Honor the resident's right to and the facility must promote and facilitate resident self-determination through
support of resident choice.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
medical record review, resident interview, staff interview, and policy review, the facility failed to ensure a
resident had the right to choose schedules and make choices about showering/ bathing. This affected one
of three residents reviewed for choices (#4). The facility census was 75.
Findings include:
Review of the medical record for Resident #4 revealed an admission date of 06/17/23 and a diagnosis of
fracture of right femur (prior to admission).
Review of a Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment completed 06/23/23 revealed a Brief Interview for
Mental Status score of 13, indicating intact cognition. The MDS further indicated the resident required
extensive assistance from one staff for transfers, walking, locomotion, personal hygiene, and bathing.
Review of the plan of care dated 06/18/23 revealed Resident #4 had an activities of daily living self care
performance deficit related to recent right femur fracture. It stated the resident preferred a shower and
required extensive assistance from staff with bathing.
Review of the task section of the electronic medical record revealed the preference section for bathing type
and times were left blank. Record review did not reveal any evidence of showers/bathing provided since
admission.
Interview with Resident #4 on 07/25/23 at 10:50 A.M. revealed she had received one shower since
admission on [DATE]. She stated she had received a sponge bath every morning but would prefer a shower
every day. She stated she had not been asked her preferences for showering.
Interview with the Director of Nursing on 07/25/23 at 12:41 P.M. revealed staff are supposed to ask
residents upon admission what their preference is for showering/bathing. She confirmed Resident #4's
preference had not been determined prior to 07/25/23. She confirmed Resident #4's medical record did not
contain any shower/bathing records to indicate when and what was provided.
Interview with Registered Nurse #198 on 07/25/23 at 12:20 P.M. revealed staff are supposed to ask
residents upon admission what their preference is for showering/bathing, how often they want it, and what
time of day they prefer for bathing. She confirmed Resident #4 was just asked for her preferences for
showering on 07/25/23.

Review of the facility policy titled Determining Resident's Preferences and Choices (dated 09/04/18)
revealed it was the policy of the facility that a resident's reasonable preferences for everyday living and daily
choices should be honored, when possible. The intent of the policy and procedure was to obtain information
regarding the resident's preferences for his or her daily routine and activities. This is best accomplished
when the information is obtained directly from the resident or through family or significant other, or staff
interviews if the resident cannot report preferences. A resident's preferences should be obtained at the time
the resident moves to the community, or shortly thereafter. The inter-disciplinary care team will incorporate
the results of the resident preferences into the resident's care plan. The results of the resident's preferences
will be maintained in the resident's electronic health record.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** 2. Review of
the medical record for Resident #4 revealed an admission date of 06/17/23 and a diagnosis of fracture of
right femur (prior to admission).
Residents Affected - Few
Review of a Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment completed 06/23/23 revealed a Brief Interview for
Mental Status score of 13, indicating intact cognition. The MDS further indicated the resident required
extensive assistance from one staff for transfers, walking, locomotion, personal hygiene, and bathing.
Review of the plan of care dated 06/18/23 revealed Resident #4 had an activities of daily living self care
performance deficit related to recent right femur fracture. It stated the resident required limited to extensive
assistance from staff with hygiene.
Interview with Resident #4 on 07/25/23 at 10:50 A.M. revealed she needed her nails clipped and filed. She
stated she had only had one shower since admission and nail care was not provided with the shower. She
stated she had nails that were long and jagged.
Observations on 07/25/23 at 10:50 A.M. revealed Resident #4's fingernails to be long and two of them were
jagged on the ends.
Interview with Registered Nurse #198 on 07/25/23 at 12:20 P.M. revealed she did not think that any nail
care provided to residents was documented when provided.
Interview with Licensed Practical Nurse #155 on 07/25/23 at 1:00 P.M. confirmed Resident #4's nails
needed trimmed and filed.
Based on record review, review of the facility's shower schedules, observation, resident interview, staff
interview and policy review, the facility failed to ensure residents who were dependent on staff for personal
care received the assistance they needed with washing their hair and trimming their fingernails. This
affected two residents (#4 and #129) of two residents reviewed for activities of daily living.
Findings include:
1. A review of Resident #129's medical record revealed he was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. His
diagnoses included congestive heart failure, chronic neck/ back pain, and neuropathy.
A review of Resident #129's care plans revealed he had an activities of daily living (ADL's) self care
performance deficit that was initiated on 07/20/23. The care plan interventions indicated he was to have a
bed bath, until cleared to shower, two to three times a week in the afternoon. He required a one to two
person assist with bathing.
A review of Resident #129's Kardex (care information used by the aides to identify the level of care required
by each resident) revealed the resident preferred bed baths (until released to shower). The Kardex
indicated the resident would would ask staff when he wanted a bed bath. Under ADL's, it indicated he was
to have bed baths, until he was cleared to shower, two to three times a week, in the afternoon. It also
identified him as needing a one to two person assist with bathing.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm

Residents Affected - Few
A review of Resident #129's bathing documentation under the task tab of the electronic health record
(EHR) revealed there were not any bathing activities documented as having been provided to the resident
since his admission to the facility on [DATE].
A review of the shower schedule for the rehabilitation unit revealed Resident #129 was listed as being a
bed bath, but did not have any specified days. The schedule indicated the resident would ask when he
wanted a bed bath.
On 07/25/23 at 1:09 P.M., an interview with Resident #129 revealed he was okay with receiving bed baths
until he was cleared to take showers. He indicated he was still too weak to stand to be able to get into the
shower. His only concern with the bed baths he was receiving was that the staff did not wash his hair on the
days he received the complete bed bath. He denied he has had his hair washed since he had been in the
facility (six days ago).
On 07/25/23 at 1:13 P.M., an interview with Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #197 revealed receiving bed
baths was Resident #129's preference. She had not seen him working a whole lot with therapy, so she was
not sure if he was able to get up for a shower or not. Therapy would be the one's to clear him to receive
showers as soon as he was strong enough to safely do so. She was not sure how often the resident was to
receive a complete bed bath, but indicated it should include the washing of his hair. She verified there was
not any documentation under the task tab of the EHR to show any type of bathing activity had occurred for
the resident since his admission on [DATE]. She reported the documentation they did have only included
his morning and evening care when partial bed baths were given each day. She denied they would have
washed his hair as part of those partial bed baths (A.M./P.M. care). She acknowledged it would be better to
have the resident on a set schedule to receive complete bed baths instead of leaving it up to him to ask for
them when he wanted. He may be reluctant to ask staff for assistance or be the type that did not want to be
a bother to them.
On 07/25/23 at 1:22 P.M., an interview with State Tested Nursing Assistant (STNA) #157 revealed that was
the first day she had worked on Resident #129's unit that week, since he had been there. She typically
worked on another unit. She indicated the resident preferred to receive bed baths, but was not sure what
day he was to receive them. They typically had a shower list to go by to know when a resident was
scheduled for a shower. She denied they had a shower scheduled for the rehabilitation unit (where the
resident resided), like they did for the other units, until that day. She indicated the residents come and go on
the rehabilitation unit, so it was difficult to keep a list up to date. They just went by the residents'
preferences. She acknowledged they could have a shower schedule based on room numbers and adjust if
a resident's preference was to receive more than two bathing activities each week. She confirmed they had
wash basins in the shower room that could be used to wash the resident's hair.
On 07/26/23 at 8:15 A.M., a follow up observation of Resident #129 noted him to have freshly washed hair
that was still wet and neatly combed. He was appreciative of having his hair washed and reported he felt
much better since having it done.
A review of the facility's policy on bed baths that originated in 2002 revealed the procedure guide did not
instruct the staff to wash a resident's hair as part of the bathing activity. It only mentioned hair care, in
addition to oral care and nail care, but was not specific to actually washing the resident's hair.

A social service note on 11/04/22 stated there were no communication issues.
Review of a Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment completed 11/07/22 revealed a Brief Interview for
Mental Status (BIMS) score of 15, indicating intact cognition. A MDS on 12/30/22 revealed the resident had
minimal difficulty hearing and did not have hearing aides. A MDS on 06/03/23 revealed a BIMS score of 11,
indicating moderately impaired cognition. It again indicated minimal difficulty with hearing.
Observations during the lunch meal on 07/24/23 at 12:22 P.M. revealed staff to deliver Resident #12's meal
to her room. The resident was having a lot of trouble hearing Nursing Assistant #147 when she was telling
the resident what she was having for lunch, even when adjusting the tone of her voice louder. Nursing
Assistant #147 stated the resident has a lot of trouble hearing and she was not aware of the resident
having any hearing aides.
Observations on 07/26/23 at 7:48 A.M. revealed staff to deliver Resident #12's breakfast tray to her room.
The staff person was walking in a loud voice so that the resident could hear her.
Interview with Resident #12 on 07/26/23 at 8:45 A.M. revealed she felt she had an increase in difficulty
hearing since admission to the facility. She stated she felt she needed her hearing tested to see if she
needed hearing aides.
Interview with Licensed Practical Nurse #196 on 07/26/23 at 8:19 A.M. confirmed Resident #12 was hard of
hearing. She stated she would consider her moderately impaired with hearing. She confirmed you have to
elevate your level of voice for her to hear you.
Interview with Social Service Designee #168 on 07/26/23 at 1:15 P.M. confirmed Resident #12 has difficulty
hearing. She confirmed staff have to adjust their voice level to converse with the resident. She stated the
company they use for hearing evaluations had not been at the facility since August 2022 and were not
coming again until September 2023. She stated the resident's concern with hearing had not been brought
up to her. She stated she would need to contact the resident's daughter to have her seen for a hearing
evaluation.
Based on medical record review, resident interview, staff interview, and policy review, the facility failed to
ensure residents received audiology/optometry services timely when needed. This affected two residents
(#12 and #50) of two residents reviewed for vision/ hearing.
Findings include:
1. Medical record review revealed Resident #50 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses
including diabetes mellitus and vision impairment.
A review of Resident #50's ancillary service consent form dated 05/25/23 revealed the resident consented

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** 3. A review of
Resident #58's medical record revealed she was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Her diagnoses included
Alzheimer's disease, dementia with agitation, unspecified psychosis, major depressive disorder,
restlessness and agitation, peripheral vascular disease, and osteoarthritis.
Residents Affected - Few
A review of Resident #58's care plan, dated 12/28/21 revealed she had a care plan in place for being at risk
for an alteration to skin integrity related to bladder incontinence, impaired cognition, and poor safety
awareness. The goal was for her to have no new areas of skin breakdown. The interventions included skin
inspections, preventative treatments as ordered, keep bony prominences from direct contact, encouraging/
assisting her with turning and repositioning with routine nursing rounds and as needed (PRN) for comfort
as tolerated or as she would allow. Pillows were to be used to maintain positioning.
A review of Resident #58's quarterly pressure ulcer risk assessment dated [DATE] revealed the resident
was assessed as being a high risk for pressure ulcers. Her risk factors included having a very limited
sensory perception, her skin being very moist, being chair fast, having very limited mobility, and a problem
with friction and shearing. The comments in the assessment indicated the resident was a two to one
maximum assist to transfer. Preventative interventions/treatments were indicated to be in place. There were
no additional quarterly pressure ulcer risk assessments completed after the assessment on 01/04/23.
A review of Resident #58's quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE] revealed the
resident had clear speech. She was sometimes able to make herself understood and was sometimes able
to understand others. She had short and long term memory impairment and her cognitive skills for daily
decision making was moderately impaired. She displayed verbal behaviors directed at others and other
behaviors not directed at others. She was not known to reject care during the assessment reference period
of the past seven days. The resident required an extensive assist of two for bed mobility, transfers, and toilet
use. Ambulation did not occur. She was always incontinent of her bowel and bladder and was at risk for
pressure ulcers, but did not have any unhealed pressure ulcers at the time the assessment was completed.
A review of Resident #58's weekly skin assessments revealed the skin inspections were being completed
as per the plan of care through 07/01/23. There was no skin assessment completed on 07/08/23, as it
should have been. The skin assessments skipped from 07/01/23 to 07/15/23. The skin assessments
showed the resident was first noted to have a pink area to her right hip/ bony prominence beginning on
05/20/23. That assessment did not include any measurements of the red area noted to her right hip, nor did
it indicate if the pink area was blanchable or not. There was no indication what the pink area was classified
as as the type indicated on the assessment was other. The skin assessment defined a Stage I pressure
ulcer as intact skin with non-blanchable redness of a localized area usually over a bony prominence. The
assessment indicated they did not recognize the red area as pressure and an ulcer tracking tool was not
initiated. The comments under the assessment indicated the right hip/ bony prominence was noted to be
pinkish with skin intact in the area of her previous right hip surgery. A new order was initiated for Mepilex
(foam dressing) to be applied to the area as a preventative measure.
Weekly skin assessments through 06/10/23 continued to mention the area to the resident's right hip
describing it as a slight pink area each week it was assessed. None of those assessments indicated

A weekly skin assessment dated [DATE] revealed Resident #58 was noted to have a scabbed area to her
right hip. It measured 0.3 centimeters (cm) in length x 0.2 cm in width x 0.1 in depth. The area was
described under type as other and was not identified as a pressure ulcer with any staging indicated.
Subsequent weekly skin assessments completed through 07/15/23 continued to mention the scabbed area
to her right hip classified under type as other with no identification as a pressure ulcer or staging. It
measured 0.9 cm x 0.5 cm with no depth recorded when measured on 07/15/23. It was not until a skin
assessment was done on 07/22/23 that the resident's area to her right hip was assessed as an
Unstageable pressure ulcer (full thickness tissue loss in which the base of the ulcer was covered by slough
(yellow, tan, gray, green, or brown) and/ or eschar (tan, brown, or black) in the wound bed.
A review of Resident #58's nurses' progress notes dated 06/29/23 revealed a nurse's note at 3:33 A.M. that
indicated the resident was noted to have a scabbed area to her right hip that measured 1 cm in
circumference with a dark scab in the center and yellow slough surrounding. The surrounding tissue was
pink to extend the total area to about a 3 cm circle. Scant dark exudate (drainage) was noted on the
existing dressing. The nurse cleansed it with in house wound cleanser, patted it dry, and placed a Mepilex
dressing on it (as was previously ordered as a preventative treatment. The nurses' progress notes did not
provide any documented evidence of the physician or hospice being notified of the deteriorating area to her
right hip, that met the definition of an Unstageable pressure ulcer.
A review of an interdisciplinary team (IDT) note dated 07/13/23 at 2:41 P.M. revealed the IDT met to discuss
Resident #58's fall preventions due to changes in her condition, but did not discuss anything about the
deteriorating wound she had on her right hip that was then an Unstageable pressure ulcer.
The nurses' progress notes were absent for any further documentation pertaining to the area on Resident
#58's right hip until a nurse's note dated 07/22/23 at 8:58 P.M. that indicated during a routine skin
assessment the Mepilex dressing was removed from her right hip. The previous scabbed area was then
noted to be open with slough to wound bed. A treatment was completed as ordered (same treatment
initiated on 05/20/23 as a preventative treatment). A message was left for the hospice nurse to return a call
and, when the call was returned, the hospice nurse was notified. New orders were received at that time for
the resident to avoid lying on her right side. They were to turn her every two hours from her back to her left
side due to the pressure ulcer on her right hip. A new treatment order was given for the pressure ulcer to
her right hip to include the use of a wet to dry dressing daily and PRN until healed. The physician was not
notified of the resident's Unstageable pressure ulcer to her right hip until 07/24/23 at 11:41 A.M. The
progress notes indicated they were awaiting a response, but the response was not documented as having
been received.
A review of Resident #58's ulcer tracking tool for a pressure ulcers revealed an ulcer tracking tool was not
initiated for the resident for any pressure ulcers until 07/22/23. The ulcer tracking tool identified the resident
as having an Unstageable pressure ulcer to the right hip/ trochanter that measured 4 cm by 4 cm. The date
of origin was indicated to be 07/22/23, despite the resident having documentation in her nurses' progress
notes as having a wound to her right hip on 06/29/23 that met the definition of an Unstageable pressure
ulcer. The assessment indicated the resident had a moderate amount of serosanguinous drainage and the
wound bed was covered with white slough.

On 07/24/23 the resident's care plan was updated to reflect she had impaired skin integrity as evidenced by
a pressure ulcer to her right hip. The goal was for her to exhibit slow healing of the pressure ulcer as
exhibited by development of healthy tissue. The interventions included changing the dressing according to
the physician's orders, evaluating the wound daily and monitor it for an intact dressing, signs and symptoms
of infection, progress and/or changes, initiate a skin grid to document the size, color, odor, drainage and
monitor progress weekly and as needed, protein supplementation as per the physician's orders, provide
pressure relief for the affected area, avoid lying on her right side while in bed, and reposition her every two
hours from her back to her left side, while lying in bed.
On 07/27/23 at 10:55 A.M., an interview with STNA #161 revealed Resident #58 had an area to her right
hip that had been there for a month or two. She indicated the resident had a hip replacement and had a
bony prominence that stuck out on her right hip. The right hip had a red area and normally had a dressing
on it. The area was now open and had a different type of dressing on it. She was not sure why the resident
had skin breakdown when preventative measures had been in place.
On 07/27/23 at 11:00 A.M., an interview with LPN #105 revealed the resident had an area to her right hip.
She believed it was classified as a pressure ulcer, but would have to check the medical record to make
sure. She too indicated the resident had a bony prominence on her right hip. When she first started working
there it had a foam padding over it. She did not think the area was classified or staged as a pressure ulcer
when it was first documented as a red area. She was the nurse working on 07/22/23, when the wound to
the right hip was found to have the wound bed covered in white slough. She stated she was the one that
documented that in the nurses' progress notes. She asked the nurse manager to come and look at it
because she was not sure how to document it. It was a 4 cm by 4 cm area at that time. She notified
hospice, but was not present when the hospice nurse called back in. Another nurse that came in at 9:00
P.M. would have been the one to speak with hospice and get the new order for treatment. She was not
aware of there being a wound on the resident's right hip that had a dark scabbed area in the centered with
yellow slough surrounding it as was documented on 06/29/23 in the progress notes. It was not until she
discovered the wound on 07/22/23 that she looked back through the nurses' progress notes and seen that
was documented on 06/29/23. She confirmed it was not until 07/22/23 that they got new orders for the
resident that included an appropriate treatment for an Unstageable pressure ulcer and to turn the resident
every two hours from her back to her left side. She was not sure why breakdown occurred with her previous
skin prevention interventions in place. She was surprised to find the resident's right hip to have that kind of
breakdown in it. She agreed hospice and/ or the resident's physician should have been notified on
06/29/23, when the resident was documented as having a deteriorating skin issue that met the definition of
an Unstageable pressure ulcer. She indicated they would have wanted to get a new treatment order that
was appropriate for that stage of a pressure ulcer and not continue the same treatment that was initially
ordered as a preventative treatment.
On 07/27/23 at 2:15 P.M., an interview with the DON revealed she was not able to find any additional
information pertaining to the resident's pressure ulcer assessments. She did not see evidence of a more
recent pressure ulcer risk assessment being completed after 01/04/23, nor did she find evidence of a
weekly skin assessment being completed on 07/15/23. She confirmed the resident's area to her right hip
was not assessed as a pressure ulcer, until 07/22/23, when it was identified as an Unstageable pressure
ulcer covered with white slough. She did not provide any documented evidence of the redness that was
noted to Resident #58's right hip beginning on 05/20/23 being assessed by a nurse for blanching to rule out
it being a Stage I pressure ulcer at that time. She also confirmed the nurse that documented the area to the
right hip as having had a scabbed center

with yellow slough surrounding it should have contacted the physician for a new treatment instead of
continuing the same preventative treatment that had been previously ordered. She stated the nurse that
documented that was an LPN and was not qualified to assess the staging of pressure ulcers. She
acknowledged there was no evidence of another nurse assessing the area or a new treatment being
initiated until 07/22/23, when the area was again documented in the progress notes and finally being
classified as an Unstageable pressure ulcer. She confirmed the area went from a 1 cm by 1 cm scabbed
area with dark scabbing in the center and yellow slough surrounding it to a 4 cm by 4 cm Unstageable
pressure ulcer with the wound bed being covered with white slough.
A review of the facility's policy on pressure ulcers (revised 04/27/22) revealed a resident who entered the
facility without a pressure ulcers should not develop pressure ulcers, unless the resident's clinical condition
demonstrated that they were unavoidable. The facility was to provide care and services to promote the
prevention of pressure ulcer development and promote healing of pressure ulcers that were present. They
were to identify residents at risk for development of pressure ulcers by utilizing pressure ulcer risk
assessments per the EHR. Those risk assessments were to be completed quarterly. A licensed nurse was
to do a visual head to toe assessment of each resident weekly and document the findings in the EHR.
4. A review of Resident #129's medical record revealed he was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. His
diagnoses included chronic neck/ back pain, chronic kidney disease, and neuropathy.
A review of Resident #129's skin assessment completed upon his admission [DATE] revealed the resident
had a Stage two pressure ulcer (partial thickness loss of dermis presenting as a shallow open ulcer with a
red/ pink wound bed, without slough; may also present as an intact or open/ ruptured serum-filled blister) to
the left inner buttock that measured 2.3 cm x 3 cm x 0.01 cm. The skin assessment indicated he was not
reviewed for a turning and repositioning program.
A review of Resident #129's Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessments revealed his Medicare 5-day MDS
assessment and admission MDS assessment was still in progress.
A review of Resident #129's care plans revealed he had a care plan in place, dated 07/20/23 for being at
risk for an alteration in skin integrity. The goal was for him to not have any new areas of skin breakdown.
The interventions included the need to turn and reposition him every two hours. His care plans also
indicated he had a Stage II pressure ulcer to his left buttock related to immobility, weakness, and
deconditioning. This care plan was also initiated on 07/20/23. The goal was for his pressure ulcer to show
signs of healing. The interventions included administering treatments as ordered and assisting him to
turn/reposition at least every two hours, more often as needed, or requested. The care plan interventions
were reflected on the Kardex (information made available to the aides to identify the resident's care needs/
requirements).
A review of Resident #129's physician's orders (dated 07/19/23) revealed the resident had a treatment
order in place to cleanse the Stage II pressure ulcer to the left inner buttock with soap and water, rinse, pat
dry, and apply an Optifoam dressing. Staff were to complete the dressing change one time a day every
three days and as needed (PRN).
A review of Resident #129's treatment administration record (TAR's) for July 2023 revealed there was no
documented evidence of the resident having his treatment provided to the Stage II pressure ulcer on his left
inner buttocks on 07/23/23.

A review of Resident #129's nurses' progress notes revealed there was no evidence of the resident refusing
any treatments to his pressure ulcer on the left inner buttock or to support why his treatment was not signed
off as having been completed on 07/23/23.
Observations of Resident #129 on multiple occasions between 07/25/23 at 10:09 A.M. and 07/26/23 at 7:05
A.M. noted him to always be in bed in a supine position lying on his back with direct pressure to the Stage II
pressure ulcer to his left inner buttocks. No pillows were being used for positioning and the resident always
had his head of the bed raised and the knee [NAME] on the bed raised putting direct pressure on his
buttocks. He was not observed to be placed in a side lying position during any of the observations made.
On 07/25/23 at 8:22 A.M., an interview with Resident #129 revealed his treatment had only been completed
once by the facility in the seven days he had been at the facility. He reported the treatment that was signed
off on the TAR as having been completed on 07/25/23 was the only treatment he received to the pressure
ulcer he had on his left buttock. He did not recall them doing a treatment on 07/23/23, when no
documentation had been made in the TAR showing it had been. He had denied any of the staff were
coming in and assisting him with turning and repositioning every two hours as per his plan of care. He
denied he had the strength to physically turn himself in bed and would not oppose them coming in and
assisting him with that.
On 07/26/23 at 8:30 A.M., an interview with STNA #203 revealed she had only worked at the facility for
about a month now. She worked on the rehabilitation unit, where Resident #129 resided, and worked there
last Sunday. She was familiar with the resident and thought he would be at risk for pressure ulcers as he did
not get up much or walked around. She only knew of him having a mark on his buttocks that was the result
of sitting on his bedpan on 07/24/23, but denied it was open. She was not aware of him having any other
skin issues, but did not work with him all that often. The resident required an extensive assist with rolling/
turning/ dressing etc. She claimed they did rounds every couple of hours and would ask him if he needed
anything. They pulled him up in bed and repositioned him when in there. When she worked last Sunday,
they placed a pillow behind his back to help shift the weight off his buttocks. She worked Monday, but was
assigned to a different section of the rehabilitation unit. She said she would have helped in his section as
well, but could not explain why he was observed in the same position all day on Monday (07/24/23).
On 07/26/23 at 8:41 A.M., an interview with RN #183 revealed Resident #129 was at risk for pressure
ulcers. She was not sure if he had any existing pressure ulcers and had to check the computer to see if he
had any areas. She initially denied he had any pressure ulcers reporting he only had yeast on his scrotum,
bruising, and blanchable areas to his bilateral buttocks. She was referring to the skin assessment that was
completed on 07/24/23. She then noted that he had a Stage II pressure ulcer to his left inner buttocks. She
was asked what they were doing to treat that area and to promote healing. She indicated they were
performing a treatment to his left inner buttock according to what was included in his physician's orders.
The aides were also turning and repositioning him regularly. She claimed she would check the residents
regularly to ensure they were being turned. She would also remind the aides regularly that the residents
needed turned. She was not sure why a treatment had not been signed off as having been completed on
07/23/23, when due, or why the resident was observed not to have been turned and repositioned the past
couple of days when observations were made.
On 07/26/23 at 8:50 A.M., the DON was informed of concerns with Resident #129 not being turned and
repositioned every two hours as per his plan of care. She was also informed there was no documentation to
support his treatment to the pressure ulcer on his left inner buttocks being completed on

07/23/23 as ordered. She was not able to provide any additional information to explain why the treatment
had not been signed off as having been completed on 07/23/23. She stated she spoke with the RN #183,
who was the nurse that worked on 07/23/23, and the nurse was not able to explain why the treatment was
not documented as having been completed. The nurse did not provide her any indication that it was
completed as ordered. She stated she would also remind the nursing assistants on the need to ensure the
resident was being turned and repositioned. She confirmed he had weakness and needed assistance with
turning and repositioning.
On 07/26/23 at 1:30 P.M., a follow up interview with RN #183 revealed she had been racking her brain to
figure out why she did not document the treatment to the resident's left inner buttock being done on
07/23/23. She reported she was the nurse assigned that day. She recalled she went to do the treatment
and did not note any open area at that time. She stated it would have been difficult to get a dressing in that
area so she just applied moisture barrier cream instead, which was not the ordered treatment. She denied
she had documented such or had updated the physician to get a new treatment order, when she decided
not to provide the treatment as ordered. She acknowledged the TAR showed the treatment was provided to
the resident as ordered on 07/25/23 and there was no evidence it had been healed.
Based on observations, medical record review, staff interview, resident interview, and policy review, the
facility failed to prevent the development of pressure ulcers and failed to provide the necessary treatment
and services to promote healing.
Actual harm occurred to Resident #12, who had impaired mobility and required staff assistance for
activities of daily living, on 06/02/23 when the resident's in-house pressure ulcer deteriorated to a Stage IV
(full-thickness skin and tissue loss with exposed or directly palpable fascia, muscle, tendon, ligament,
cartilage or bone in the ulcer. Slough and/or eschar may be visible on some parts of the wound bed) due to
a lack of proper interventions ( including repositioning and monitoring of wound vac treatment) being
implemented by the facility.
Actual harm occurred to Resident #58 on 06/29/23 when the facility failed to identify, assess, and
implement the appropriate treatment for a pressure ulcer that started as a Stage I (intact skin with a
localized area of non-blanchable erythema (redness) resulting in the ulcer deteriorating to an Unstageable
pressure ulcer (full-thickness skin and tissue loss in which the extent of tissue damage within the ulcer
cannot be confirmed because the wound bed is obscured by slough or eschar).
This affected four residents (#3, #12, #58, and #129) of four residents reviewed for pressure ulcers.
The facility identified 13 residents with pressure ulcers, six of which were facility acquired. The facility
census was 75.
Findings include:
1. Review of the medical record for Resident #12 revealed an admission date of 10/31/22 and diagnoses
including dementia, diabetes, peripheral vascular disease, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
The plan of care dated 11/01/22 stated the resident was at risk for alterations in skin integrity related to
generalized weakness, impaired mobility, and requiring assistance with activities of daily

living. Interventions included encourage/assist to turn and reposition every two hours as tolerated, or will
allow. Use pillow to maintain positioning. A plan of care dated 11/28/22 stated the resident had a current
pressure ulcer to the coccyx. It stated to assess/record/monitor wound healing.
An admission Minimum Data Set (MDS) 3.0 assessment completed 11/07/22 documented a Brief Interview
for Mental Status score (BIMS) of 15, indicating intact cognition. It indicated no pressure ulcers were
present.
An ulcer tracking tool on 02/21/23 identified the resident as having a Stage II (partial-thickness loss of skin
with exposed dermis, presenting as a shallow open ulcer. The wound bed is viable, pink or red, moist, and
may also present as an intact or open/ruptured blister) pressure ulcer on the coccyx measuring 1.2
centimeters (cm) by 0.4 cm by 0.1 cm deep.
The resident began being seen by the wound center on 02/24/23. On 02/24/23 the wound center described
the wound as a Stage III (full-thickness loss of skin, in which subcutaneous fat may be visible in the ulcer
and granulation tissue and epibole (rolled wound edges) are often present) pressure ulcer of the coccyx
measuring 2.1 x 1 x 0.3 cm. The date acquired was listed at 12/24/22. The area was debrided. The wound
center recommended turning the resident every two hours and keep turned on her left and on her right as
much as possible.
On 05/04/23 the pressure ulcer continued as Stage III measuring 0.3 by 0.3 by 0.5 cm. At that time, a PICO
Single use negative pressure wound therapy system was ordered with dressing to be changed weekly. It
stated a PICO education sheet was sent on 05/04/23.
A quarterly MDS 3.0 assessment on 06/02/23 documented a BIMS of 11, indicating moderately impaired
cognition. It indicated the resident required extensive assistance from two staff for bed mobility and toilet
use. It indicated the resident was totally dependent upon staff for transfers and hygiene and was always
incontinent. It indicated the resident had a Stage III pressure ulcer which was not present upon admission.
On 06/02/23 the wound center now described the pressure ulcer as a Stage IV measuring 0.3 by 0.2 by 0.4
cm. and the treatment was changed with the PICO wound therapy system being discontinued.
On 06/23/23 the wound center described the pressure ulcer as a Stage IV measuring 0.3 by 0.4 by 0.2 cm.
The PICO wound therapy system was re-ordered with dressing to be changed weekly.
On 07/18/23 the Stage IV pressure ulcer measured 0.5 by 0.2 by 0.4 cm. with bone visible per the wound
center. The PICO wound therapy system continued with changing weekly and there were continued
recommendations to turn every two hours and keep turned on left and right as much as possible.
However, review of facility ulcer tracking tools revealed on 07/18/23 the facility was still categorizing the
pressure ulcer as a Stage III and had measurements of 0.5 by 0.3 by 0.2 (which did not match the wound

Interview with Nursing Assistant #115 on 07/26/23 at 10:35 A.M. revealed Resident #12 needed staff
assistance with repositioning. She stated the resident was cooperative with turning on 07/25/23 but they
had only used one pillow under her side instead of two, as they were using on 07/26/23. She stated the
resident had asked for two pillows to be used for positioning on 07/26/23.
Interview with Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #196 on 07/26/23 at 10:40 A.M. revealed she did not know
why the resident was not being positioned on her sides instead of just putting a pillow under her with the
resident still appearing to be laying on her back. She stated the resident needed to be turned onto her sides
every two hours.
Observations of Resident #12's PICO wound therapy system on the coccyx on 07/26/23 at 10:20 A.M.
revealed the PICO power pump had no lights on to indicate it was functioning properly and the tubing was
going under the resident with a potential for pressure to be blocked or to cause pressure to the resident's
skin. This was confirmed by LPN #196. She stated that she had not received any training on the PICO
wound therapy system and thought there was an audible alarm to alert staff if it was not working properly.
She stated she did not know how to check for the proper function of the system. She confirmed there was
nothing in place to monitor for the proper functioning of the system. Resident #12 stated, at that time, that
the batteries were probably dead.
Review of instructions for the PICO single use negative pressure wound therapy system revealed it is used
for patients who would benefit from a suction device (negative pressure wound therapy) as it may promote
wound healing via removal of low to moderate levels of exudate and infectious materials. The instructions
stated the system does not contain any audible alerts and has visual indicators to let you know when there
is an issue. It stated dressings should be checked frequently. Instructions stated that a green ok light
flashes if the pump is working correctly. (Green light was not on during observation above). The instructions
stated that if all lights were off, problems could be dead batteries, pump has completed its course of
therapy (contact healthcare professional right away), or the pump is in standby mode (has been paused).
Interview with LPN #196 on 07/26/23 at 10:20 A.M. confirmed that the instructions verified no audible alarm
and not working properly if no lights are on.
Review of the facility policy titled Pressure Ulcer Prevention (dated 06/08/11 and revised 04/27/22) revealed
a resident who enters the facility without pressure ulcers should not develop pressure ulcers unless the
resident's clinical condition demonstrates that they were unavoidable. A licensed nurse will do a visual head
to toe assessment of each resident weekly and document findings. Implement individualized interventions
to attempt to stabilize, reduce, or remove underlying risk factors such as but not limited to: reposition
frequently according to physician order or at resident request.
Interview with the Director of Nursing on 07/26/23 at 11:00 A.M. revealed that since the PICO dressing is
changed weekly at the wound clinic, the measurements on the facility weekly ulcer tracking tools were
obtained from the wound clinic notes. She stated the facility was not routinely observing the wound but this
was not noted on the weekly ulcer tracking tools. She confirmed the facility measurements did not match
the wound clinic measurements on 07/18/23. She stated she completed the ulcer tracking tool on 07/18/23
but copied the measurements from the previous assessment, which were not accurate. She confirmed the
facility was not documenting the wound as a Stage four, even though the

and/or mobility, unless a decline is for a medical reason.
Level of Harm - Actual harm
Residents Affected - Few
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observations, medical record review, staff interview, and policy review, the facility failed to ensure Resident
#3, who had limited range of motion received the appropriate treatment and services to prevent further
decrease in range of motion.
Actual harm occurred on 06/13/22 when Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #196 identified Resident #3's left
dominant hand had a decline in range of motion, the hand was more contracted and the nurse was unable
to use an existing carrot splint as it caused the resident increased pain. The splint was subsequently
discontinued. Prior to the decline there was no evidence staff were routinely providing passive range of
motion for the resident. Following the identified decline, there was no evidence of a timely referral to therapy
and no evidence any other interventions were implemented to attempt to prevent further decline of the left
hand contracture.
This affected one resident (#3) of one resident reviewed for range of motion. The facility census was 75.
Findings include:
Review of the medical record for Resident #3 revealed an admission date of 10/23/18 and diagnoses
including dementia and cerebral vascular accident with left sided weakness.
Review of an occupational therapy evaluation dated 12/21/21 revealed Resident #3 was referred for
evaluation of left hand contracture due to poor staff carryover of passive range of motion and applying
splint. Per staff, resident no longer fits in palmar guard splint and is experiencing decreased skin integrity of
palm due to flexion contracture/rubbing of nails into palm. The plan was for therapy to provide passive
range of motion to the left hand to decrease the contracture and to identify the most appropriate type of
hand splint with a trial of a carrot splint. The goal was improved range of motion in the left hand and to
tolerate a splint for greater than eight hours.
Review of an occupational therapy Discharge summary dated [DATE] revealed the resident had good
participation with passive range of motion, was utilizing the carrot splint with good success and comfort,
and was able to tolerate the splint for greater than eight hours. It was recommended for the splint to
continue with staff applying.
However, review of range of motion restorative program documentation revealed range of motion services
were discontinued on 01/06/22 (two days prior to occupational therapy being discontinued) due to resident
not participating in programs on a routine basis, even though occupational therapy documented the
resident had good participation in passive range of motion on 01/08/22. There was no evidence of any
further range of motion services provided.
A physician's order was obtained on 02/09/22 to encourage the resident to utilize the carrot splint to left
hand daily (one month after occupational therapy was discontinued with recommendation for splint use).
Review of the treatment administration records and nurses notes for May and June 2022 revealed no
evidence of refusal of the carrot splint with it being documented as applied daily. However, review

of a nurses progress note on 06/13/22 at 2:58 P.M. by Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #196 revealed
resident's left hand is more contracted and trying to use the carrot splint causes the resident more pain.
Splint will be discontinued at this time. There was no evidence of a referral to therapy due to the decline and
no evidence that any other interventions were put in place to attempt to prevent further decline of the left
hand contracture. The plan of care was silent to any range of motion services.
A Minimum Data Set (MDS) 3.0 assessment completed 05/28/23 documented a Brief Interview for Mental
Status score of 2, indicating severe cognitive impairment. The assessment identified the resident had upper
extremity impairment on one side and required extensive assistance from two staff with bed mobility and
toileting.
Review of an occupational therapy evaluation dated 07/25/23 revealed Resident #3 was noted with a
significant left hand contracture currently not appropriate for splint option due to severity, will require
intensive passive range of motion prior to splinting. Resident was at risk for losing ability to feed self (left
hand dominant). The strength of the left hand was unable to be determined due to severe pain.
Occupational therapy was to begin 07/25/23 five times per week for four weeks.
Observations on 07/25/23 at 10:10 A.M. revealed Resident #3 to be in bed. Her left hand was contracted
with all of her fingers bent inward towards the palm in a fist. No padding or splinting of the hand was
observed.
Observations on 07/26/23 at 7:13 A.M. revealed Resident #3 (who was left hand dominant) to be feeding
herself in bed with her right hand. Her left hand remained contracted with all of her fingers bent inward
towards the palm in a fist. No padding or splinting of the hand was observed.
Interview with Rehab Director #205 on 07/26/23 at 1:25 P.M. confirmed Resident #3 was re-evaluated by
occupational therapy on 07/25/23 due to her left hand contracture. She confirmed Resident #3 was last
seen by occupational therapy 01/08/22 after being provided with therapy due to poor staff carry over of
passive range of motion and splint use from the last time she had received therapy. She confirmed
Resident #3 was discharged [DATE] with good participation in passive range of motion and use of carrot
splint. She stated after the resident was discharged from occupational therapy, she would have expected
the nursing staff to continue with passive range of motion and use of the carrot splint as she was able to
tolerate it for eight hours. She stated she did not know why the restorative program was discontinued
01/06/22 when therapy documented good participation on 01/08/22. She confirmed a referral was not made
to therapy after the splint was discontinued in June 2022. She confirmed the resident's left hand contracture
had declined and staff would have to start out with a rolled towel until passive range of motion was provided
and the resident was able to utilize a splint again.
Interview with LPN #196 on 07/26/23 at 2:00 P.M. confirmed she discontinued the carrot splint on 06/13/22.
She stated that she felt like she was told by someone to discontinue it as she would not have done it on her
own but does not remember the details of why it was discontinued. She stated she did not know why the
resident was not referred back to therapy when the splint was discontinued since the resident's hand was
more contracted, at that time.
Observations on 07/26/23 at 2:15 P.M. revealed LPN #196 to attempt to put a wash cloth, which was folded
over once, into Resident #3's left hand. LPN #196 tried to open the resident's fingers enough to put the
folded washcloth in between her fingers and the palm of her hand. The resident verbalized oh, as if in pain.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
record review, review of fall investigations, interview, and policy review, the facility failed to ensure Resident
#48 was properly positioned in bed when unattended resulting in an avoidable fall with major injury (hip
fracture).
Actual Harm occurred on 04/04/23 following a fall at 10:40 P.M. when the facility failed to ensure the
resident was properly positioned in bed and left unattended resulting in the resident rolling out of bed and
sustaining a hip fracture.
This affected one resident (#48) of two residents reviewed for accidents.
Findings include:
Record review revealed Resident #48 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with hemiplegia and
hemiparesis following cerebral infarction affecting the left dominant side, tremors, left foot drop, bilateral
hearing loss, diabetes, Foley catheter due to neuromuscular dysfunction of the bladder and chronic kidney
disease.
Review of Resident #48's quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) 3.0 assessment, dated 02/22/23 revealed the
resident required extensive assistance of two person for bed mobility and toileting, and total dependence
for transfers. The resident had limited range of motion on one side of the upper and lower extremity.
Review of Resident #48's plan of care revealed the resident was at risk for falls related to cerebrovascular
accident (CVA). There was no evidence to place something in front of the resident or stand in front of her
when providing peri care and two assists if needed per the interdisciplinary team (IDT) note dated 04/21/23.
Review of Resident #48's nursing note dated 04/04/23 revealed an aide reported to the nurse while
changing the resident she rolled out of bed. The resident stated she just kept right on rolling that she
couldn't stop herself. The resident complained of right hip pain and stated she did hit her head. The resident
was transported to a local hospital; however, it was full, and she was being moved to another local hospital
due to a right hip fracture. The note indicated she would more than likely not need surgery and the fracture
would heal on its own.
Review of Resident #48's hospital note dated 04/04/23 revealed the resident had non-displaced right
femoral neck fracture.
Review of the facility fall investigation dated 04/04/23 revealed State Tested Nursing Assistant (STNA)
#169's statement indicted she had rolled Resident #48 to her side and hit the call light to get the nurse to
apply Zinc on the resident. The statement revealed the STNA waited five to ten minutes and then asked if
she could go get her really quick. When the STNA returned the resident was on the floor. The STNA did not
see or hear the resident hit the floor. The STNA reported the root cause of the fall was she should have had
the resident roll back on to the bed fully. There was no evidence of a second staff member assisting in the
resident's care at the time of the incident.

Nursing Assistant (STNA) had just completed peri care while the resident was lying on her left side holding
to grab bar with right hand to steady herself in position. The STNA stepped to door to summon nurse for
treatment and when she turned the resident was lying on floor on her back. The resident stated she rolled
forward and couldn't stop and that she bumped her head and right hip hurt. Nurse was summoned, resident
stabilized in place, assessed and physician was notified with orders to send to emergency room (ER) for
evaluation. X-ray showed non-displaced right femur fracture, however, ortho felt surgery was not needed
and to treat conservatively. At present the resident was weight bearing as tolerated. The resident has not
been able to ambulate for a very long time as she is afraid, she may fall, is transferred in Hoyer and uses
wheelchair for mobility with staff assist. Resident has diagnoses of left hemiplegia from CVA/muscle
spasms and uses right arm and hand for activities of daily living (ADL's) and holding herself over on side for
peri care. Air mattress to bed for comfort with bolsters for her comfort and states she feels secure with the
bolsters. Staff educated to place something in front of her or stand in front of her when providing peri care
and two assists if needed.
Review of Resident #48's care guide revealed no evidence to place something in front of her or stand in
front of her when providing peri care and two assists if needed per the IDT note dated 04/21/23. The care
guide indicated the resident required extensive assist to total assist with bed mobility and toileting. Bilateral
grab bars on bed to assist with bed mobility. Position with pillows if needed due to tendency to lean to the
left. Use two assists with all transfers with floor staff.
Interview on 07/24/23 at 10:26 A.M. and 07/27/23 at 2:10 P.M., with Resident #48 confirmed she doesn't
have much control of her left side due to a stroke and was not able to control her body and rolled out of bed
fracturing her hip. The resident could not recall many details of the incident, but staff was providing care and
left her on her side, and she rolled out of bed and could not stop herself.
Interview on 07/27/23 at 2:16 P.M. with the Director of Nursing (DON) confirmed the STNA had left
Resident #48 on her side in the bed, which was not a safe position, resulting in the resident rolling out of
bed and fracturing her hip. The STNA should have waited for staff to answer the call light or rolled the
resident back on her back in bed. The plan of care was not updated to reflect the new intervention to have
place something in front of her or stand in front of her when providing peri care and two staff assist if
needed per the IDT note dated 04/21/23.
Review of the facility policy titled Fall Management (dated 01/14/14 and revised 08/18/22) revealed safety
was a priority. The facility's effort was to focus on minimizing fall risk and fall related injuries. New
intervention would be implemented by the unit staff as soon as possible.

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
medical record review, staff interview, and policy review, the facility failed to ensure a resident with
significant weight loss received timely interventions as recommended by the dietetic technician. This
affected one of five residents reviewed for nutrition (#31). The facility census was 75.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
Review of the medical record for Resident #31 revealed an admission date of 12/14/22 and diagnoses
including dementia, dysphagia (difficulty swallowing), Parkinson's disease, and diabetes.
The resident weighed 90.4 pounds upon admission on [DATE].
A Minimum Data Set assessment completed 04/28/23 documented a Brief Interview for Mental Status
score of 9, indicating moderately impaired cognition. It stated the resident was 62 inches tall, weighed 92
pounds, had no weight loss, and required extensive assistance from staff with eating.
The resident had a plan of care in place, revised 07/13/23, which stated the resident had a nutritional
problem or potential nutritional problem related to advanced age, chronic diagnosis, receiving a
restrictive/mechanically altered diet, variable meal intakes, psychoactive medication use, and underweight
status. The goal was to maintain adequate nutritional status as evidenced by meal/supplement intakes
greater than 50 percent and maintaining weight with no significant weight changes. An intervention included
the dietician evaluating and making diet change recommendations.
Record review revealed the resident was receiving a liquid nutritional supplement (Glucerna), eight ounces,
three times daily with good intakes documented. On 06/10/23 Resident #31 weighed 90.6 pounds. On
07/13/23 Resident #31 weighed 84.8 pounds. This represents a 5.8 pound, 6.4% significant weight loss in
one month.
A dietary progress note on 07/13/23 stated the resident weighed 84.8 pounds and had experienced a
significant weight change. The note stated meal intakes were variable with 0-50% consumed at most meals
which remains consistent for the resident. Receives Glucerna 8 ounces three times daily with good intakes
reported. Underweight with Body Mass Index of 15.5. Usual body weight 86-94 pounds. Super cereal with
