F 0686
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Residents Affected - Few
Observation on 06/10/24 at 12:37 P.M. revealed OTA #106 applied the heel protectors on Resident #11.
Interview at the time of observation with OTA #106 revealed the resident's family asked about the heel
boots and she verified with his nurse the resident should have them on while in bed. OTA #106 confirmed
the resident's heels had not been floated and the heel protectors were not on while the resident was in bed.
OTA #106 acknowledged Resident #11 had therapy earlier in the day from around 10:00 A.M. to around
11:00 A.M., and staff had gotten him out of bed, so she was unable to answer if the boots had been present
prior to therapy.
Interview on 06/10/24 at 5:12 P.M. with the Director of Nursing (DON) acknowledged she was aware of the
05/23/24 progress note regarding the wound to Resident #11's right great toe, but denied she had been
informed of the wound by LPN #108. The DON shared she was not made aware of a wound until family had
requested it be assessed. The DON verified there was no description or measurements of the right great
toe wound and no further assessment was made of the area until 06/04/24.
Interview on 06/11/24 at 11:11 A.M. with LPN #108, regarding her 05/23/24 progress note about Resident
#11's right toe wound, revealed she believed the area was a crack due to the dryness of his feet, and
believed she measured the area in a risk assessment.
A second interview with the DON on 06/11/24 at 11:34 A.M. verified there was no measurement in the risk
assessment because the wound was identified as a crack.
Review of the facility policy titled, Pressure Ulcer Policy, dated 04/29/16, revealed should a pressure area
develop the wound would be monitored are least weekly and contain the location and staging, size,
drainage, and characteristics, pain if present, and wound bed and surrounding tissue description.
Interventions and monitoring would be implemented to promote healing.
This deficiency represents non-compliance investigated under Complaint Number OH00154544 and
continued non-compliance from the survey exited 05/16/24.
