Provide appropriate pressure ulcer care and prevent new ulcers from developing.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, record review and interview the facility failed to consistently ensure Resident #66's wound
treatment was maintained and Resident #75's dressing to prevent skin breakdown was maintained. This
affected two of three residents reviewed for pressure ulcers. The facility census was 97.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
1. Medical record review revealed Resident #75 was admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses including
nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage, cerebral infarction (stroke), chronic respiratory failure,
neuromuscular dysfunction of bladder, hydrocephalus epilepsy and anemia. Resident #75's physician order
dated 05/11/23 indicated to cleanse Resident #75's sacral wound with normal saline, pat dry, apply 50/50
mix triad and calmoseptine and then cover the wound with a foam dressing once a day for wound care.
Resident #75's Treatment Administration Record (TAR) dated 07/01/23 to 07/31/23 indicated Resident
#75's wound treatment was applied to the sacral area during the night shift hours from 11:00 P.M. to 7:00
A.M. on 07/24/23. Resident #75's plan of care dated 04/25/23 indicated Resident #75 had actual/potential
impairment of skin integrity related to lack of mobility, respiratory failure and muscle weakness.
Interventions on the plan of care included to follow facility protocols for treatment of skin injury.
An observation of Resident #75's sacral wound on 07/25/23 at 4:50 P.M. revealed there was no wound
treatment in place on Resident #75's sacral wound. State Tested Nursing Assistant (STNA) # 102 and
Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #103 entered Resident #75's room to provide incontinence care for
Resident #75. When Resident #75's bed linens were removed Resident #75's incontinence brief was
soaked with urine and leaked on the under pad on Resident #75's bed. When STNA #102 and LPN #103
removed Resident #75's incontinence brief there was no wound treatment present on Resident #75's sacral
area. Resident #75's sacral area had a white colored scarred area with a small reddened center
approximately the size of a 50 cent piece coin.
At the time of the observation on 07/25/23 at 4:50 P.M. both STNA #102 and LPN #103 verified there was
no wound treatment present on Resident #75's sacral/coccyx area.
2. Resident #66 was admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses including osteomyelitis of lumbar vertebra, discitis,
escherichia coli infection, severe protein calorie malnutrition, diabetes mellitus, alcoholic cirrhosis of the
liver with ascites, spinal stenosis, chronic viral hepatitis C, retroperitoneal abscess, neuromuscular
dysfunction of the bladder, high blood pressure, need for assistance with personal care, limitation of
activities due to disability and reduced mobility. Resident #66's wound assessment dated [DATE] indicated
a stage four pressure ulcer was located on the coccyx measuring 4.2 centimeters (cm) long by 3.4 cm wide
by 1.6 cm deep with undermining at the 10 o'clock and 12

o'clock position with yellow slough (dead tissue). The coccyx wound was noted to have an odor. The
assessment indicated the area had worsened due to Resident #66's recent hospitalization. The treatment
on the assessment indicated to cleanse the wound with Vashe wash, pack wound with calcium alginate
rope and cover with a foam dressing once a day and as needed. The assessment indicated Resident #66
should only be out of bed and up to a chair for two hour increments. Resident #66's plan of care dated
04/21/23 indicated Resident #66 had skin impairment noted on admission to the facility. Interventions on
the plan of care indicated to apply wound treatment and maintain wound treatment as ordered by the
physician.
An observation of Resident #66's wound treatment on 07/25/23 at 4:00 P.M. revealed there was no wound
treatment present on Resident #66's sacral/coccyx area covering the stage four pressure ulcer. LPN #104
and STNA #105 assisted Resident #66 to a standing position and removed his incontinence brief. There
was no wound treatment present on Resident #66's sacral wound. Resident #66's sacral wound had a large
dinner plate sized red area with a quarter sized open area on the coccyx with yellow slough present with
exposed bone.
An interview with STNA #105 following the wound treatment on 07/25/23 at 4:05 P.M. verified there was no
wound treatment present on Resident #66's sacral area when Resident #66's incontinence brief was
removed.
An interview with STNA #106 on 07/25/23 at 5:04 P.M. revealed Resident #66 had a large bowel movement
before lunch at approximately 12:00 P.M. and she had provided incontinence care. STNA #106 stated
Resident #66's wound treatment had become soiled and was removed during the incontinence care and
STNA #106 had informed the Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON) of the need to have the wound
treatment reapplied.
An interview with the ADON on 07/26/23 at 1:24 P.M. revealed STNA #106 had informed her on 07/25/23 at
approximately 2:00 P.M. to 2:30 P.M. that Resident #66's wound treatment had become soiled and was
removed during incontinence care and needed reapplied. The ADON stated she informed LPN #107 of the
need to apply the wound treatment and the decision was made to reapply the wound treatment at on
07/25/23 at 4:00 P.M. with the oncoming nurse (LPN #104). The ADON stated she was unaware STNA
#106 had provided Resident #66 incontinence care before lunch at approximately 12:00 P.M. The ADON
agreed Resident #66's wound treatment was not in place from approximately 12:00 P.M. to 4:00 P.M. on
07/25/23 and should have been immediately reapplied due to Resident #66's stage four pressure ulcer with
osteomyelitis (bone infection).
Review of the facility policy and procedure titled Prevention of Pressure Injuries revealed teh policy included
skin care for prevention of pressure ulcers. The interventions included in the skin prevention included:
1. Keep the skin clean and hydrated.
2. Clean promptly after episodes of incontinence.
3. Use a barrier product to protect skin from moisture.
4. Use incontinence products with high absorbency.
5. Do not rub or otherwise cause friction on skin that is at risk of pressure injuries.

Provide and implement an infection prevention and control program.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation and interview the facility failed to maintain infection control standards to prevent potential cross
contamination of germs during Resident #72's and Resident #26's medication administration. This affected
two out of five residents observed for medication administration. The facility census was 97.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
1. Medical record review revealed Resident #72 was admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses including cerebral
vascular disease, hemiplegia, hemiparesis, vascular dementia, pulmonary and heart disease with heart
arrhythmia and anemia. Resident #72's physician order dated 06/08/21 indicated to administer
acetaminophen 650 milligrams (mg) orally every six hours as needed for pain. Resident #72's Medication
Administration Record (MAR) dated 07/01/23 to 07/31/23 revealed on 07/25/23 at 11:18 A.M. Resident #72
had a pain level of 6 out of 10 on a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 indicating extreme pain.
An observation on 07/25/23 at 11:15 A.M. of Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #100 administer Resident #72
acetaminophen 650 mg orally for a complaint of a headache revealed a failure of LPN #100 to wash or
sanitize her hands before dispensing the medication and after completion of the task. LPN #100
approached the medication cart and proceeded to remove the acetaminophen medication without washing
or sanitizing her hands before starting the task. LPN #100 preceded to dispense Resident #72's
acetaminophen in a medication cup and then walked to Resident #72's room and handed the medication
cup to Resident #72. After Resident #72 consumed the medication LPN #100 discarded the empty
medication cup in the trash receptacle and exited the room without washing or sanitizing her hands.
An interview with LPN #100 immediately following the observation on 07/25/23 at 11:20 A.M. verified she
should have washed or sanitized her hands prior to starting the medication administration task and before
exiting Resident #72's room.
A review of the facility policy and procedure titled Handwashing/Hand Hygiene dated 08/2019 indicated the
policy interpretation and implementation steps including the following guidance:

depression. Resident #26's physician order dated 12/27/22 indicated to administer percocet (medication for
