F 0655 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Create and put into place a plan for meeting the resident's most immediate needs within 48 hours of being admitted Based on observations, interviews with resident and staff and review of clinical records and facility policy, it was determined the facility did not ensure a baseline care plan was developed with interventions to prevent pressure injury or trauma for one resident diagnosed with diabetes of 28 residents reviewed. (Resident R86) Findings include: Review of the facility's policy for Comprehensive Care Planning revised March 2025 states, The facility will develop a comprehensive person centered care plan for each resident that includes measurable goals and timetables to meet the resident's medical, nursing, mental, and psychosocial needs identified in the comprehensive assessment. The policy further states that a baseline care plan will be developed within the first 48 hours of admission to ensure the residents needs are met until the comprehensive care plan is completed. Review of Resident R86's admission Minimum Data Set (MDS- is a standardized assessment tool used to evaluate resident functional status, cognitive abilities, and health conditions to develop care plans for the residents' needs) dated February 26, 2025, assessed the resident as cognitively impaired with fluctuating inattention, and disorganized thinking, bilateral lower extremity impairment, used a wheelchair to ambulate, incontinent of bowl and bladder, depended on staff for toileting and maintaining toileting hygiene, needed substantial assistants for hygiene (able to do less than half the effort), and needed partial or moderate assistance with bed mobility. Resident R86's MDS included diagnoses of a progressive neurological condition, high blood pressure, diabetes mellitus, cerebrovascular accident (CVA, stroke) dementia, malnutrition, Parkinson disease, and Psychotic disorder. The resident's MDS revealed a weight loss of 5% or more in the past month (Nutritional assessment on admission dated February 26, 2025 noted a significant weight loss of 8.5% in the past month, related to the resident not receiving any nutrition for four or more days in the hospital due to a bowel obstruction). The resident's MDS using Braden (a formal assessment tool) and clinical assessment indicated Resident R86's was at risk for developing a pressure ulcer noting no unstageable or unhealed pressure ulcer was found during the assessment. The MDS indicated the skin and ulcer treatments were in place, that include a pressure reducing device for chair and bed, noting there was no turning/repositioning program in place nor any application of dressings to feet were implemented at the time of admission. Continue review of the MDS revealed that the resident was assessed at risk for pressure ulcers. The MDS assessment indicated this care need was addressed in Resident R86's care plan.

Continued review of the MDS revealed the resident had bilateral lower extremity impairment, and used a wheelchair to ambulate. Resident R86 needed substantial assistant for hygiene (able to do less than half the effort) and needed partial or moderate assistance with bed mobility. Review of Resident R86's MDS assessment included diagnoses of a progressive neurological condition, Diabetes Mellitus (failure of the body to produce insulin), Cerebral Vascular Accident (stroke), Dementia (progressive degenerative disease of the brain), malnutrition, and Parkinson Disease (progressive disease of the central nervous system).

The measurements of the wound was 5.x 2.5 cm (unable to determine the depth). Further review of same wound note revealed Resident R86 has a chronic wound which may or may not heal and could worsen due to resident's restricted mobility, thinning skin, reoccurring trauma, non-compliance. Continued review of same wound note revealed an overall prognosis determined to be fair and the overall goal for the wound is prevention of wound decline, offloading heels, and to turn the resident per facility protocol.

F 0684 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few diabetes, limited mobility, poor nutritional intake, and dementia and indicated the resident was at risk for developing pressure ulcers due to those risk factors. Interview conducted with Licensed nurse, Employee E5 on April 10, 2025, at 12:00 p.m. revealed the resident developed a pressure injury from his/her feet hitting the footboard and the need for wearing multi-podus boots in bed. Review of Resident R86's surgical note from wound physician dated April 10, 2025, revealed assessment and plans indicated Resident R86 has a wound on the right heel. The wound debrided today was at the right heel wound there was indication of tissue deterioration requiring ongoing administration and may very well need future debridement. No guarantee for wound healing can be made given the patients' risk factors/diagnoses that alter the state of this wound. The patient is also at risk for the development of a pressure injury as a result of the following risk factors of, poor nutritional intake, dementia, diabetes and limited mobility. The same assessment stated the resident has a chronic wound which may not heel and may worsen because of chronic comorbidities, thinning skin, recurring trauma, restricted mobility, noncompliance, maceration of wound edges and peripheral arterial disease resulting in poor tissue perfusion possible further tissue breakdown. Observation conducted on April 10, 2025, at 12:10 p.m. with Licensed Nurse, Employee E4, revealed Resident R86 laying in bed, barefoot with his feet crossed at the ankles. The resident was not wearing multi-podus boots. Resident R86 stated, I don't wear the boots (multi-podus boots). I bang my feet against the footboard because I slide down from the bed and my feet keep hitting the footboard. Nurse, E4 stated, I see (him/her) slide down from the bed and it causes (him/her) to press (his/her) feet against the footboard. It's the reason why (he/she) has the wound. Resident R86 complained it was painful when the nurse removed the dressing. The wound was covered in a medicated dressing that had purulent drainage (thick, opaque, greenish - brown drainage). Interview conducted with the wound doctor on April 10, 2025, at 2:30 p.m. revealed, the wound was debrided today and he placed the resident on antibiotics because the wound is now infected. The physician stated that it may have started as a diabetic wound but now, from the pressure of [his/her] feet without using proper footwear it has become worse. I spoke to the staff I could not stress enough how important proper footwear is and explained bending [his/her] knees propped with a pillow would prevent the resident from sliding and causing the pressure. Review of nursing note dated April 10, 2025 revealed the resident was ordered Keflex 500 milligrams twice a day for 10 days for right heel wound infection. 28 Pa.
