a possible fracture. The on-call physician was notified, and an order was received for a right ankle x-ray.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Review of the progress note dated 10/17/25 at 6:06 A.M. revealed Resident #8 had limited range of motion
to the right foot and ankle, and it was painful to stand.
Residents Affected - Few
Review of the X-ray findings for Resident #8's right ankle dated 10/17/25 revealed an oblique nondisplaced
fracture of the distal fibula.
Review of the emergency room documentation dated 10/17/25 revealed Resident #8 had a fall on 10/15/25
and had not been ambulatory for the past two days, with significant swelling and bruising with tenderness
over the medial malleolus noted to the right ankle. The plan for discharge included orders for a sugar-tong
splint, minimal weight-bearing, and to follow up with orthopedics.
Review of the progress note dated 10/17/25 at 6:22 P.M. revealed Resident #8 returned from emergency
room at 4:30 P.M. with a splint on the right leg. The nurse documented Resident #8 was non-weight bearing
on the right leg and there was a referral to orthopedics dated 10/29/25.
Review of the orthopedic note dated 10/29/25 revealed due to limited mobility, the quality of the images was
suboptimal, making it a challenge to determine if there was an additional fracture in the medical malleolus
bone. A computed tomography (CT) scan of the ankle will be ordered to provide a more comprehensive
view of the bone structure. This would guide the decision on weight-bearing restrictions and whether the
boot could be removed. Resident #8 was to be non-weight bearing in the boot.
Review of the CT scan dated 10/31/25 revealed Resident #8 had a right tri-malleolar ankle fracture which
consisted of three fractures to include the distal fibula, posterior malleolus, and medial malleolus bones.
During an interview on 12/17/25 at 10:26 A.M., Registered Nurse (RN) #120 stated when she came in for
the night shift on 10/16/25, an unknown Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) told her that Resident #8 was
complaining of pain. RN #120 stated she noticed Resident #8 had swelling and bruising to her right ankle,
so she called the on-call physician and received an order for an x-ray. The x-ray was completed on 10/17/25
which revealed an acute fibula fracture to the right ankle. Additionally, RN #120 stated she had not
observed Resident #8 getting up out of bed or walking on her own since the fall on 10/15/25.
During an interview on 12/17/25 at 11:18 A.M., Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #169 stated after the fall,
Resident #8 was fearful and refused to leave her room because her right leg was swollen and painful.
Interview on 12/17/25 at 12:36 P.M. with NP #200 revealed she saw Resident #8 on 10/16/25 because she
had a fall and had some swelling to her legs. NP #200 confirmed Resident #8 had on TED hose at the time
of the examination and stated she looked at Resident #8's forefoot and noted some bruising. Additionally,
NP #200 confirmed she only examined the forefoot and not the ankle visibly as she did not remove the TED
hoses. NP #200 stated Resident #8 did not communicate in a clear way that she was in pain or hurting.
Furthermore, NP #200 stated if she had known that Resident #8 had swelling, bruising and was non-weight
bearing, then she would have ordered an x-ray on 10/16/25 instead of on 10/17/25.

Observation and interview on 12/17/25 at 12:31 P.M. with Resident #8 revealed she was lying in bed.
Resident #8 was asked if she remembered when she fell and she nodded yes. Resident #8 was asked if
her leg hurt when she fell and she nodded yes. Resident #8 was asked if she told the nurse her leg was
hurting right after the fall, and she nodded her head yes while she moaned and pointed to her right leg.
Review of the facility Falls policy dated September 2021 which stated based on previous evaluations and
current data, the staff will identify interventions related to the resident's specific tasks and causes to try to
prevent the resident from falling and to try to minimize complications from falling.
2. Review of the medical record revealed Resident #7 was admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses that included
hypertensive heart disease with heart failure, chronic diastolic congestive heart failure, chronic kidney
disease stage three-B, benign prostatic hyperplasia with lower urinary tract symptoms, obstructive and
reflux uropathy, paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, anemia, and anxiety disorder.
Review of Resident #7's physician orders revealed an order dated 08/28/25 for an indwelling Foley catheter.
Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE] revealed Resident #7 was moderately
cognitively impaired and required substantial to maximal assistance with toileting hygiene and transfers and
was unable to independently manage catheter care, indicating reliance on staff for proper catheter
management.
Review of Resident #7's care plan dated 11/10/25 identified interventions related to the management of an
indwelling Foley catheter, including ensuring proper positioning and securing of the urinary drainage bag to
reduce the risk of infection, catheter tension, and other complications. The care plan also addressed the
resident's extensive functional dependence and need for staff assistance with all catheter-related care.
On 12/16/25 at 10:48 A.M., observation of Resident #7 revealed the resident was in bed with an indwelling
urinary catheter. The urinary drainage bag was observed hung on the bedside adjustable bed rail, rather
than secured on a stationary hook or stand. The drainage bag was positioned on the side of the bed facing
the door and was not covered.
On 12/18/25 at 10:20 A.M., a subsequent observation of Resident #7 revealed the urinary drainage bag
remained hung on the adjustable bed rail and continued to be positioned on the side of the bed facing the
door, without a cover. At the time of this observation, the resident's door was open, increasing the visibility
of the drainage bag from the hallway.
On 12/18/25 at 9:37 A.M., an interviewed the Director of Nursing (DON) confirmed the drainage bag was
hung on the bed rail and stated this placement was not consistent with facility policy. The DON further
confirmed the catheter drainage bag was not properly hung or stored as required. The DON stated the
facility currently had ten residents with indwelling urinary catheters.
Review of the facility's undated catheter care policy required urinary drainage bags to be properly secured,
kept off the bed, positioned below bladder level, and managed in a manner that reduces the risk of
complications, including infection, catheter tension, and contamination.

Provide appropriate pressure ulcer care and prevent new ulcers from developing.
Level of Harm - Actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, medical record review, hospital record review, review of radiological studies, interview, and
policy review, the facility failed to ensure appropriate care, services and interventions were in place to
prevent the development of an avoidable pressure ulcer for Resident #8. Actual Harm occurred on 10/24/25
when Resident #8 developed an avoidable suspected deep tissue injury (DTI) (a severe pressure-related
wound damaging skin and underlying soft tissues, often starting under intact skin as a bruise-like purple or
maroon area, that rapidly deteriorates to reveal significant tissue death-necrosis) to the left heel following a
fall with a fracture to the right fibula, which impaired the resident's mobility and increased her dependence
and need for assistance with activities of daily living (ADL). The wound evolved to an unstageable pressure
ulcer with eschar (a full-thickness skin loss where the wound's true depth is hidden by yellow, tan, gray,
black, or brown tissue-slough and/or eschar, making it impossible to stage until the covering is removed)
which required manual debridement (the removal of damaged tissue or foreign objects from a wound). The
facility also failed to ensure air mattress settings were correct for Resident #7. This affected two residents
(Resident #7 and Resident #8) of four residents reviewed for pressure ulcers. Findings include:1. Review of
Resident #8's medical record revealed an admission date of 09/16/22 with diagnoses including dementia
without behavioral disturbances, anxiety, major depressive disorder, and unspecified intellectual disabilities.
Residents Affected - Few
Review of the care plan for Resident #8 dated 02/11/25 revealed the resident was at risk for impaired skin
integrity related to incontinence and impaired mobility. Interventions including to apply protective barrier
cream after incontinence episodes and as needed (PRN), assist resident with turning and repositioning as
needed, complete Braden Scale (pressure ulcer risk assessment) PRN, complete skin inspection every
seven to ten days and PRN, assist as needed, encourage resident to reposition self if able, if resident
refuses intervention, medication/treatment per physician/NP/PA orders, notify nurse of any new areas of
skin breakdown noted during bathing or daily care (redness, blisters, bruises, discoloration), notify
physician/NP/physician assistant (PA) of new areas of impaired skin integrity, pressure redistribution
mattress to bed, provide a non-irritating surface to reduce friction or shearing forces, and provide
incontinence care PRN.
Resident #8 had care plan for activities of daily living (ADL) initiated on 03/27/25 with a focus on ADL
needs to be met and interventions to include assist with ADLs (i.e. dressing, grooming, personal hygiene,
locomotion, oral care, etc.) as needed. Additionally, a care plan focus of the musculoskeletal status related
to osteoporosis was initiated on 09/11/25 with interventions to include provide assistance with turning and
repositioning as needed and allow ample time to reduce pain.
Review of the quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE] stated Resident #8 used a
walker for mobility and was a partial to moderate assistance for personal hygiene, dressing her upper body,
and for personal care. The assessment noted the resident had no current pressure ulcers but was at risk for
pressure ulcers.
Review of the Braden Scale which scores a patient's risk for pressure ulcers from six (severe risk) to 23 (no
risk), with lower scores indicating higher risk, based on six factors: Sensory Perception, Moisture, Activity,
Mobility, Nutrition, and Friction & Shear. Total scores categorize risk as: 19-23 (No Risk), 15-18 (Mild Risk),
13-14 (Moderate Risk), 10-12 (High Risk), and less than nine (Very High/Severe Risk), guiding preventive
interventions like repositioning, skin care, and nutrition support). The Braden Scale for Resident #8 dated
09/10/25 revealed a score of 17, mild risk.

Procure food from sources approved or considered satisfactory and store, prepare, distribute and serve
food in accordance with professional standards.
Based on observations, interviews, review of facility policy, and review of the United States Department of
Agriculture (USDA) website, the facility failed to store and serve food under sanitary conditions. This had
the potential to affect all 59 residents residing in the facility, who ate food from the kitchen. Findings
Include:1. Observation of the kitchen on 12/15/25 from 8:55 A.M. to 9:14 A.M. revealed in the over the tray
foodservice serving area, there were two dirty exhaust fans with a large amount of a brown and gray fuzzy
substance on them. The white paint on the ceiling over the food serving area was also chipping and bulging
from the ceiling. An interview with [NAME] #117 on 12/15/25 at 9:06 A.M. confirmed the presence of a
brown and gray fuzzy substance on the exhaust fans and the presence of chipping ceiling paint over the
food serving area. An interview with Dietary Director #74 on 12/15/25 at 9:08 A.M. confirmed the presence
of a brown and gray fuzzy substance on the exhaust fans and the presence of chipping ceiling paint over
the food serving area. 2. Observation of the internal temperature on the tray line prior to food service on
12/18/25 at 10:17 A.M. revealed that the plain chicken holding temperature was 130 degrees Fahrenheit.
The holding temperature of the mechanical soft chicken was 153 degrees Fahrenheit. A follow up
observation of the internal temperature on the tray line prior to food service on 12/18/25 at 11:55 A.M.
revealed that the holding internal temperature for the plain chicken was 110 degrees Fahrenheit. The
holding internal temperature for the mechanical soft chicken was 128 degrees Fahrenheit. An interview with
[NAME] #117 on 12/18/25 at 11:55 A.M. confirmed that the holding temperatures for the plain chicken and
mechanical soft chicken were in the temperature danger zone.Review of the September 2021 facility policy
titled, Food Handling, revealed that the temperature danger zone for potentially hazardous foods is 41
degrees to 135 degrees Fahrenheit. Review of the USDA Food and Inspection Service webpage revealed
that leaving food out too long at room temperature can cause bacteria to grow at dangerous levels that can
cause illness. Bacteria grow most rapidly in the range of temperatures between 40 degrees and 140
degrees Fahrenheit. This range of temperatures is called the Danger Zone. Food placed in preheated
steam tables or warming trays should be kept above 140 degrees Fahrenheit.
