Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, staff interview, record review, and policy review, the facility failed to timely identify and treat a resident's skin tear. This affected one (Resident #28) of three residents reviewed for wound care. The facility census was 87. Residents Affected - Few Findings include: Review of the medical record revealed Resident #28 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Diagnoses included non-ischemic myocardial injury, rhabdomyolysis, chronic atrial fibrillation, stage III kidney disease, and chronic systolic heart failure. Review of the most recent Minimum Data Set (MDS) 3.0 assessment dated [DATE] revealed Resident #28 had severely impaired cognition, had no behaviors, did not reject care, and did not wander. Review of the Nursing Comprehensive Evaluation dated 06/20/24 revealed Resident #28 had no skin conditions documented, and there was no data to trigger a baseline care plan for potential skin breakdown. There was no mention Resident #28 had any wound to her left lower leg from 06/20/24 to 06/26/24. During an observation and interview on 06/26/24, Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #187 verified Resident #28 had a dressing on her left lower leg that was dated 06/19/24. LPN #187 stated Resident #28 had been due for a weekly skin assessment on 06/25/24 but it was not completed because it did not flag in the system for the nurse to complete. LPN #187 verified it was documented in the admission assessment completed 06/20/24 that Resident #28 had no skin issues. Observation of the skin tear on Resident #28's left lower leg revealed it measured 2.0 centimeters (cm) in length by 1.0 cm in width. LPN #187 cleansed the wound with normal saline and covered the wound with Xeroform gauze and a Mepilex dressing. Review of the facility policy titled Skin Management dated 05/14/24 revealed all residents were evaluated for skin integrity upon admission, and any resident with impaired skin integrity had appropriate interventions implemented to promote healing including physician's order for treatment, documentation of wound location, measurements, and characteristics, and weekly documentation until the area was resolved.
