Findings include: Review of the medical record for Resident #53 revealed an admission date of 11/02/23 with medical diagnoses of dementia, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, severe protein calorie malnutrition, and hypertension. Review of the medical record for Resident #53 revealed a quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment, dated 08/08/24, which indicated Resident #53 had severe cognitive impairment and required partial to moderate staff assistance with meals and was dependent upon staff for transfers, bathing, toileting, and dressing.

Further review of physician orders revealed an order dated 05/02/24 to cleanse the sacral wound with wound cleanser, pat dry, apply calcium alginate to the wound bed, and cover with bordered gauze every shift and as needed. Observation on 09/26/24 at approximately 12:00 P.M. of wound care for Resident #53 revealed Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #170 performed hand hygiene and applied gloves.

Continued observation revealed LPN #170 applied calcium alginate to the wound bed and covered the wound with bordered gauze. LPN #170 removed the gloves and performed hand hygiene after wound care was completed. At no time during the treatment did LPN #170 put on a gown.

EBPs employed targeted gown and glove use during high contact resident care activities when contact precautions do not otherwise apply. The policy revealed examples of high-contact resident care activities include wound care and changing of briefs. The deficiency is based on incidental findings discovered during the course of this complaint investigation.
