Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation interview and record review the facility failed to follow its policy and procedure (P&P) titled
Charting and Documentation in accordance with professional standards of practice for one of three
sampled residents (Resident 1), when the licensed nurses did not change Resident 1's wound dressing
every shift as ordered by the physician for two days and documented in the electronic medical record that
the wound treatment was completed. This failure had the potential to result in delay in care, wound healing,
and cause an infection from bacteria buildup.Findings:During a review of Resident 1's admission Record
(AR- a summary of information regarding a resident which includes patient identification, past medical
history, insurance status, care providers, family contact information and other pertinent information), the AR
indicated, Resident 1 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnosis for injury at C5 level of cervical
spinal cord (damage to the nerves in the neck that control muscles in the upper body), Stage 4 pressure
ulcer (Stage 1: The skin is intact but looks red, and may feel warm, firm, or painful. Stage 2: The skin
breaks, creating a shallow open sore or a ruptured blister. Stage 3: The sore deepens into a crater that
reaches the layer of fat beneath the skin. Stage 4: The damage extends through the skin to the muscle,
bone, or joints, open wound with exposed bone). During a review of Resident 1's Minimum Data Set [MDS
a resident assessment tool used to identify cognitive (mental processes) and physical functional level
assessment] dated 11/11/2025, the MDS indicated, Resident 1's Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS
screening tool used to assess resident cognitive level) score was 15 out of 15 (0 - 7 indicated severe
cognitive impairment [memory loss, poor decision making skills] 8-12 moderate cognitive impairment, (13
-15) cognitively intact) which indicated Resident 1 was cognitively intact. During an interview on 11/12/25 at
12:01 p.m. with Resident 1 in his room, Resident 1 stated he had a wound to the coccyx (small bone at the
bottom of the spine) that required wound dressing change every day. Resident 1 stated there were days
when the nurses would not complete his treatment as ordered by the physician. Resident 1 stated the last
time the wound dressing was changed was on 11/9/25. Resident 1 stated he had requested the nurse to
change his dressing for the past two days but was unsuccessful. Resident 1 stated he felt neglected by the
facility nurses when he would request the wound dressing be changed and the nurses did not complete the
treatment order. During a concurrent observation and interview on 11/12/25 at 12:12 p.m. with licensed
vocational nurse (LVN) 1, Resident 1's wound dressing and wound to the coccyx were observed. The
wound dressing was observed initialed and dated 11/9/25. LVN 1 stated that according to the date on the
wound dressing, Resident 1's wound dressing was last changed on 11/9/25. During a record review of
Resident 1's, Order Summary Report, dated 10/13/25, the order summary indicated, . Coccyx pressure
ulcer stage 4- Cleanse with wound cleaner, pat dry, pack loosely with gauze w/ [brand name medication],
cover foam dressing. As needed. Coccyx pressure ulcer stage 4- Cleanse with wound Phone cleaner, pat
dry, pack loosely with gauze w/ [brand name medication], cover foam dressing. Every shift. The order

medication], cover foam dressing. Every shift. LVN 1 stated the TAR indicated the wound dressing treatment
order was completed on 11/9/25, 11/10/25, and 11/11/25 but based on the concurrent wound dressing
observation, the last date on the wound dressing was 11/9/25. LVN 1 stated the facility process was for the
nurse to complete the treatment order from the physician and to initial and date the wound dressing to
validate the wound dressing was changed. LVN 1 stated it was important to initial and date the wound
dressing to ensure the wound dressing was changed as ordered. LVN 1 stated, documentation on the TAR
was false, because observed dressing on Resident 1's coccyx did not match with the TAR. LVN 1 stated it
was important to complete and document all wound treatment as orders to prevent a wound infection.
During an interview on 11/12/25 at 12:30 p.m. with LVN 2, LVN 2 stated the facility process was to complete
all Resident treatment orders. LVN 2 stated the facility process included initialing and dating the wound
dressing to ensure the dressings were being changed. LVN 2 stated it was important to complete all
treatment orders to prevent infections and to prevent wound deterioration. During an interview on 11/12/25
at 12:54 p.m. with the registered nurse supervisor (RNS), the RNS stated the facility expectation was for the
wound dressing to have been completed as ordered by the physician. The RNS stated the facility process
was to initial and date the dressing being applied to the wound to ensure the dressing was changed. The
RNS stated if a wound dressing could not be completed during a shift, the facility nurse is expected to
document it and endorse the treatment to another nurse and let the RNS know. During an interview on
11/12/25 at 1:07 p.m. with the director of nursing (DON), the DON stated the expectation was for the
treatment order to be completed for every resident. The DON stated the expectation was for the nurse to
notify the RNS when a wound treatment could not be completed. The DON stated it was not acceptable to
document a wound treatment was completed when the wound dressing was not changed. The DON stated
it was important to have complete and accurate documentation to monitor and treat the wounds as needed.
During a review of the facility's policy and procedure (P&P) titled, Charting and Documentation, dated
7/2017, the P&P indicated, . All services provided to the resident, progress toward the care plan goals, or
any changes in the resident's medical, physical, functional or psychosocial condition, shall be documented

observation interview and record review the facility failed to follow its policy and procedure (P&P) titled
Charting and Documentation in accordance with professional standards of practice for one of three
sampled residents (Resident 2), when the certified nursing assistants (CNA) did not document Resident 1's
urine output every shift on 10/31/25, 11/1/25, 11/2/25, 11/5/25, 11/9/25, 11/10/25, 11/12/25. This failure had
the potential to result in delay in care and cause an infection from not assisting Resident 2 with urine
elimination.Findings:During a review of Resident 2's admission Record (AR- a summary of information
regarding a resident which includes patient identification, past medical history, insurance status, care
providers, family contact information and other pertinent information), the AR indicated, Resident 2 was
admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnosis for cerebral infarction (blocked or reduced blood supply to
the brain), calculus of kidney (hard piece of material that form in one or both kidneys), muscle weakness,
constipation. During a review of Resident 2's Minimum Data Set [MDS a resident assessment tool used to
identify cognitive (mental processes) and physical functional level assessment] dated 7/9/2025, the MDS
indicated, Resident 2's Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS screening tool used to assess resident
cognitive level) score was 8 out of 15 (0 - 7 indicated severe cognitive impairment [memory loss, poor
decision making skills] 8-12 moderate cognitive impairment, (13 -15) cognitively intact) which indicated
Resident 2 had moderate cognitive impairment. During a review of Resident 2's, Bladder Elimination
Record, dated 10/31/25-11/12/25, the bladder elimination record indicated Resident 2 had been assisted
with urination on: 10/31/25- 5:04 a.m. Amount four times for the day, 11/1/25- 3:26 a.m. amount three times
for the day, 11/2/25 5:05 a.m. amount five times for the day, 11/3/25- 4:56 a.m. four times & 5:41 p.m. four

interview and record review on 11/12/25 at 10:51 a.m. with Licensed vocational nurse (LVN) 3, Resident
2's, Bladder Elimination record, dated 10/31/25-11/12/25, was reviewed. LVN 3 stated the bladder
elimination record was completed by the certified nursing assistants (CNA) who were caring for Resident 2.
LVN 3 stated the expectation was for the CNAs to document the number of times Resident 2 was assisted
during the working shift with urine elimination. LVN 3 stated the bladder elimination record was incomplete,
as some of the CNA entries were not completed for the days of 10/31/25, 11/1/25, 11/2/25, 11/5/25,
11/9/25, 11/10/25, 11/12/25. LVN 3 stated the incomplete documentation on the bladder elimination record
indicated the care did not occur because it was not accurately documented. LVN 3 stated it was important
that CNAs complete all documentation timely and accurately to ensure Residents are monitored
appropriately when voiding. LVN 3 stated the CNA documentation was an important part of all residents'
care and services provided. During a concurrent interview and record review on 11/12/25 at 1:07 p.m. with
the director of nursing (DON), Resident 2's, Bladder Elimination record, dated 10/31/25-11/12/25, was
reviewed. The DON stated the expectation was for the CNAs to complete all documentation for all residents
before they leave the facility at the end of the shift. The DON stated CNAs were expected to document after
each time a resident was assisted to the bathroom, not just at the end of the shift. The DON stated it was
important to have complete and accurate documentation to monitor and treat
