Resident #38's PICC (peripheral inserted central catheter) line dressing as ordered. This affected one

Findings include:
Review of the medical record for Resident #38 revealed an admission date of 03/22/24. Diagnoses included
osteomyelitis of vertebra, discitis, dorsalgia, diabetes mellitus type 2, and chronic kidney disease stage 3.
The admission Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment completed 03/28/24 indicated Resident #38 had no
cognitive impairment.
Observation and interview on 04/17/24 at 8:39 A.M. with Resident #38 complained the facility nurses were
not changing her right arm PICC line dressing as ordered. It had been about two weeks since the last
change and finally it was completed the day prior, 04/16/24. The PICC dressing on Resident #38's right arm
was dated 04/16/24.
Review of Resident #38's physician orders revealed an order dated 03/26/24 to change PICC line dressing
every seven days and an order dated 03/27/24 to change PICC line dressing to right arm as needed (PRN).
Review of Resident #38's Treatment Administration Record (TAR) from 03/22/24 to 04/17/24 revealed the
routine PICC line dressing change was scheduled to begin on 03/28/24 and then be completed every seven
days thereafter. On 03/28/24, Resident #38's PICC line change was documented as not completed due to it
being completed on 03/26/24, again on 04/04/24, it was not completed due to the previous shift, and then
on 04/11/24, it was not completed due to resident care. The PRN order reflected the PICC line dressing
was changed on 04/16/24. There was no documented evidence Resident #38's PICC line dressing was
changed between 03/26/24 and 04/16/24.
Review of the progress notes from March 2024 to April 2024 revealed no documented evidence Resident
#38's PICC line dressing was changed between 03/26/24 and 04/16/24.

documented evidence Resident #38's PICC line dressing was changed between 03/26/24 and 04/16/24,
and confirmed it was not changed every seven days as ordered.
