boot being too tight. Additionally, the facility failed to complete accurate skin assessments and failed to
ensure recommended interventions were in place for Resident #60. This resulted in actual harm when
Resident #60 was discovered with an in-house acquired DTI to the foot. This affected two (Residents #19

cognitively impaired and was dependent upon staff for Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) including bed
mobility and transfers. Resident #19 was incontinent of urine and admitted to the facility with a DTI.
Review of the Pressure Sore Development Risk assessment dated [DATE] revealed the resident was at
high risk for developing pressure ulcers.
Review of Resident #19's care plan developed on 06/20/22 and revised on 07/13/22 revealed the resident
was at risk for skin breakdown related to decreased mobility, occasional bowel incontinence, admitted with
pressure ulcers, and often refuses to turn/reposition. Interventions included alternating air mattress to bed
initiated on 06/20/22, assist/encourage resident to turn/reposition every two hours and as needed initiated
on 06/20/22, bilateral heel boots as ordered initiated 07/22/22, monitor skin with daily care, report any new
or worsening abnormalities added on 06/20/22, and monitor/document location, size and treatment of skin
injuries, report abnormalities, failure to heal, signs and symptoms of infection, maceration etc. to physician
initiated on 06/20/22.
Review of Resident #19's physician orders dated 07/11/22 revealed an order was obtained for heel boots to
be worn at all times. There was no documentation indicating the resident's skin integrity was assessed
under the heel boots each shift.

Review of the care plan initiated on 05/29/22 revealed Resident #60 was at increased risk for pressure
ulcer development due to decreased bed mobility, bladder incontinence, diabetes mellitus, and pain. The
care plan was updated on 07/27/22 to include off-loading of heels while in bed.
Observation on 08/09/22 at 12:40 P.M. revealed Resident #60 was lying in bed and moved the blankets
slightly to show heel boots were applied. No pillow was observed to be in place to off load the heels as
ordered.
Interview on 08/09/22 at 12:45 P.M. with Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #276 verified there was no pillow
under Resident #60's heels as ordered.
Observation and interview on 08/10/22 at 1:15 P.M. revealed Resident #60 was in bed and reported the
heel was causing less pain than the previous day. Resident #60 was observed to be wearing heel boots
with a pillow under the knees rather than under the heels as ordered. RN #262 verified the pillow was not
placed correctly and was not offloading the heels. RN #262 evaluated Resident #60's left heel wound and
reported the wound appeared to be a DTI and measured approximately 1 cm by 0.9 cm.
Interview on 08/11/22 at 8:57 A.M. with the Director of Nursing (DON) verified Resident #60's DTI was
discovered on 07/17/22 and verified the skin assessment dated [DATE] at 11:45 P.M. and 07/24/22
documented no new skin abnormalities. The DON reported the interdisciplinary team progress note dated
07/18/22 was a late entry documented on 07/24/22. The DON further verified Resident #60's wound was
not evaluated until 07/20/22.

Ensure that a nursing home area is free from accident hazards and provides adequate supervision to
prevent accidents.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, medical record review, staff interview, and review of facility smoking policy, the facility failed to
ensure supervision was provided to a resident assessed as requiring supervision during smoking. This
affected one (Resident #20) of two residents reviewed for smoking. The facility census was 64.
Findings include:
Review of the medical record revealed Resident #20 admitted to the facility on [DATE] with the diagnosis
including, atrial fibrillation, major depression, insomnia, cognitive communication deficit, muscle weakness,
nicotine dependence, hypertension, mitral/aortic valve stenosis, congestive heart failure, occlusion and
stenosis of carotid artery, peripheral vascular disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, benign
prostatic hyperplasia, and tremor.

when smoking.
Review of the late entry physician progress note dated 06/07/22 revealed Resident #20 was only able to
smoke with supervision in a wheelchair.
Review of the care plan dated 06/22/22 revealed Resident #20 smoked with interventions including the
resident will not smoke without supervision, instruct resident about smoking risks and hazards and about
smoking cessation aids that are available, instruct resident about the facility policy on smoking: locations,

outside to supervise the smoking residents, including Resident #20 (who required supervision when
smoking). The closest staff member was Recreation Therapy Director (RTD) #243, who was located inside
the building conducting an activity with additional residents.
Interview on 08/09/22 at 3:29 P.M. with RTD #243 revealed RTD #243 was assigned to monitor residents

required supervision of staff when smoking.
Review of the facility smoking policy updated 04/14/22 revealed smoking restrictions will be noted in the
residents record, smoking privileges will be addressed in a care plan, and a smoking assessment will
determine level of supervision needed for resident to be allowed to smoke.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
medical record review, observation, staff interview, and resident interview, the facility failed to ensure call
lights functioned properly in resident rooms. This affected two residents (#14 and #40) of 64 residents
reviewed for call light functioning. The facility census was 64.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
Review of the medical record for Resident #14 revealed an admission date of 11/30/21 with medical
diagnoses of congestive heart failure, peripheral vascular disease, and gastroesophageal reflux disease.
Review of the quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE] revealed Resident #14 had
impaired cognition and required supervision with setup help only for transfers, walking, and toileting.
Review of the medical record for Resident #40 revealed an admission date of 01/07/21 with medical
diagnoses of Parkinson's disease, long term use of anticoagulants, and cognitive communication deficit.
Review of the quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE] revealed Resident #40 had intact cognition and

of two people for toileting.
Observation on 08/08/22 at approximately 10:10 A.M. revealed Resident #14 and Resident #40 shared a
room. During the observation, Resident #40 requested the surveyor to, push in his call light because it was
not working. The surveyor pressed his call light button, and his roommate's (Resident #14) call light button
and determined they did not function. Resident #40 indicated the box needed to be pushed into the wall. At
the surveyor's request, Housekeeping Aide #220 entered the residents' room and adjusted the call light box
on the wall. At that time, the call light buttons for Resident #14 and Resident #40 became functional.
Observation and interview on 08/08/22 at approximately 3:30 P.M. revealed Resident #14 walking into his
room. Resident #14 reported his call light was not functioning again and he had to walk to the nurse's
station to get his pain medication.
Interview and observation on 08/09/22 at 3:44 P.M. with Maintenance Director (MD) #201 confirmed
Resident #14 and Resident #40's shared call light system was not functioning. MD #201 repositioned the
call light box on the wall and the call light system resumed normal function. MD #201 stated he had not
been told about the non-functioning call light. Further interview revealed staff could report maintenance
needs through the TELS system (the facility's electronic maintenance tracking software) and all staff had
