Provide appropriate pressure ulcer care and prevent new ulcers from developing.
Level of Harm - Actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, medical record review, staff interview, and review of a facility policy, the facility failed to ensure
interventions and treatments were implemented for a resident assessed at risk for pressure ulcers to
prevent deterioration of an existing stage four pressure ulcer (full-thickness skin and tissue loss) and the
development of additional pressure ulcers and failed to ensure pressure ulcer treatments were applied as
ordered by the physician. Actual harm occurred to Resident #31 when the facility failed to initiate an
alternative pressure relieving cushion or additional pressure reliving intervention to the resident's
wheelchair after an existing cushion was damaged and removed and treatments were not administered as
ordered. This resulted in Resident #31 developing two stage three in-house acquired pressure ulcers
(full-thickness skin loss) with related worsening and drainage. This affected one (#31) of two sampled
residents reviewed for pressure ulcer prevention and care in a facility census of 61.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
Review of Resident #31's medical record revealed the resident admitted to the facility on [DATE] with
diagnoses including, cervical cord syndrome, paraplegia, traumatic brain injury, type II diabetes mellitus,
poly neuropathy, atrial fibrillation, venous thrombosis and embolism, respiratory failure, chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease, ulcerative pancolitis, and spinal stenosis.
Review of the most current Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE] assessed Resident #31
with intact cognition. The resident was dependent on staff for the completion of activities of daily living
(ADLs) including bed mobility and repositioning. The resident utilized an indwelling catheter and colostomy,
and was assessed at risk for pressure ulcer development with one or more unhealed pressure
ulcers/injuries including a stage three pressure ulcer not present at the time of admission, one stage four
present on admission, and one unstageable pressure injury (obscured full-thickness skin and tissue loss)
present upon admission.
Review of a nursing plan of care initiated on 10/11/21 revealed Resident #31 had actual impairment to skin
integrity related to paraplegia including a stage four pressure ulcer to the right ischium. Interventions
included to follow facility protocols for treatment of the injury; identify and document potential causative
factors and eliminate and resolve where possible; monitor and document the location, size, and treatment
of the skin injury, and report abnormalities, failure to heal, signs or symptoms of infection, or maceration to
the physician; and weekly treatment documentation to include measurement of each area of skin
breakdown with width, length, depth, type of tissue and exudate, and any other notable changes or
observations.
Review of the wound specialist physician evaluation documentation on 05/01/24 revealed a chronic stage
four right ischium pressure ulcer present greater than 761 days. Further review revealed the wound
evaluation description was noted with moderate serous exudate (drainage) and measured 3.3 centimeters
(cm) long by (x) 1.8 cm wide x 1.1 cm deep. The recommended interventions included to off-load the
wound, turn side to side and front to back in bed every one to two hours if able when in bed, lay flat in
wheelchair for one hour every three hours, reposition per facility protocol, and continue application of
specialized cushion (ROHO, pressure-reliving cushion) to the specialized wheelchair.
On 05/02/24 the physician modified a treatment to the right ischium to cleanse Resident #31's wound with
wound cleanser (Vashe), pat dry, apply a collagen sheet, then apply calcium alginate/AG to the

Level of Harm - Actual harm
Review of the pressure risk assessment dated [DATE] Resident #31 was assessed at moderate risk of
pressure ulcer development.
Residents Affected - Few
Review of wound specialist physician evaluation documentation on 07/19/24 noted a chronic stage four
right ischium pressure ulcer. Further review of the wound evaluation description noted moderate serous
exudate and measured 3.0 cm long x 1.9 cm wide x 0.5 cm deep. The recommended interventions included
to off-load the wound, turn side to side and front to back in bed every one to two hours if able when in bed,
lay flat in wheelchair for one hour every three hours, reposition per facility protocol, and continue application
of ROHO cushion to specialized wheelchair. The primary dressing for the wound included the application of
a collagen sheet apply once daily for 30 days, and alginate calcium with silver apply once daily for 30 days.
On 07/31/24 a weekly wound evaluation noted Resident #31's stage four right ischium pressure ulcer was
documented as worsening due to resident non-compliance with wound care and broken ROHO cushion.
The wound description revealed there was moderate serous exudate, and the wound measured 4.2 cm
long x 3.0 wide x 0.7 cm deep. No additional intervention was implemented to replace the broken ROHO
cushion. In addition, two in-house pressure ulcers were discovered. Documentation indicated wound #1,
which was a right buttock stage three pressure ulcer, was noted on 07/30/24 and was described with a
small amount of serous exudate and measured 7.5 cm long x 4.0 cm wide x 0.1 cm deep. Treatment of the
wound included to cleanse with soap and water apply Triad paste every shift and as needed. Wound #2,
which was identified as left ischium moisture associated skin damage (MASD), measured 4.0 cm long x 7.5
cm wide x 0.1 cm deep with no drainage. The same treatment was applied as wound #1.
Review of a wound specialist evaluation dated 07/31/24 noted the physician indicated Resident #31's
custom ROHO cushion was taken to see if a repair could be made. The document continued that the
resident continued to stay in his chair for 14-plus hours per day without getting up to off-load and had
caused a quick breakdown of his skin. Resident #31 was encouraged to get back into bed or at least lay on
his side when he got back into bed. The wound specialist documented the facility will also see if physical
therapy might have a ROHO cushion available to use until they find out what was happening with the
resident's personal ROHO cushion. Resident #31's wound progress was documented as exacerbated due
to patient non-compliant with wound care and broken ROHO cushion. Wound measurement to the right
ishium was 4.2 cm long x 3.0 cm wide x 0.7 cm deep with moderate serous drainage. Recommendations
included to off-load the wound, reposition per facility protocol, and therapy consultation for ROHO cushion
options.
On 08/07/24 the wound specialist documented Resident #31's ROHO cushion was being repaired and his
wounds and skin are breaking down further. The resident's right ischium was assessed with moderate
serous drainage and measured 4.0 cm long x 2.7 cm wide x 1.0 cm deep with a new treatment to apply
Methylene blue foam once daily for 30 days. The right buttock was assessed with moderate serous exudate
and measured 3.5 cm long x 4.5 cm wide x 0.2 cm deep with wound treatment to apply Methylene blue
foam apply once daily for 30 days. The left ischium MASD measured 0.5 cm long x 1.0 cm wide x 0.1 cm
deep with continued application of Triad paste apply twice daily. In addition, a third in-house acquired
wound was discovered to the posterior scrotum described as a stage three pressure wound measuring 2.0
cm long x 5.0 cm wide x 0.1 cm deep with no drainage. Treatment for this wound included application of
Triad paste to be applied twice daily. Review of the medical record lacked documentation of additional
interventions to address pressure relief while the resident was in the wheelchair, or

Observation on 08/12/24 at 10:49 A.M. with State Tested Nurse Aide (STNA) #409 noted Resident #31 in
his room after being transferred with a mechanical lift. Resident #31 was placed in a specialized electric
wheelchair, dressed, and groomed. Interview with Resident #31 at the time of the observation stated he
was waiting on repair of his ROHO cushion for four weeks. STNA #409 stated Resident #31 developed an
open area to his buttock with no treatment applied for two weeks. Observation at that time revealed
Resident #31's wheelchair was noted without a pressure relief cushion to the seat.
On 08/13/24 at 10:38 A.M. observation with STNA #409 and STNA #450, during morning activities of daily
living with Resident #31, noted the resident was positioned to the left side and revealed exposed wounds to
the bilateral ischium, right buttock, and posterior scrotum. There was no dressing or treatment applied to
the wounds and blood-tinge drainage was identified contained in the incontinence brief under the resident.
Interview with STNA #409 at the time of the observation verified no dressing was in place since assuming
care of Resident #31 at 7:00 A.M.
Interview on 08/13/24 at 10:43 A.M. with Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #422 revealed she was unaware
Resident #31 required a dressing application to wounds on the ischium or buttock. LPN #422 indicated she
thought a wound barrier cream was to be applied. Observation at that time revealed LPN #422 proceeded
to obtain dressing treatment supplies following review of Resident #31's medical record and went to
Resident #31's room. Interview with LPN #422 during observation of the resident confirmed no treatment
was applied to the resident's wounds. Further observation revealed LPN #422 cleansed the resident's right
ischium, right buttock, posterior scrotum, and left ischium with wound cleanser (Vashe) and patted them
dry. LPN #422 applied Methylene Blue (Hydrofera Blue) to the wound bed of the bilateral ischium and right
buttock, applied barrier cream to the posterior scrotum and peri-wounds, and covered all of the wounds
with two absorbent dressings (ABD).
Observations on 08/13/24 at 11:00 A.M., 12:20 P.M., 1:03 P.M., 08/14/24 at 12:10 P.M., and 2:00 P.M. noted
Resident #31 seated in the wheelchair without a pressure relieving cushion to the seat.
On 08/14/24 at 6:45 A.M. interview with the Director of Nursing (DON), during a review of the medical
record, confirmed Resident #31 specialized pressure relief cushion (ROHO) to the wheelchair was removed
approximately two weeks ago and no intervention was implemented in place of the cushion. The DON
verified Resident #31 remained in the wheelchair for extended periods and was unable to reposition
himself.
Interview on 08/14/24 at 7:20 A.M. with Wound Specialist Physician (WSP) #503 confirmed Resident #31
had a ROHO cushion in place until a couple weeks ago when the cushion was broken, and no current
intervention was placed in the chair to replace the missing cushion while being repaired. WSP #503 stated
since the cushion had been removed the resident had developed new skin breakdown and deterioration of
an existing wound.

Provide appropriate care for residents who are continent or incontinent of bowel/bladder, appropriate
catheter care, and appropriate care to prevent urinary tract infections.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, medical record review, staff interview, and facility policy review, the facility failed to ensure
timely incontinence care and interventions were provided following an episode of urinary incontinence. This
affected one (#36) of three residents reviewed for urinary tract infections in a facility census of 61.
Findings include:
Review of the medical record noted Resident #36 admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses
including, epilepsy, extended spectrum beta lactamase resistance, type II diabetes mellitus, hypertension,
acute kidney failure, anxiety disorder, hypothyroidism, muscle wasting and atrophy, and dysphagia.
Review of the most current Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE] revealed Resident #36
was assessed with moderately impaired cognition, required partial to moderate assist with activities of daily
living (ADLs) including toileting, and was frequently incontinent of bowel and bladder.
Review of Resident #36's care plan revealed on 09/10/21 a nursing plan of care was revised to address the
resident's risk for alteration in elimination related to being occasionally incontinent of bowel and bladder,
and acute kidney injury. Interventions included to administer medications as ordered, monitor for signs and
symptoms of urinary tract infections (UTIs) including elevated temperature, dysuria, flank pain, hematuria,
foul smelling urine, and report to a physician to seek diagnosis and treatment promptly, monitor for skin
redness and irritation, and provide incontinent care as needed.
Review of an additional nursing plan of care dated 05/05/23 was initiated to address Resident #36's risk for
an ADL self-care performance deficit related to dementia, impaired balance, limited mobility, and pain. The
care plan identified ADL support may fluctuate related to the resident's cognition. Interventions included the
resident required limited assistance by one staff with bathing/showering as necessary, required limited to
extensive assistance by one to two staff to turn and reposition in bed as necessary, required limited
assistance by one staff to dress, required limited assistance by one staff with personal hygiene and oral
care, required skin inspection with care to observe for redness, open areas, scratches, cuts, bruises and
report changes to the nurse, required limited to extensive assistance by one to two staff for toileting, and

chux) bed linen were also saturated with urine with a strong urinary odor. STNA #405 assisted the resident
to the restroom and placed the resident on the toilet. Resident #36 indicated she was done using the
restroom and STNA #405 obtained a clean brief (pull-up) and pair of pants. STNA #405 reminded the
resident to use a portion of toilet tissue to wipe herself and proceeded to assist the resident with placing the
clean brief and pants on. No opportunity was provided to cleanse the resident of the residual urine on the
resident's perineum or buttock. No perineal care was provided.
On 08/15/24 at 6:34 A.M. interview with STNA #405 confirmed Resident #36 was heavily soiled of urine
and was not observed for urinary incontinence during the night shift (10:30 P.M. to 6:30 P.M.). STNA #405
was unaware the resident was incontinent and indicated she thought the resident would take herself to the
restroom when needed. STNA #405 also verified the resident was not cleansed of the soiled urine following
the incontinence episode, and placed into a clean incontinence brief and pants.
Interview with the Director of Nursing (DON) on 08/15/24 at 6:50 A.M. confirmed Resident #36 was
identified as incontinent of bladder and required assistance with incontinence needs, and stated following
an incontinence episode residents are to be thoroughly cleansed of urinary soiling. The DON stated a
resident's bowel and bladder status are assessed on admission and quarterly.
On 08/15/24 at 7:18 A.M. additional interview with the DON revealed the facility lacks a policy of procedure
to assess resident bowel and bladder needs.
Review of the facility perineal care policy, implemented 2022, revealed the facility practice was to provide
perineal care to all incontinence residents during routine bath and as needed in order to promote
cleanliness and comfort, prevent infection to the extent possible, and prevent and assess for skin
breakdown.
