**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
review of facility policies and clinical record reviews, as well as staff interviews, it was determined that the
facility failed to provide care and treatment in accordance with professional standards of practice by failing
to follow physician's orders for three of 24 residents reviewed (Residents 17, 32, 56).
Residents Affected - Some
Findings include:
The facility's policy regarding medication administration, dated April 11, 2024, revealed that medications
are administered by licensed nurses, or other staff who are legally authorized to do so in this state, as
ordered by the physician and in accordance with professional standards of practice, in a manner to prevent
contamination or infection.
An annual Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment (a federally-mandated assessment of a resident's abilities
and care needs) for Resident 17, dated February 5, 2025, indicated that the resident was cognitively intact,
required assistance from staff for daily care needs, and had diagnosis that included dementia.
Physician's orders for Resident 17, dated October 17, 2024, indicated that the resident was to have her
wound cleansed with saline and a gauze pad, provide soft debridement, apply Hydrofera Blue Transfer (a
foam dressing used to treat wounds) to the wound, apply Unna boots (compression bandage that treats leg
wounds, ulcers, and swelling) to her bilateral lower extremities, and put a cover sponge or foam dressing
over the foot dorsum (top of foot) after the Unna boot layer every night shift on Tuesday, Thursday, and
Sunday.

and up over her calf to just below the popliteal crest (behind the knee). Offload (reduce pressure on a
painful or sensitive area) the prominent tibial crest (shin bone) and anterior tibialis tendon (tendon attaches muscle to bone, that runs from the front of the shin to the front of the foot) with a dry dressing.
Place a cover sponge or foam pad over the foot dorsum after the Unna layer to add extra compression to
edema (accumulation of excess fluid) every day shift, every Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday.
Physician's orders for Resident 17, dated January 2, 2025, included to cleanse the wound and leg with
sterile saline or wound cleanser with sterile gauze pads. Apply Mepilex transfer (type of dressing used to

treatment to her left lower leg was not completed per physician's orders on October 17, 20, and 25, 2024,
and that the treatment was completed twice in one week on February 3, and 6, 2025, when it should have
been changed only once because the resident was seen in the wound clinic on February 5, 2025.
Residents Affected - Some
A quarterly MDS assessment for Resident 32, dated January 24, 2025, indicated that the resident was
cognitively impaired, required assistance from staff for daily care needs, had diagnosis that included
dementia, and was receiving hospice services.
Physician's orders for Resident 32, dated December 16, 2024, included for the resident to receive a 25
microgram per hour (mcg/hr) Fentanyl patch (skin patch is used to treat severe pain) applied every 72
hours for pain.

were not added to the order and the resident received the medication on from February 14 through 17
without his blood pressure being monitored.
Physician's orders for Resident 56, dated February 17, 2025 revealed that the resident was to receive 5 mg
Midodrine three times per day for low blood pressure and that staff were to hold the medication if the
resident's systolic blood pressure was greater than or equal to 120 or the diastolic blood pressure was
greater than or equal to 70.

Provide care or services that was trauma informed and/or culturally competent.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on review of facility policies and clinical records, as well as staff interview, it was determined that the
facility failed to ensure that residents were assessed and received trauma-informed care to eliminate or
mitigate triggers for residents with the diagnosis of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD - a mental and
behavioral disorder that develops related to a terrifying event) for one of 24 residents reviewed (Resident
52).
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
The facility's policy regarding Trauma Informed Care, dated April 11, 2024, revealed that it is the policy of
the facility to provide care and services which, in addition to meeting professional standards, are delivered
using approaches which are culturally competent, account for experiences and preferences, and address
the needs of trauma survivors by minimizing triggers and/or re-traumatization. The facility will use a
multi-pronged approach to identifying a resident's history of trauma, as well as his or her cultural
preferences. This will include asking the resident about triggers that may be stressors or may prompt recall
of a previous traumatic event, as well as screening and assessment tools such as the Resident
Assessment Instrument (RAI), admission Assessment, the history and physical, the social
history/assessment, and others. The facility will identify triggers which may re-traumatize residents with a
history of trauma. In situations where a trauma survivor is reluctant to share their history, the facility will still
try to identify triggers which may re-traumatize the resident and develop care plan interventions which
minimize or eliminate the effect of the trigger on the resident.
An admission Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment (a mandated assessment of a resident's abilities and
care needs) for Resident 52, dated September 23, 2024, and a quarterly MDS assessment, dated
December 23, 2024, revealed that the resident was usually understood, could understand others, and had
diagnoses that included dementia and PTSD.
Trauma Informed Care Assessments for Resident 52, dated September 23, 2024, and December 23, 2024,
revealed that the resident's comment was I don't know. All of the other questions were left blank.
A Psychogeriatric (a medical specialty that focuses on the mental health of older people) note for Resident
52, dated September 19, 2024, revealed that the resident has a history of depression and PTSD (per
record), as well as a history of crying episodes, anxiety, and nightmares, and has been heard screaming
upon awakening since September 2023. However, there was no documented evidence that the facility
completed the questionnaires for Resident 52 or asked others to identify specific triggers that could
re-traumatize the resident.
Interview with the Infection Preventionist on February 26, 2025, at 12:15 p.m. confirmed that there was no
documented evidence of further attempts to identify specific triggers that could re-traumatize Resident 52.
