appropriate wound care treatment is met and carried out for one (R1) out of 3 residents reviewed for
pressure ulcers in a sample of 9.Findings Include:Section C documents in part BIMS (brief interview of
mental status) of 11 which indicates that R1 is moderate cognitive impaired.On 12/23/2025 at 9:49 AM,
surveyor observed R1 laying down on her bed, in an upright position while watching television. R1 seemed
comfortable, under no pain or distress. R1 is alert and oriented to person. R1 is not alert and oriented to
place and time, and has frequent confusion. Surveyor observed R1 holding the call light with her right hand.
Surveyor observed a catheter bag; it was secured and off the ground. Surveyor observed a wheelchair and
a walker at the bedside. There were no odors present, and the room was clean and free clutter. On
12/23/2025 at 10:01 AM, R1 stated she went to the hospital a few months ago and was told she had
infection. R1, stated she developed the infection while being in the facility. Surveyor asked R1 what type of
infection she developed in the facility, but R1 was unable to recall the name and location of the infection. R1
stated she did not have an infection before coming to this facility. R1 stated she has not had her wound care
done today. On 12/23/2025 at 11:45 AM, surveyor observed the wound doctor and wound nurse going into
R1's room. On 12/23/2025 at12:46 PM, V17 (Wound Nurse) stated she has been working in the facility for 3
years and she is familiar with the R1. V17 stated when she first started caring for R1, she had existing
wounds that had healed, but then she developed the sacral wound while being in the facility. V17 stated R1
requires weekly wound care with the wound care doctor. V17 stated the doctor will assess the wound on a
weekly basis, and depending on the assessment the doctor will either change the wound care order or
leave it as it is. V17 stated the wound care order has not changed, it is still the same for weekly wound care;
apply Santyl ointment to sacrum once a day. V17 stated R1 did not have MRSA in the sacral wound when
she began treatment with her 3 years ago. V17 stated R1 went to the hospital one day for wound care, and
when R1 returned to the facility she had a diagnosis for Methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)
of sacral bone. During record review, surveyor asked what it means when there is an empty square shown
on the treatment administration record (TAR). V17 stated if it is empty that means it was not documented or
it was not done for that day. Surveyor asked V17 what can potentially happen if treatment is not being done
daily, V17 stated the wound will not heal properly.On 12/23/2025 at 1:21 PM, V2 (Director of Nursing/ DON)

MRSA was developed here and was discovered in the hospital.On 12/23/2025 at 2:00 PM, V19 (Infection
Preventionist) stated R1 was sent to the hospital for wound care, and upon return to the facility she was
diagnosed with MRSA in the sacral bone. V19 stated when R1 returned to the facility from the hospital she
