at 2:45 PM, R17's wound was 2 x 1 cm (centimeters) with slough in the wound bed.
Residents Affected - Few
On 1/17/23 at 10:45 AM, R17 said, They are doing a dressing on my right ankle. R17 was unsure how he
got the pressure sore.
R17's face sheet shows his diagnoses to include type 2 diabetes, muscle wasting, cognitive communication
deficit, difficulty walking, thrombocytopenia, and dementia.
R17's Facility Wound Summery Report shows, a facility acquired pressure ulcer starting on 11/06/22,
measuring 5.2 x 5.3 cm with necrotic tissue in the wound bed. The skin surrounding the wound was dark
purple.
On 1/19/23 at 2:00 PM, V9 RN (Registered Nurse) said, she didn't know how the wound formed, it seemed
to come from out of nowhere.
01/19/23 at 12:26 PM, V3 RN said, pressure ulcers should be found at a stage one or a reddened area, it
should be found before it is an unstageable pressure ulcer.
Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to identify pressure ulcers prior to
becoming advanced stages and failed to cleanse a stage two pressure ulcer in a manner to prevent cross
contamination for two of five residents (R29, R17) reviewed for pressure in the sample of 15. This failure
resulted in R29 waiting for assessment and treatment for an unstageable pressure ulcer. R17??
The findings include:
1. R29's face sheet printed on 1/19/23 showed diagnoses including but not limited to dementia, heart
failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and stage 2 pressure ulcer of buttock.
R29's facility assessment dated [DATE] showed severe cognitive impairment and extensive staff assistance
required for bed mobility, transfers, and dressing. The assessment showed total staff dependence required
for transfers, toilet use and personal hygiene. The facility assessment showed R29 was frequently
incontinent of urine and bowel.
R29's pressure score risk assessment dated [DATE] showed R29 was at risk.

Level of Harm - Actual harm
On 1/17/23 at 10:17 AM, V5 and V6 (CNAs-Certified Nurse Aides) were observed while performing
incontinence care for R29. V5 put on gloves, opened the urine soaked brief, and washed R29's groin area.
V5 and V6 rolled R29 from side to side to remove the wet brief. V5 continued wearing the contaminated
gloves to roll R29 while touching the bed linens and resident's gown. An eraser size open wound was
observed on the right buttock. R29's buttocks and backside were visibly wet with moisture and urine. V6
applied barrier cream to the buttocks and R29 was again rolled from side to side while V5 continued
wearing contaminated gloves. R29's new brief was put on with the buttocks still contaminated from the
urine. V5 and V6 were asked by the surveyor to remove R29's socks for heel observations. A golf ball size,
dark purple-reddish area was present on the right inner heel. V6 stated the discolored area had been there
for a while so they try to keep the heel elevated. V5 and V6 put R29's socks back on, covered him with the
blanket, and exited the room with the heels flat on the bed.
Residents Affected - Few
On 1/17/23 at 11:25 AM and 2:34 PM, R29's heels were flat on the bed.
On 1/18/23 at 8:39 AM and 11:27 AM, R29's heels were flat on the bed.
On 1/19/23 at 8:55 AM, V7 (CNA) stated aides do skin checks during all resident cares. It is a full head to
toe observation on shower days. We watch the buttocks, heels, and other high-pressure points carefully.
Changes need to be reported immediately to stop it from becoming more severe. Incontinent residents are
never left with urine on the skin. It can cause skin breakdown and infection. Dirty gloves are changed before
touching clean areas to stop cross contamination of germs.
On 1/19/23 at 8:20 AM, V4 (Registered Nurse) stated she had done the weekly skin check for R29 just
yesterday (1/18). V4 said there was an opening on his bottom which was being treated with a zinc barrier
cream. V4 said that is the only skin issue R29 has and there was nothing noted on his feet. V4 said the
weekly skin checks are done by the floor nurses. It is a head-to-toe assessment. Any skin issues are
immediately measured, and the doctor is notified for treatment orders. V4 said the CNAs do skin checks
during all daily cares. Any skin changes or new areas found are to be reported immediately to the nurse.
On 1/19/23 at 8:30 AM, V4 and the surveyor went to R29's room. R29 was lying in bed with his heels flat on
the bed. R29's socks were removed and V4 stated, Wow, this is something new. V4 stated she would get
another nurse for a second opinion and to get a tape to measure the wound. V4 and V3 (Registered Nurse)
entered the room. Both nurses assessed and measured R29's right heel. Measurements were recorded by
V4 as 3 centimeters by 3.5 centimeters, purple rusty. V4 stated she wound classify this as an unstageable
pressure ulcer. V3 and V4 stated it was the first time they had knowledge of the pressure ulcer to the heel,
and nothing had been reported prior to today. V3 and V4 said there are no treatment orders or interventions
in place for the unstageable pressure ulcer to the heel. V3 and V4 said the aides should have reported it
right away to prevent it from getting worse.
On 1/19/23 at 10:46 AM, V2 (Director of Nurses) stated gloves should be changed between dirty and clean
areas. Incontinence care involves cleansing both the front and back of residents. Urine left on open
pressure wounds has the potential for infections and further skin breakdown. V2 said any new skin changes
need to be reported immediately so it doesn't get worse. Skin that is dark purple or red and still closed like
a blister is classified as unstageable. Finding wounds at advanced stages have the potential of becoming
infected, residents can become septic, and have increased pain.

Provide appropriate care for residents who are continent or incontinent of bowel/bladder, appropriate
catheter care, and appropriate care to prevent urinary tract infections.
Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to complete a physicians order for UA (urinalysis)
and C&S (culture and sensitivity) in a timely manner.
Residents Affected - Few
This applies to 1 of 3 residents (R45) reviewed for Catheter/UTI.
The findings include:
R45's Face sheet shows her diagnoses to include, UTI (urinary tract infections), cognitive communication
deficit, and dementia.
R45's Progress Notes shows the following time line:
On 12/21/22 at 11:04 AM, the Physician ordered UA and C&S.
On 12/21/22 at 2:54 PM, An attempt to get the necessary urine from the resident failed.
On 12/22/22 at 1:20 PM, An attempt to get the necessary urine from the resident failed.
On 12/22/22 at 9:25 PM, UA obtained and placed in the refrigerator. (This surveyor asked the facility to
provide the results of the UA, and C&S from this specimen but the results could not be found).
On 12/27/22 at 2:48 PM, an attempt to get the necessary urine from the resident failed.
On 12/29/22 at 2:44 PM, an attempt to get the necessary urine from the resident failed.
On 12/30/22 at 1:07 AM, urine sample was obtained via straight catheterization.
On 1/2/23 at 4:04 PM, UA result was sent to the Physician.
On 1/3/23 at 2:53 PM, The facility received Physician orders for R45 to start an antibiotic for a UTI.
On 01/19/23 at 12:28 PM, V3 RN (Registered Nurse) said, she does not know what happened to the first
specimen. V3 said, if the normal laboratory doesn't pick the sample up, then the facility should have sent it
to the (local hospital) lab. V3 said, it's important to do Physician ordered labs as ordered because the labs
could show us what's going on with the resident like infection or chemical imbalances. Delaying the labs
could delay treatment to the resident.
On 01/19/23 at 10:08 AM, V2 DON (Director of Nursing) said, she doesn't know what happened to that
specimen obtained on 12/22/22. V2 said, it was a holiday weekend so maybe our normal lab didn't pick it
up, so it should have been sent to our local hospital lab. V2 could find no results for the specimen drawn on
12/22/22.
R45's 12/30/22 urinalysis shows turbid (cloudy) urine that was positive for nitrates, and leukocytes. The
culture for the same date shows greater than 100,000 colonies/milliliter of Escherichia coli.

Resident Face Sheet, provided by the facility on 1/19/23, showed he had a diagnosis of diabetes mellitus.
R18's Physician Order Report dated 12/19/23-1/19/23 showed he had an order for insulin lispro three times
a day per sliding scale (based on blood sugar levels).
Residents Affected - Some
R258's Resident Face Sheet, provided by the facility on 1/19/23, showed he had a diagnosis of type II
diabetes mellitus. R258's Diabetes care plan showed a goal that his blood sugar will be maintained within
normal limits. The care plan showed Accuchecks (blood sugar levels) as ordered.
R260's Resident Face Sheet, provided by the facility on 1/19/23, showed he had a diagnosis of diabetes
mellitus due to an underlying condition with diabetic nephropathy. R260's Physician Order Report dated
12/19/23-1/19/23 showed an order for Accuchecks twice weekly. R260's Diabetes care plan showed R260's
blood sugar will be maintained within normal limits during this quarter. The care plan showed Accuchecks
as ordered.
On 1/18/23 at 11:07 AM, V10 (Registered Nurse-RN working the Bounce Back Unit of the facility on
1/18/23) obtained a blood sample from the right third digit of R18's right hand to check his blood sugar
levels with a glucometer (a device used to test blood sugar levels). After obtaining the blood sugar level,
V10 walked back down to the medication cart and placed the glucometer inside the top drawer of the
medication cart, directly on top of the other glucometer that was in the medication cart. V10 placed the
container that held the test strips for the glucometer directly on top of the glucometer she used to test R18's
blood sugar levels. V10 did not disinfect the glucometer after obtaining the blood sample from R18. At 12:05
PM, V10 said she should have disinfected the glucometer after using it to prevent the spread of disease
and germs.
On 1/18/23 at 12:16 PM, V2 (Director of Nursing-DON) said the nurses should disinfect the glucometer
after use by wiping the glucometer down with a disinfectant and keeping the glucometer wet per
manufacturer's instructions. V2 said it is important to do this to prevent the spread of bacteria and blood
borne pathogens. V2 was asked to provide the instructions for the disinfectant that should be used to clean
the glucometers after use.
On 1/19/23 V2 provided a container of Micro-Kill One germicidal alcohol wipes, along with a printed copy of
the instructions for use. The instructions showed: Disinfecting: To disinfect hard, non-porous surfaces, use
one or more wipes, as necessary, to thoroughly wet the surface to be treated. Treated surface must remain
visibly wet for one minute to achieve complete disinfection of all pathogens listed on this label.
On 1/19/23, V2 provided a list of residents currently residing on the Bounce Back Unit of the facility that
received Accuchecks to determine their blood sugar levels. The list showed R18, R258 and R260 were the
residents on the unit that received Accuchecks. V2 said the glucometers in the medication cart on that unit
would only be used for the residents on that unit.
The facility's policy and procedure titled Standard Precautions, with a revision date of 08/09, showed 5.
Resident-Care Equipment: a. Handle resident-care equipment soiled with blood, body fluids, secretions,
and excretions in a manner that prevents skin and mucous membrane exposure, contamination of clothing,
and transfer of other infectious agents to other residents and environments. b. Ensure that reusable
equipment is not used for the care of another resident until it has been appropriately

Residents Affected - Some
Based on Observation, Interview, and Record Review the facility failed to cleanse and sanitize hands and
equipment to prevent cross contamination for 4 of 4 residents (R18, R51, R260, and R258) reviewed for
infection control in the sample of 15.
The findings include:
1. R18's Physician order report dated 12/19/22 to 1/19/23 (last admitted on [DATE]) showed, 1/12/23,
Gentamycin in NaCl (sodium chloride) piggyback; 100 mg/100 ml; IV (intravenous); 100 ml/hour; once a
day.
R18's facility assessment dated [DATE] showed that he is cognitively intact (Brief Interview for Mental
Status Score 15) and was on IV medications.
On 01/18/23 at 9:00 AM, V10 (RN-registered nurse) collected her supplies and entered R18's room. V10
did not wash her hands or use hand sanitizer before putting on a pair of gloves. V10 adjusted the clothing of
R18 to be able to access the IV site, re-positioned his arm and changed her gloves without performing any
hand sanitization. V10 withdrew half a milliliter of blood in a syringe, placed it on the bedside table, flushed
the IV line with NSS (normal saline solution) and started the gentamycin infusion. After the procedure, V10
removed her gloves, picked up all of the unused supplies (one syringe of NSS flush) and the contaminated
items (used alcohol swabs, used gloves, syringe with half a milliliter of blood in it) and walked out of R18's
room. V10 went to the medicine cart, pulled open the top drawer, placed the unused syringe of NSS in it,
put her hands in her pocket and then used hand sanitizer for her hands.
2. R51's face sheet provided by the facility on 1/19/23 showed that he was last admitted to the facility on
[DATE] with diagnoses to include post-surgical infection and long-term use of anti-coagulants.

for Mental Status Score 6).
On 1/18/23 at 9:30 AM, V10 was in R51's room, in the process of drawing blood into the pipette to test his
PT/INR. V10 had gloves on. Only a quarter of the pipette was filled. R51's finger was bloody. V10 cleaned
the finger with alcohol swab & placed the blood-stained swab on R51's bed. With the used gloves on, V10
removed the strip from the PT/INR test machine & reinserted the same strip. With the same used gloves on
and with the pipette with blood in her hand, V10 walked up to the door of the room & turned on the light
switch. Then she came back to R51's bedside and placed the pipette on the machine to insert the blood
from the pipette into the machine. V10 said that the machine did not give a reading and that she will repeat
the procedure after some time. V10 removed her used gloves and placed them on R51's bed. V10 did not
clean the machine or wash her hands or use hand sanitizer. V10 placed the machine and the box of strips
