Findings include:
Review of the medical record revealed Resident #65 was admitted on [DATE]. Diagnoses included surgical
amputation, cognitive communication deficit, acquired absence of below the knee, type two diabetes

Review of the plan of care dated 05/28/24 revealed Resident #65 had pressure ulcer and had potential for
pressure ulcer development related to immobility, incontinence, and disease process. Resident #65 was
admitted on [DATE] with stage III pressure ulcer (Full thickness tissue loss. Subcutaneous fat may be visible
but bone, tendon or muscle is not exposed.) to sacrum. Interventions included to administer medication as
ordered, administer treatments as ordered, and follow policies and protocols for the preventions and
treatment of skin breakdown.
Review of the physician order dated 06/18/24 for Resident #65 revealed an order to cleanse sacrum with

Observations on 06/24/24 from 12:07 P.M. through 12:25 P.M. revealed State Tested Nursing Aide (STNA)

Resident #65 had a dressing on his coccyx that was covered with feces. LPN #229 took off old dressing off
and threw it away. STNA #239 had asked LPN #204 to come in Resident #65's room while receiving
incontinence care. LPN #204 who was Resident #65's nurse for the day, had directed LPN #229 to perform
the treatment on Resident #65's coccyx. LPN #204 directed LPN #229 to cleanse the coccyx area, then
apply triad and leave open to air. LPN #204 handed STNA #239 the wound treatment supplies. STNA #239
then cleansed Resident #65 coccyx with wash cloth with soap and water. STNA #239 then patted dry the
coccyx with a dry towel. LPN #229 took a dressing and applied triad on dressing and applied directly to
Resident #65's coccyx.
Interview on 06/24/24 at 12:45 P.M. with STNA #239 confirmed that she did wash Resident #65's coccyx
with a washcloth and soap and water only.
