to provide privacy during wound care to Resident #1. This affected one resident (Resident #1) of one
observed for wound care.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings included:
Review of the medical record revealed Resident #1 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Diagnoses
included respiratory failure, diabetes, pulmonary hypertension, atrial fibrillation, coronary atherosclerosis,
flaccid neuropathic bladder, insomnia, dementia, depression, and congestive heart failure.
Review of the quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE] revealed Resident #1 had

with a foam dressing daily and as needed.
Observation of wound care on 04/09/25 at 10:00 A.M. revealed Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #100
provided wound care to Resident #1 with the assistance of Registered Nurse #102. During the observation,
the staff failed to close the door to the residents room or pull the privacy curtain. The resident was able to

curtain to provide privacy during wound care to Resident #1.
Review of the undated facility policy titled, Privacy, revealed before performing assessments or procedures,
the staff should close the doors or pull the privacy curtains to prevent others from seeing or overhearing,
thereby respecting the residents privacy and dignity.

F 0686
Provide appropriate pressure ulcer care and prevent new ulcers from developing.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observations, review of the medical record, interview with staff, and review of policy and procedure, the
facility failed to maintain infection control during wound care for Resident #1's pressure ulcer. This affected
one resident (Resident #1) of three reviewed for pressure ulcers.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings included:
Review of the medical record revealed Resident #1 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Diagnoses
included respiratory failure, diabetes, pulmonary hypertension, atrial fibrillation, coronary atherosclerosis,
flaccid neuropathic bladder, insomnia, dementia, depression, and congestive heart failure.
Review of the physician's order revealed Resident #1 had an order to cleanse the right heel with normal
saline, apply Santyl ointment to the wound, cover with a foam dressing daily and as needed dated
03/13/25.
Review of the quarterly Minimum Data Set assessment dated [DATE] revealed Resident #1 had moderately
impaired cognition and had a one unstageable pressure ulcer not present on admission.
Observation of wound care on 04/09/25 at 10:00 A.M. revealed Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #100
provided wound care to Resident #1 with the assistance of Registered Nurse #102. LPN #100 did not
sanitize the over-the-bed table prior to placing a paper towel (obtained from the paper towel dispenser in
the room) onto the table, then she placed the dressing supplies on the paper towel. LPN #100 then soaked
the four-by-four gauze in normal saline and laid it on the paper towel. The gauze soaked through the paper
towel onto the unsanitized over-the-bed table below. She removed the old dressing from Resident #1's right
heel. LPN #100 proceeded to pick up the normal saline soaked four-by-four gauze to clean the right heel
wound, when the surveyor intervened. LPN #100 verified at this time the gauze had soaked through, onto
the unsanitized table below, and the four-by-fours were now contaminated.
On 04/09/25 at 10:30 A.M. an interview with LPN #100 confirmed she did not sanitize the over-the-bed
table prior to placing her clean dressing supplies on the table. She further confirmed she placed the normal
saline soaked four-by-four gauze on the paper towel and it soaked through the thin paper towel onto the
unsanitized over-the-bed table below, contaminating the gauze that she had attempted to use for Resident
#1's wound care.
Review of the undated facility policy titled, Dressing Change, revealed the policy was to provide a clean
wound covering to promote healing. All dressings, unless otherwise specified by a physician, were
performed using clean rather than sterile technique.
This deficiency represents non-compliance investigated under Master Complaint Number OH00161663 and
Complaint Number OH00161643.
