F 0686 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, record review, facility policy review and interview, the facility failed to develop and implement a comprehensive and individualized pressure ulcer prevention program to prevent and/or promote pressure ulcer healing. The facility failed to ensure pressure-relieving equipment was functioning as intended, failed to ensure nutritional interventions were initiated, and failed to ensure treatments were implemented and maintained as ordered to prevent the development and/or worsening of pressure ulcers for Residents #10, #11, #25, #27, #44, and #58. Actual Harm occurred beginning on 11/19/25 when Resident #10 who was severely cognitively impaired and at high risk for pressure ulcer development with a history of pressure ulcers developed a deep tissue injury (DTI)/unstageable (full thickness tissue loss) pressure ulcer to the thoracic spine (mid-back) as a result of a malfunctioning low air loss (LAL) mattress. Actual Harm occurred on 12/09/25 when Resident #27 who was severely cognitively impaired and at high risk for pressure ulcer development was found to have an unstageable pressure ulcer to the right ischium. The facility failed to provide evidence the resident was being adequately monitored and/or provided necessary intervention to prevent the ulcer from first being found as an unstageable pressure ulcer. This affected six residents (#10, #11, #25, #27, #44, and #58) of 15 residents reviewed for pressure ulcers. The facility census was 72.Findings include:1. Review of Resident #10's medical record revealed the resident was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses including end stage renal disease, chronic congestive heart failure, necrotizing fasciitis, moderate protein calorie malnutrition, dysphasia, dependence on a respiratory ventilator, acute pulmonary edema, tracheostomy status, and pressure ulcer of other site Stage IV (full thickness tissue loss with exposed bone, tendon or muscle. Slough may be present on some parts of the wound bed. Often include undermining and tunneling.) to the coccyx. Residents Affected - Few Note: The nursing home is disputing this citation. Review of the resident's physician orders revealed a diet order for the resident to receive nothing by mouth (NPO). The resident had an order for enteral tube feed with Nepro at 40 milliliters (ml) per hour for 20 hours a day (high-protein nutritional supplement). An order (dated 10/30/25 for a low air loss (LAL) mattress, monitor function inflation every shift.

On 10/16/25 Resident #16 was hospitalized prior to completion of the UA test, and Resident #38 was diagnosed at the hospital with altered mental status, acute UTI, bacteremia (bacteria in the blood) and acute kidney injury and was treated with intravenous (IV) antibiotics for the infection. Resident #38 remained in the hospital for treatment until returning to the facility on [DATE] where IV antibiotics were continued for treatment. This affected one resident (Resident #38) of three residents reviewed for urinary tract infections. The facility census was 72.Review of Resident #38's medical record revealed an admission date of 10/06/25 with diagnoses including need for assistance with personal care, neuromuscular dysfunction of bladder, urinary tract infection, tracheostomy, morbid obesity, ventilator dependence, and type two diabetes.Review of Resident #38's progress notes dated 10/13/25 at 2:18 P.M. by Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #341 revealed the resident reported she believed she had a UTI stating it started a couple of days ago, but this is the worst it felt. Resident #38 complained of frequent urination and burning. The process of obtaining a UA (urine analysis) was explained to the resident by LPN #321 and the Nurse Practitioner (NP #842) and resident agreed to the UA. A new order was obtained for a UA and labs. Resident #38 did ask if they could treat the UTI without obtaining the UA and the NP stated no and again the resident agreed to the UA.Further review of the medical record revealed there was no UA collected on 10/13/25 for Resident #38. Review of Resident #38's physician orders dated October 2025 revealed the order to obtain a UA C&S (culture and sensitivity) was not entered until 10/15/25 at 5:33 P.M. by LPN #341 and not on 10/13/25 when ordered by NP #842.Review of Resident #38's care plan dated 10/14/25 revealed the resident had bowel and bladder incontinence and was at risk for urinary tract infection (UTI).

Resident #38 stated she had been telling the nurse for at least two days about the pain in her bladder before the NP came in to see her. Resident #38 stated she had a history of UTIs and knew what they felt like. She stated she had questions about how they would obtain the UA C&S and was agreeable to it, but the facility staff did not get it right away and waited multiple days to get it. Resident #38 stated she continued to complain of pain, burning and frequent urination the whole time. Resident #38 confirmed the NP saw her twice before she went to the hospital. Resident #38 was upset because she ended up in the hospital and felt if they had gotten the UA C&S when first ordered she would not have ended up in the hospital and would not have been as sick as she was.Two attempts were made on 12/11/25 at 1:45 P.M. and on 12/22/25 at 4:05 P.M. to contact NP #842 with no return calls received.Interview on 12/22/25 at 3:40 P.M. with LPN #341 revealed they confirmed Resident #38 complained of burning and frequent urination on 10/13/25 and that the NP was into see the resident and ordered a UA C&S but did not obtain it and did not enter it into the physician orders.

However, they did not send the UA to the lab due to the resident going out to the hospital for altered mental status and that Resident #38 was admitted for a UTI, acute kidney injury and sepsis. When asked why the facility staff did not obtain the UA C&S when originally ordered on 10/13/25 they could not give a reason.An interview on 12/22/25 at 4:15 P.M. with the Director of Nursing (DON) verified Resident #38 was ordered a UA C&S on 10/13/25 by NP #842 which was not entered as an order nor collected from Resident #38 until 10/15/25. The DON confirmed the urine was collected on 10/15/25 and was to be sent out to the lab for testing on the morning of 10/16/25 but when the lab showed Resident #38 had been sent to the hospital that morning, so the urine was not carried through to the lab.
