Provide appropriate pressure ulcer care and prevent new ulcers from developing.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, medical record review and facility P&P review, the facility failed to provide the
necessary care and services to prevent the development or worsening of pressure injuries for two of two
sampled residents (Residents 1 and 2).
Residents Affected - Few
* The facility failed to assess Resident 1's skin when readmitted to the facility and failed to develop a care
plan to address Resident 1's coccyx wound.
* The facility failed to revise Resident 2's care plan to address Resident 2's Stage 3 pressure injury and
failed to ensure Resident 2 received his wound treatment with his own wound medication supply.
These failures had the potential for Residents 1 and 2 not to receive the appropriate care and services to
promote healing of the pressure injury.

b. Review of Resident 2's Order Summary Report showed a physician's order dated 9/25/24, to cleanse the
coccyx pressure injury with normal saline, pat dry, apply Santyl ointment (wound treatment medication) and
collagen powder, and cover with a dry dressing daily.
On 10/3/24 at 1111 hours, a wound care treatment observation was conducted with LVN 1. The treatment
cart was observed with two boxes of Santyl medication. LVN 1 was observed writing an open date of
9/25/24, on one of the Santyl boxes. LVN 1 stated she was aware she was supposed to write the date when
she opened the medication. LVN 1 then squeezed a Santyl medication into a plastic medication cup,
prepared the rest of the wound care supplies, and proceeded to do the wound treatment for Resident 2.
After LVN 1 provided the wound treatment to Resident 2, LVN 1 was asked which Santyl medication was
used for Resident 2's wound treatment. LVN 1 verified she used the Santyl medication that she had just
labeled with the date of 9/25/24; however, the Santyl medication label showed Resident A's name on it. LVN
1 verified the Santyl medication she used did not belong to Resident 2. LVN 1 stated each resident had
their own medication. LVN 1 acknowledged the potential of contamination or wrong dosage when a
medication used belongs to another resident.
