3 of observation made
on 4/24/23 that she has multiple layers of linen (folded linen in quarter) over the flat sheet covering the LAL
mattress. R42 does not have order for LAL mattress. V3 said that R42 should have written order for LAL
mattress as part for wound management and she should have only 1 flat sheet over the LAL mattress.
Quick reference topical wound care provided by V3 ADON indicated that Calcium alginate is used for
moderate to heavy wound drainage.
On 4/27/23 at 12:12pm, V25 RN said that she did the wound treatment of R67 from 4/20 to 4/24/23 on
sacral area. She said that V24 Wound Care Nurse is not available for those days that's why she did R67's
wound treatment. V25 denied that she applied the calcium alginate to R67's sacral wound. She said that
she applied the dermaseptin ointment to the superficial open wound on sacral area and covered with foam
dressing. She said that R67 has superficial sacral open wound that has been there since she did her
treatment. She said that she does not know if there is a change in R67's skin condition because she does
not read the wound report done by V24 WCN. V25 said that wound treatment is administered per physician
order, they cannot apply treatment without an order. V25 said that any changes in skin/wound condition
should be called to physician for appropriate treatment.
Facility's policy on Pressure Ulcer Prevention indicates:
Purpose: To prevent and treat pressure sores/pressure injury.
Guidelines:

provide appropriate care for a resident with a feeding tube.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to check a Gastrostomy tube (GT) for proper
placement prior to administration of medication. This deficiency affects one (R212) of three residents in the
sample of 29 reviewed for Tube feeding management.
Findings include:
R212 is admitted on [DATE] with diagnosis listed in part but not limited to Parkinson's disease,
Gastrostomy, Collagenous colitis, Gastro-esophageal reflux disease. Physician order sheet indicated:
