dependent on staff for positioning and repositioning in bed. FM 1 stated Resident 31 had arthritis which
caused her a lot of pain. FM 1 stated Resident 31 would usually lay on her left side because it was less
painful for her. FM 1 stated Resident 31 had sores and redness on her left ear, left outer ankle, left outer
foot, and right inner foot.

diagnoses included, OTHER ABNORMALITIES OF GAIT [manner of walking] AND MOBILITY . MUSCLE
WEAKNESS . DEAF NONSPEAKING . RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS [body's immune system attacks the

(SSD) 1 and SSD 2, Resident 31's Medical Record (MR) was reviewed. SSD 1 stated she was unable to
find any documentation indicating any pressure injuries (PI) or skin issues.

(LVN) 1, in Resident 31's room, LVN 1 stated Resident 31 did not have any PIs or skin issues. LVN 1 used a
white board to ask Resident 31 for permission to assess her skin and Resident 31 agreed to the
assessment. LVN 1 examined Resident 31's left ear which had a permanent inward bend of the helix
(curved part of outer ear). Inside the left helix was an open red and draining wound the size of a pencil
eraser. LVN 1 touched the area with a tissue and Resident 31, who was non-verbal, pulled away and cried
out in pain. LVN 1 then assessed Resident 31's feet. Resident 31 had a red nickel-sized area on her outer
left ankle, which was partly covered in a scab, a dime-sized red area on the left outer area of the left foot
near the small toe, and a red dime-sized area on the inner right foot near the big toe. Resident 31 wrote on
her communication board that she had skin issues on her ear and feet for two months. LVN 1 stated
certified nursing assistants (CNA) are supposed to report any resident skin issues noted during baths or
showers. LVN 1 stated LVNs assess for any skin changes when weekly head-to-toe physical evaluations
are completed.
During an interview on 5/14/25 at 4:42 p.m. with Director of Nursing (DON), DON stated LVNs are expected
to complete a weekly head-to-toe assessment of each resident and document any unusual findings on the
