F 0687 Provide appropriate foot care. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on record review, resident interview, observation, staff interview, and resident family interview, the facility failed to ensure dependent residents received proper nail care. This affected one (Resident #58) of three residents reviewed for activities of daily living (ADL) care. The facility census was 105 residents. Residents Affected - Few Findings include: Review of the medical record for Resident #58 revealed an admission date of 12/24/22 with diagnoses including chronic congestive heart failure, high blood pressure, osteoarthritis, major depression, gastroesophageal reflux disease, bilateral artificial knee joints, and cataracts. Review of the consent form for Resident #58 dated 09/17/24 revealed the resident had consented to podiatry care. Interview on 09/23/24 at 10:30 A.M with Resident #58 confirmed her representative had asked the facility to have the podiatrist cut her toenails and assess her feet a long time ago, but the resident was unable to remember the specific date of the request. Resident #58 confirmed her nails needed to be trimmed and neither the staff nor the podiatrist had assisted her. Observation on 09/23/24 at 10:45 A.M of Resident #58's feet revealed both feet had very long thick toenails. Resident #58's toes were overlapped, and the toenails were growing and pressing in the overlapped toes. The skin on Resident #58's feet was dry, red and scaly. Interview on 09/23/24 at 11:00 A.M. with State Tested Nursing Assistant (STNA) #110 confirmed Resident #58's toenails were long and thick and needed to be trimmed by a podiatrist. Interview on 09/23/24 at 12:38 P.M. with Resident #58's representative confirmed she had asked the head nurse approximately two months ago to have the podiatrist look at the resident's feet and cut her toenails. Resident #58's daughter stated the facility did not follow-up with her and the podiatrist had not cut the residents toenails or addressed her deformed toes with bunions. Interview on 09/23/24 at 2:34 P.M. with Nursing Unit Manager Licensed Practical Nurse (NUM-LPN) #111 stated the Social Service Director (SSD) had spoken with Resident #58's representative regarding the need for podiatry to evaluate and treat the resident's feet and cut her toenails. NUM-LPN #111 stated the SSD was responsible to ensure the podiatry visit was scheduled. NUM-LPN #111 confirmed she did not speak to Resident #58 or her daughter to follow-up with them regarding the podiatrist or their concern with the care of the resident's feet.
