respiratory failure, tracheostomy, gastrostomy status, and pneumonia due to pseudomonas on 12/13/24
due to recent hospitalization.
Review of the quarterly Minimum data set (MDS) 3.0 assessment completed 12/31/24 revealed Resident

washcloths and soap, opening linen bags for disposal, and placing towels on a clean surface. However,
upon initiating perineal care, CNA #62 and #80 did not put on gowns.
