Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm
The order to cleanse sacrum with NS, apply collagen silver, apply calcium alginate and cover with foam dressing every shift was not completed on day shift, 02/16/24. Review of the eMAR notes and nursing progress notes revealed no reason the wound care was not completed on 02/16/24.
Residents Affected - Few Review of the TAR, eMAR, and nursing progress notes from March 2024 revealed the following. • The order to pack sacral wound with Dakins soaked gauze and cover with foam dressing daily was not signed-off as completed on 03/14/24 or 03/15/24. There was no eMAR note or progress note revealing why the treatment was not completed. • Change the wound vac at 125 mmHg continuous pressure to Resident #12's mid back wound every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. This order was not followed as evidenced by the wound vac was not changed on 03/05/24 for reason listed as other/See Nurses Note. Review of the eMAR and nurses progress notes revealed no reason was provided for the wound vac dressing not being changed on this date, which was a Tuesday. • The order to apply a wound vac at 125 mmHg continuous pressure to Resident #12's mid back wound and change Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays was not completed on Thursday, 03/14/24. Review of the eMAR and nursing progress notes revealed no reason given for the wound vac change to be omitted. Interview on 03/27/24 at 2:42 P.M. with Resident #12 revealed that up until the past week or so, he was not always getting his dressings changed like he was supposed to because the nurses told him they were short-staffed and they would get to it later, but sometimes they did not have the time to come back. Interview on 03/28/24 at 1:30 P.M. with the Director of Nursing (DON) indicated there was no ability to confirm whether the ordered wound treatments were performed on the dates they were not signed-off, including the treatments to the sacral wound on 02/01/24, 02/02/24, or 02/06/24, 02/16/24, 03/14/24 and 03/15/24.

Provide appropriate care for residents who are continent or incontinent of bowel/bladder, appropriate catheter care, and appropriate care to prevent urinary tract infections.
Based on observation, interviews, record review, and facility policy review the facility failed to ensure timely and appropriate incontinence care was provided for Resident #36 and Resident #38. This affected two of three residents who were reviewed for incontinence care. The facility census was 48.
Findings include: 1. Review of the Medical Record for Resident #36 revealed an admission date of 12/23/21. Diagnoses included atrial fibrillation, muscle wasting and atrophy, type two diabetes mellitus, moderate protein-calorie malnutrition, adult failure to thrive, and systolic (congestive) heart failure. Review of the quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment completed on 03/08/24 revealed Resident #36 had intact cognition, was dependent for toileting, always incontinent of urine, was at risk for the development of pressure ulcers, and had no skin issues at the time of the assessment. Review of the latest assessment titled CHS Skin assessment weekly/return/ER/LOA, dated 03/21/24, revealed Resident #36 had intact skin. Review of the Care Plan dated 03/08/24 revealed Resident #36 had an alteration in activities of daily living (ADL) performance and participation related to her listed diagnoses. Interventions included providing perineal care with each incontinent episode, providing preventative skin care, and monitoring for any skin breakdown. Review of the toileting hygiene and bladder continence tasks documented in the electronic medical record revealed no record of bladder continence or toileting hygiene on 03/04/24, 03/05/24, 03/09/24, 03/12/24, 03/18/24, 03/19/24, 03/21/24, 03/22/24, or 03/26/24. One instance of bladder continence check and toileting hygiene on 02/29/24, 03/01/24 through 03/03/24, 03/06/24 through 03/08/24, 03/11/24, 03/13/24, 03/14/24, 03/16/24 through 03/20/24, and 03/24/24. Two instances of bladder continence checks and toileting hygiene on 02/28/24, 03/10/24, 03/15/24, 03/23/24, and 03/27/24. Review of the intake and output forms for 02/27/24 revealed no written documentation of urine output or incontinence care for Resident #38 on 02/27/24 or 03/27/24. There were no other paper intake or output forms filled out between 03/01/24 and 03/27/24. Observation on 03/27/24 at 10:30 A.M. of Resident #36 receiving incontinence care from State Tested Nurse Aide (STNA) #148 revealed mild redness and an open area to the left buttock with a scant amount of blood noted on the incontinence brief, as well as on the washcloth, as STNA #148 was cleaning the area. Interview on 03/27/24 at 10:40 A.M. with Resident #36 revealed she was only able to feel she was wet when her brief was overly saturated with urine. Further interview revealed the reddened, open area on her bottom was new and she got open areas occasionally from wearing wet briefs. Resident #36 stated staff typically did not check her for incontinence during the night unless she activated her call light because she felt she was soaked. Resident #36 added that staff sometimes turned her call light off indicating they would return, and then she was left waiting for the next shift to come in and change her. During the interview, Resident #36 also stated whether she got checked and changed

regularly for incontinence during the days shifts depended on which staff were working. She stated some staff just came in to reposition her and never checked to see if she was wet. Interview on 03/27/24 at 10:57 A.M. with STNA #148 confirmed Resident #36 should be checked for incontinence every two hours and changed as needed. She further confirmed the open area on Resident #36's left buttock. During the interview, STNA #148 revealed new skin concerns should be reported to the nurse and documented on the skin sheet, but added she had not been assigned this hall recently and assumed the nurse already knew about the open area on Resident #36's left buttock. Interview on 03/28/24 at 12:32 P.M. with the Director of Nursing (DON) revealed residents who required repositioning and incontinence care should be observed every two hours and checked for incontinence. An additional interview with the DON on 03/28/24 at 2:45 P.M. revealed since the end of February 2024 staff on the East wing documented incontinence care in the electronic medical record except for 03/27/24 and 03/28/24, which were documented on paper intake and output forms and the column under voids and incontinence care was blank for 03/28/24.

Provide enough nursing staff every day to meet the needs of every resident; and have a licensed nurse in charge on each shift. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observations, interviews with staff and residents, record review, policy review, and review of the the the payroll-based journal (PBJ) staffing report, the facility failed to have sufficient staffing to meet the needs of the residents. This affected Residents #12, #36, and #38 and had the potential to affect all residents. The census was 48.
Findings include: 1. Review of the PBJ staffing report from fiscal year (FY) quarter one (10/01/23 through 12/31/23) revealed the facility had a one star staffing rating and excessively low weekend staffing. Observation upon entrance to the facility on [DATE] at 1:51 P.M. revealed no staff members in the hallways or at the nurses' station on the [NAME] wing (skilled unit) and the call light on for room [ROOM NUMBER]. Further observation revealed two housekeepers wheeling their carts down the first hall of the [NAME] wing, but no nursing staff were observed in the [NAME] wing. No nursing staff was observed in the front hall of the [NAME] wing until 2:01 P.M. when they responded to the call light in room [ROOM NUMBER]. Random observations throughout the afternoon on 03/26/24 revealed the nurse assigned to the [NAME] wing and the nurse assigned to the East (LTC - long-term care unit) wing were also passing medications to residents in the Assisted Living section of the facility. Interview on 03/26/24 at 3:35 P.M. with Licensed practical nurse (LPN) #113 revealed she was the nurse assigned to the East wing (LTC), and she was also responsible for half of the Assisted Living (AL) residents in the 300 hall, and the nurse on the [NAME] wing took care of residents on the other half of the AL hall. Further interview revealed there were supposed to be two aides working the East wing, but she often found herself working with only one aide. LPN #113 verbalized difficulty getting work assignments completed due to most of the residents on the unit required two staff to assist with bed mobility, transfers, and assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs). LPN #113 further stated due to a call-off on 03/18/24, a test ready state tested nurse aide (STNA) was the only STNA assigned the East wing independently, although he had not yet completed orientation. Interview on 03/26/24 at 3:40 P.M. with STNA #118 revealed she was concerned about the number of residents requiring the assistance of two staff and mechanical lifts and that it was rare there was another STNA assigned on the unit with her and she often had to pull the nurse away from passing medications to help with care that required two staff. Interview on 03/26/24 at 3:4 5 P.M. with STNA #110 revealed the facility was often short-staffed and there were many residents that required the assistance of two staff for care. STNA #110 further stated even if two STNAs were on duty, the acuity of some of the residents took time away from the ability to assist other residents and answer call lights timely. Interview on 03/26/24 at 5:11 P.M. with Registered Nurse (RN) #138 revealed she was working the East Wing with only one STNA due to a call-off. An additional interview on 03/27/24 at 8:33 A.M. confirmed she was assigned to the East wing, as well as half of the AL.

Review of the list of residents requiring a mechanical lift and/or two-person assistance with transfers revealed 21 of the 48 residents residing in the facility required assistance of two staff for all transfers. 2. Interview on 03/27/24 at 2:42 P.M. with Resident #12 revealed that up until the past week or so, he was not always getting his dressings changed like he was supposed to because the nurses told him they were short-staffed and would get to it later, but sometimes they did not have time to come back. He further stated he didn't think he was getting all his medications like he was supposed to, and he wouldn't know what was missing since it was mixed and went into his feeding tube, but he knows he missed a dose of Methadone and the medication that helped him feel less anxious. During the interview, Resident #12 verbalized he was very scared something bad could happen to him because there was not a lot of staff, and it took a long time to get someone to answer his call light. He stated on 03/25/24 he had his light on for over an hour during day shift because he needed repositioned for comfort, stating the discomfort lasted for a couple hours. Resident #12 stated he feared what could happen if he had a medical emergency and staff did not respond timely. Review of the medical record for Resident #12 revealed an admission date of 01/11/24 with diagnoses including osteomyelitis, muscle wasting and atrophy, dysphagia, pressure ulcer of the sacral region, anxiety disorder, and tracheostomy status.
