Based on the comprehensive assessment of a resident, the facility must ensure that(i) A resident receives care, consistent with professional standards of practice, to prevent pressure ulcers and does not develop pressure ulcers unless the individual's clinical condition demonstrates that they were unavoidable; and (ii) A resident with pressure ulcers receives necessary treatment and services, consistent with professional standards of practice, to promote healing, prevent infection and prevent new ulcers from developing. This REQUIREMENT is not met as evidenced by: Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure one of five residents (Resident 279) did not develop a pressure ulcer (bedsores) when he was positioned on a bedpan for forty-five minutes. This failure resulted in Resident 279 developing pressure ulcers on both buttocks. Findings: On July 22, 2019, at 11:03 a.m., Resident 279 was observed lying in bed and alert. During a concurrent interview with Resident 279, Resident 279 was able to state his full name, the time, the place, and the reason why he was admitted to the facility. Resident 279 stated he was admitted to the facility for rehabilitation after a hip fracture (broken bone).

The facility must ensure that pain management is provided to residents who require such services, consistent with professional standards of practice, the comprehensive person-centered care plan, and the residents' goals and preferences. This REQUIREMENT is not met as evidenced by: Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure pain medication was administered timely when a resident complained of pain for one of four residents reviewed for pain (Resident 3). This failure resulted in Resident 3 experiencing pain for longer than necessary. Findings: On July 22, 2019, Resident 3's record was reviewed. The record indicated Resident 3 was readmitted to the facility on April 19, 2019, with diagnoses including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (a disease of the lungs). On July 23, 2019, at 10:14 a.m., Resident 3 was observed to have facial grimacing and was groaning while lying in bed in her room. During a concurrent interview with Resident 3, Resident 3 stated she had pain. When asked to rate her pain on a scale of zero to ten in which zero was no pain and ten was the worst pain, Resident 3 stated her pain was a "nine." Resident 3 showed the area at her left lower rib cage and stated it was "hard" and "it hurts."
