Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to follow the Wound Care Plan by not implementing effective interventions to prevent further alteration in skin integrity. This failure affected 1 resident (R44) of 3 residents reviewed for wounds in a total sample of 15.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings Include: On 6-25-24 at 8:03 AM, R44 was noted laying on a low air loss mattress with the mattress setting at static. On 6-27-24 at 11:00 AM, R44 was noted laying on a low air loss mattress with mattress set at static and verified with V11 (Assistant Director of Nursing/ADON). On 6-27-24 at 11:00 AM, V11 (ADON) said the low air loss mattress helps with wound healing by alternating pressure relief. V11 said the alternating pressure setting is based on the resident's weight. V11 said static setting is when all chambers are full and there is no alternating pressure relief for the resident. V11 said it is the nurse's responsibility to check the settings on the air mattress. On 6-27-24 at 11:28 AM, V2 (Director of Nursing) said the low air loss mattress can promote wound healing by alternating pressure relief for the resident. V2 said staff will use the static setting when changing position or providing care for a resident. V1 said static setting on the air mattress does not deliver the intended benefit of the air mattress. R44's wound care plan documents: Pressure reducing/relieving mattress and wheel chair (w/c) cushions as needed. Pressure Ulcer Prevention Protocol (no date) documents: Procedure: 4.C. Use of Pressure Reducing Devices, such as pressure reducing mattresses, mattress overlays, w/c cushioning devices, if needed. Manufacturer's Instructions (no date) documents: 2. Therapy Modes: A.
