never seen her act that way before. V6 said she let the nurse know and called V1 Administrator like she is
supposed to do for abuse. V6 said she told V1 that R18 was calling R16 a F**** B****. V6 said V1 told her to

Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to obtain treatment orders for

Residents Affected - Few
The findings include:
On 07/29/24 at 09:19 AM, R15 was sitting up in his wheelchair in his room. R15's right arm was covered
with a protective sleeve that had a small amount of dark red dried blood. R15 said he was not sure what
happened to his arm, it happened a few days ago. R15 said he probably bumped it on something.
On 07/29/24 at 11:26 PM, R15 was in his room sitting in his wheelchair. R15 still had the protective sleeve
on his right arm. R15's legs were edematous and red in color. R15's right lower leg had an undated bandaid
in place. R15 lowered the protective sleeve on his right arm and R15 had a pool of blood trapped under a
clear occlusive dressing with a stream of blood leaking out the edge of the dressing. R15 said the bandaid
had been on his leg for a few days and had not been checked or changed since the nurse put it on. R15
said the bandage on his arm had not been looked at since they put the dressing on it.
On 07/30/24 at 9:57 AM, the same dressing was on R15's right arm and the bandaid on R15's leg
remained. R15 said no one had looked at either. V2 Director of Nursing removed tegaderm and soaked up
the dark red serous blood pool. R15 had a small skin flap intact with serous fluid draining. V2 said R15 is on
antibiotics for his leg wound. R15 slowly peeled off the stuck on, undated bandaid on R15's right leg. There
was yellow drainage on the bandaid. V2 stated this looks worse. V2 cleaned both wounds and measured
the wounds. The arm wound was 1.8 cm long (no measurements were done on the width) and the leg
wound was 2.5 cm x 1.5 cm. V2 applied triple antibiotic ointment and an occlusive dressing to both wounds.
On 7/30/24 at 12:18 PM, V2 said there is no current treatment orders for R15's wounds. V2 said whoever
identifies a wound, should call the doctor and get treatment orders, and should notify me and the family.
R15's Physician Orders did not contain orders for R15's right arm skin tear or R15's right leg wound prior to
7/30/24.
R15's Progress Note dated 7/25/24 shows small spot on shin; spot of blood, applied bordered gauze and
antibiotic ointment, will monitor.
R15's Progress Note dated 7/28/24 shows right arm, just below elbow outward facing-skin tear,
approximately 1 inch long. resident is unaware of origin; skin flap intact. Tegaderm applied. will continue to
monitor.
The facility's Wound Assessment Policy dated 3/2021 shows It is the policy of the facility to asses each
wound initially either at the time of admission or at the time the wound is identified. This policy does not
address treatment of wounds.
On 7/31/23 at 12:03 PM, V2 said the facility does not have any wound treatment policies.

Implement gradual dose reductions(GDR) and non-pharmacological interventions, unless contraindicated,
prior to initiating or instead of continuing psychotropic medication; and PRN orders for psychotropic
medications are only used when the medication is necessary and PRN use is limited.
Based on interview and record review the facility failed to ensure a residents as needed psychotropic
medication had a stop date for 1 of 5 residents (R17) reviewed for psychotropic medications in the sample

period, and the duration for the PRN order.

doctor and then waits for the response. V2 was not sure if she had got a response back on the latest
pharmacy recommendations.
The facility's Psychotropic Medication Use Policy dated 9/2022 shows The timeframe for PRN psychotropic
medications, which are not antipsychotic medications, will be limited to 14 days unless a longer timeframe
is deemed appropriate by the attending physician or the prescribing practitioner.
