Protect each resident from all types of abuse such as physical, mental, sexual abuse, physical punishment,
and neglect by anybody.
Level of Harm - Actual harm
Residents Affected - Few
Based on review of facility policies and clinical records and staff interviews, it was determined that the
facility failed to ensure that residents were free of neglect during care, which resulted in actual harm of
Stage Three (full-thickness skin and tissue loss) pressure ulcer development of the coccyx (small triangular
bone at the base of the spinal column), buttocks, and heel for two of two closed records reviewed for
pressure areas (Residents CR1 and Resident CR2).
Findings include:
Review of a facility policy entitled Identifying Resident Neglect dated 7/22/24, revealed Neglect is defined
as the failure of the facility, its employees or service providers to provide goods and services to a resident
that are necessary to avoid physical pain, mental anguish, or emotional distress. Neglect occurs when the
facility is aware of, or should have been aware of, goods or services that a resident requires but the facility
fails to provide them and this has resulted in (or may result in) physical harm, pain mental anguish or
emotional distress.
Review of a facility policy entitled Prevention of Pressure Ulcer/Injury dated 7/22/24, revealed the facility
would Assess the resident on admission (within eight hours) for existing pressure/injury risk factors. Repeat
the risk assessment weekly and upon any changes in condition. Conduct a comprehensive skin
assessment upon admission, including: Skin integrity - any evidence of existing or developing pressure
ulcers or injuries; Tissue tolerance - the ability of the skin (and supporting structures) to endure the effects
of pressure; and Areas of impaired circulation due to pressure from positioning or medical devices. Inspect
the skin on a daily basis when performing or assisting with personal care or ADLs. Identify any signs of
developing pressure injuries (i.e. nonblanchable erythema). For darkly pigmented skin, inspect for changes
in skin tone, temperature, and consistency. Inspect pressure points (sacrum, heels, buttocks, coccyx,
elbows, ischium, trochanter, etc.); Wash the skin after any episodes of incontinence, using pH balanced
skin cleanser; Moisturize dry skin daily; and Reposition resident as indicated on the care plan.
Resident CR1's clinical record revealed an admission date of 5/08/24, and discharge date of 6/24/24, with
diagnoses that included partial intestinal obstruction (a gastrointestinal condition in which digested material
is prevented from passing normally through the bowel), muscle weakness, unsteadiness on feet, and need
for assistance with personal care.
An admission / readmission Nursing Evaluation completed on 5/08/24, at 4:31 p.m. revealed Resident
CR1's skin color was warm and unremarkable upon assessment with a pressure area noted as 0.02 cm
[centimeter] x 0.02 cm skin tear type - Stage Two (partial thickness loss of dermis presenting as a shallow
open ulcer with a red pink wound bed without slough) - to right buttocks.

indicating Resident CR1 was at a moderate risk for developing pressure ulcers. The assessment further
indicated Resident CR1 was at moderate risk for developing pressure ulcers due to very limited sensory
perception (ability to feel or communicate discomfort), incontinence, limited physical activity - spends
