This affected one (Resident # 20) of three residents reviewed for wound care. The facility census was 87.

The resident was dependent on staff for activities of daily living. Review of the January 2025 physician's orders revealed Resident #20's had an order dated 12/02/24 for a wound dressing for a sacral pressure ulcer. The order called for the wound to be cleansed with normal saline, packed with silver alginate, covered with an absorbent pad, secured with paper tape, and changed daily. Additional instructions in the order included to apply zinc ointment around the sacral pressure ulcer daily. Review of the Treatment Administration Record (TAR) for January 2025 revealed Resident #20's sacral wound care was listed as completed daily as ordered. Review of the weekly wound assessment dated [DATE] revealed Resident #20 had a stage four pressure ulcer(indicating a full thickness wound which can extend into muscle, tendon, ligament, cartilage, or bone) to her sacrum. The assessment indicated the wound was healing. The listed treatment included cleanse the wound, apply silver alginate, cover with an absorbent pad, secure the wound with paper tape, and change daily. The assessment indicated triad cream (a zinc-oxide-based paste which can be applied to wounds to encourage healing or to intact skin to protect skin from irritation) was to be applied to the skin surrounding the wound. Observation on 01/22/25 at 2:41 PM with Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #288 who completed Resident #20's wound care revealed LPN #288 first prepared to change the resident's sacral wound.
