F 0686 Provide appropriate pressure ulcer care and prevent new ulcers from developing. Level of Harm - Actual harm Based on medical record review, observation, staff interview, review of facility policy, and review of guidelines from the National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel (NPUAP), the facility failed to adequately assess and monitor a resident's skin which resulted in Actual Harm for Resident #20 who was admitted to the facility without pressure ulcers and developed a stage three pressure ulcer (a full thickness skin break into the subcutaneous tissue which did not go into muscle or bone) to the right ischium which was not identified until it had reached an advanced stage. This affected one (Resident #20) of three residents reviewed for pressure ulcers. The facility census was 113. Residents Affected - Few Findings include: Review of the medical record for Resident #20 revealed an admission date of 02/29/20 with diagnoses including Alzheimer's disease, anemia, atherosclerotic heart disease of coronary artery, and hypertension. Review of the care plan for Resident #20 dated 02/12/24 revealed the resident had potential for skin impairment related to impaired mobility, fragile skin, and incontinence. Interventions included the following: assist as needed with toileting and hygiene, staff to apply barrier cream as needed after incontinent episodes, staff to check skin daily while doing routine care and report changes to the nurse, staff to apply pressure reducing mattress to bed. Review of the pressure ulcer risk assessment for Resident #25 dated 02/25/24 revealed the resident was at moderate risk for the development of pressure ulcers. Review of the quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment for Resident #20 dated 02/27/24 revealed the resident was cognitively impaired and dependent with eating, toileting, bathing, dressing, and transfers. Resident #20 was at risk for the development of pressure ulcers but did not have pressure ulcers. Review of the wound progress note for Resident #20 dated 03/20/24 per Wound Nurse Practitioner (WNP) #70 revealed the resident had developed an in-house acquired stage three pressure ulcer to the right ischium first observed by the staff on 03/19/24 which measured 2.0 centimeters (cm) in length by 2.0 cm in width by 0.8 cm in depth. The wound bed was yellow, pink and red with granulation tissue present and moderate amounts of serous and serosanguineous drainage noted. Treatment recommended was to apply alginate to the wound bed. Review of the physician's orders for Resident #20 revealed an order dated 03/20/24 to cleanse the pressure ulcer to the right ischium with normal saline, pat dry, apply calcium alginate and cover with abdominal pad and retention tape.

F 0686 Level of Harm - Actual harm Residents Affected - Few Observation on 04/17/24 at 11:25 A.M. of wound care for Resident #20 per Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #200 revealed the resident had a quarter-sized pressure ulcer to right ischium with a moderate amount of serous drainage. Interview on 04/17/24 at 3:46 P.M. with Wound Nurse Practitioner (WNP) #70 confirmed she examined Resident #20 on 03/20/24 and determined the resident had a facility-acquired stage III pressure ulcer to the right ischium which was first identified by the staff on 03/19/24. Interview on 04/18/24 at 11:05 A.M. with the Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON) confirmed Resident #20 developed an open area to her right ischium which was first identified by the facility staff on 03/19/24. The wound was first measured and assessed by WNP #70 on 03/20/24 who determined the wound was a stage III pressure ulcer. The ADON confirmed the facility did not complete assessments of the skin to Resident #20's right ischium prior to 03/20/24. Review of the facility policy titled Skin Integrity Team (SIT) - Skin Monitoring Process dated June 2023 revealed the facility team would improve, maintain, and monitor residents' skin integrity with the goal for residents not to develop pressure ulcers unless clinically unavoidable. The nursing assistant should report any new and/or abnormal skin conditions to the nurse. Review of the NPUAP guidelines dated 2014 pages at https://npiap.com/general/custom.asp?page=2014Guidelines revealed facilities should educate health professionals on how to undertake a comprehensive skin assessment that included the techniques for identifying blanching response, localized heat, edema, and induration. Further review of the guidelines revealed ongoing assessment of the skin was necessary in order to detect early signs of pressure damage. Visual assessment for erythema (redness of the skin) was the first component of every skin inspection. Skin redness and tissue edema resulting from capillary occlusion was a response to pressure, especially over bony prominences. Staff should conduct a head-to-toe assessment with particular focus on skin overlying bony prominences including the sacrum, ischial tuberosities, greater trochanters and heels and each time the patient was repositioned was an opportunity to conduct a brief skin assessment. This deficiency represents noncompliance investigated under Complaint Number OH00152496.
