Interview on 02/11/25 at 11:37 AM with Resident #67 revealed the resident asked if he could include his
Family Member and made a phone call. Resident #67 and his Family Member stated there had been a lot
of issues in regard to his wound care. They stated that the facility staff were not properly trained in providing
wound care. Resident #67 stated there had been several times he needed assistance with care with his
wound vacuum or needed his dressing changed and he felt staff would ignore him because they did not
want to provide wound care. Resident #67 stated he and his Family Member had been speaking with the
Administrator and the DON to have consistent and timely wound care. According to the Family Member and
Resident #67, nursing staff to include the LVN M, were rude and lacked customer service and bedside
manner. The staff would not want to complete his wound care. Resident #67 stated when LVN M was not
available or had a day off, wound care could not be completed, because other nurses lacked the proper
training to assist him with administering the wound vacuum. Resident #67 stated he has a wound on each
hip and one right below his right butt check. Resident #67 stated upon speaking with the Administrator,
wound care and placement of the wound vacuum should be completed early in the mornings at the start of
shift. Resident #67 stated on last Sunday (02/09/25) he alerted RN C about 7:30 - 7:45 AM that he did not
feel well, and needed to have his wounds cleaned and vacuum replaced because the wounds were leaking
all over his bed and wheelchair. Resident #67 stated RN C did not return to assess, clean, and connect the
wound vacuum until 5:30 PM, just prior to the end of her shift. At that time, it was discovered RN C did not
have enough supplies to complete care which resulted in a prolonged wait to get care. According to
Resident #67 the vacuum machine was malfunctioning early in the morning hours. It was off and not
working, and the bandages were coming off allowing the wound to drain and leak all day which was
disgusting.
Interview on 02/12/25 at 5:38 PM with RN C revealed she worked with Resident #67 on 02/09/25. She
stated Resident #67 came to the nursing station around 7:30 - 7:45 AM and he stated, I'm not feeling good,
I had been laying in this, I am leaking all over my bed, myself, and now my wheelchair. RN C

stated Resident #67 looked pale, he looked sick (lips were pale, sclera pale). The wound looked like his
wound was leaking, and the dressing needed to be changed. RN C stated she then told Resident #67 to
contact Family Member and discuss being sent out to the hospital because she did not want to complete
the care with a new canister if he was going out. She stated, she needed to know which supplies to use. If
he was going to the hospital, she would need to use wet to dry supplies. RN C stated she was waiting on
Resident #67 to come back to her with a response from the Family Member, on what they had decided
about him going to the hospital or if he would stay in the facility. RN C stated, I should not have waited so
long; I should not have allowed him to be last to complete care. RN C stated when she got around to
checking on Resident #67 it was after 5:00 PM. RN C stated, I had other things going on and could not
prioritize him above other situations, I did not intently neglect him. RN C stated she never made rounds to
check on Resident #67 throughout the shift. However, she was responsible for ensuring wound care for
Resident #67 was completed in a timely manner. She stated, not doing so placed him at risk of him
becoming septic and making wounds worst with no suction. RN C stated she did not reach out to anyone
during her shift for assistance to provide care for Resident #67. She stated she did not report to the DON or
the Physician, Resident #67's status throughout the shift. RN C stated she was aware she should have
reported that Resident #67 was not feeling well and that he also looked like he was not feeling well. RN C
stated she could not say when the last time she had been trained to notify the physician of change of
condition.
Interview on 02/13/25 at 12:28 PM with the DON revealed she received a call from RN C around 5:30 PM
indicating there were no supplies available to complete wound care for Resident #67. She stated that she
thought the wound vacuum was messed up. According to the DON, she instructed RN C to look at the
vacuum and contact LVN M for supplies. The DON stated she got confirmation from RN C that the vacuum
was changed and working properly. According to the DON, she was in communication with RN C
throughout the day and RN C never reported Resident #67 was not feeling or did not look well. The DON
stated she heard from the Family Member that Resident #67 had reported that he was not feeling well. The
DON stated she would have expected RN C to address Resident #67's concerns with his wounds and
wound care in a timely manner, not wait the entire shift to complete care. The DON stated she also would
expect RN C to have reported any negative findings to her, for example Resident #67 not looking well. The
DON stated him saying he was not feeling well and him not looking well was an indication that something
was not right with him. The DON stated RN C should have also contacted the physician so that he would be
aware of what was going on with Resident #67 and follow any new orders or instruction provided by the
physician. The DON stated RN C was responsible for notifying the DON and the Physician with any
changes in resident status , not doing so placed Resident #67 at risk for infection, sepsis and prolonging
the care he required.
Interview on 02/14/25 at 1:16 PM with the Physician revealed he was not made aware that Resident #67
had a change in condition. The Physician stated he expected to be notified by the facility if there was
change in condition with residents. The Physician stated if the wound vacuum machine was beeping that
indicated the wound vacuum needed to be checked. The Physician stated at that time the wound should be
assessed by the wound care nurse or the nurse on duty with the possibility of the dressings to be changed .
According to the Physician he would have like the wound dressing to have been changed within 24 hours.
The Physician stated not doing so could place Resident #67 at risk for infection at the wound.
Record review of facility policy revised 03/11/23 titled Notifying the Physician of Change in Status reflected
The nurse should not hesitate to contact the physician at any time when an assessment and their
professional judgement deem it necessary for immediate medical attention. The nurse will notify the
physician immediately with significant change in

member that he fell in the van outside in the parking lot. The Administrator stated he went out front, saw
Resident #67 laying on the floor of the van yelling and cursing, stating his head hurt. The Administrator
stated the nursing staff assessed him and stayed with him until he was taken by emergency medical
services to the hospital. The Administrator stated when he went outside, he observed all four points
connected, he did not recall seeing the seat belt connected. The Administrator stated he contacted the
transport company to provide a statement about the incident. The Administrator stated they were not
contracted with the outsourced transportation company and was not responsible for residents once they
were in the hands of the outside provider. The Administrator revealed when residents used an outsourced
transportation company residents were picked up from the nursing station or the front door by the van
driver. The Administrator stated the Van Driver of the transport company was responsible for ensuring
residents were safely transported, not doing so placed residents at risk of injuries. The Administrator stated
the Van Driver stated to him, he did not know what happened, had all four points secured. The
Administrator stated he did not complete an investigation. He stated he did not report to Health and Human
Services because the transportation company followed up with him, and advised they would be reporting
the incident to Health and Human Services, so he did not feel like he needed to do so . The Administrator
revealed he did not feel like he had to report this incident within 2 hours because Resident #67 was not
within the care of the facility. According to the Administrator he had not planned to report the incident to
Health and Human Services and not doing so place Resident #67 at risk of further accidents and injury.

Interview on 02/11/25 at 11:37 AM with Resident #67 revealed on 02/06/25 he had a urology appointment
and after he was loaded on the van, he fell backwards hitting his head. According to Resident #67 he had a
headache and pain in his right hand from the fall. Resident #67 stated it was not the facility van driver, but
an outside provider that was taking him to his appointment. Resident #67 stated he took off like a race car
driver in the parking lot and I fell backwards, hitting my head on the floor, and blacked out. Resident #67
stated the van driver did not strap me down correctly, so when he took off, I fell backwards and hit my head,
and was sent to the hospital.
Interview on 02/13/25 at 12:28 PM DON revealed she knew Resident #67 was scheduled for urology
appointment on 02/06/25, she stated the facility van had other appointments, so he was to be transported
by an outside transport provider. The Social Worker stated she did not see Resident #67 exit the building for
his appointment. The DON stated she was alerted to come outside, when she got outside, she saw
Resident #67 still in his wheelchair; straps were still attached. According to the DON she jumped in the van

the wheelchair, assessed and was one on one with nurse until the emergency medical services arrived to
take him to the hospital. The DON stated Resident #67 was delirious and not holding good truck control he
was not his baseline, he complained of head pain and stated that he lost consciousness. The DON stated
she did not speak to the Van Driver; she did not recall if an incident report was completed. According to the
DON, the Administrator was present and would have handled any reporting, she was busy with Resident #6
ensuring he was ok. According to the DON drivers were responsible for entering the facility to transport
residents out and back inside upon returning to the facility. The DON stated the Administrator was
responsible for reporting all incidents to Health and Human Services, not doing so could place residents at
risk of further injuries.
Interview on 02/13/25 at 2:47 PM with Social Worker revealed when residents require an outside
appointment, they will leave notification for the Facility Transportation Driver to schedule the appointment
with the provider and arrange transportation. According to the Social Worker, she was alerted by the Van
Driver coming to the door saying, your patient has flipped out here on the van, the Social Worker stated at
that point she alerted either the Administrator or the DON. The Social Worker stated when she got outside,
she saw Resident #67 laying on his back yelling at the Van Driver you fucking dropped me, there was no
way I was strapped in. According to the Social Worker Resident #67 and the Van Driver were going back
and forth indicating Resident #67 was upset. The Social Worker stated

member that he fell in the van outside in the parking lot. The Administrator stated he went out front, saw
Resident #67 laying on the floor of the van yelling and cursing, stating his head hurt. The Administrator
stated the nursing staff assessed him and stayed with him until he was taken by emergency medical
services to the hospital. The Administrator stated when he went outside, he observed all four points
connected, he did not recall seeing the seat belt connected. The Administrator stated he contacted the
transport company to provide a statement about the incident. The Administrator stated they were not

were in the hands of the outside provider. The Administrator revealed when residents used an outsourced
transportation company residents are picked up from the nursing station or the front door by the van driver.

Driver stated to him, he did not know what happened, had all four points secured. The Administrator stated

the transportation company followed up with him, and advised they would be reporting the incident to
Health and Human Services, so he did not feel like he needed to do so . The Administrator revealed he did
not feel like he had to report this incident within 2 hours because Resident #67 was not within the care of
the facility. According to the Administrator he had not planned to report the incident to Health and Human
Services and not doing so place Resident #67 at risk of further accidents and injury.

assistance with care with his wound vacuum or needed his dressing changed and he felt staff would ignore
him because they did not want to provide wound care. Resident #67 stated he and his Family Member had
been speaking with the Administrator and the DON to have consistent and timely wound care. According to
the Family Member and Resident #67, nursing staff to include the LVN M were rude and lacked customer
service and bedside manner, staff would not want to complete his wound care. Resident #67 stated when
the LVN M was not available or had a day off wound care could not be completed because other nurses,
they lack the proper training to assist him with administering the wound vacuum. Resident #67 stated he
has a wound on each hip and one right below his right butt check. Resident #67 stated upon speaking with
the Administrator, wound care and placement of the wound vacuum should be completed early in the
mornings at the start of shift. Resident #67 stated on last Sunday (02/09/25) he alerted RN C about 7:30
AM-7:45 AM that he did not feel well, and needed to have his wounds cleaned and vacuum replaced
because the wounds were leaking all over his bed and wheelchair. Resident #67 stated RN C did not return
to assess, clean, and connect the wound vacuum until 5:30 PM just prior to the end of her shift, at that time
it was discovered RN C did not have enough supplies to complete care which resulted in a prolonged wait
to get care. According to Resident #67 the vacuum machine was malfunctioning early in the morning hours,
it was off and not working, the bandages were coming off allowing the wound to drain and leak all day
which was disgusting.
Interview on 02/12/25 at 5:38 PM with RN C revealed she worked with Resident #67 on 02/09/25, she
stated Resident #67 came to the nursing station around 7:30 - 7:45 AM he stated I'm not feeling good, I
had been laying in this, I am leaking all over my bed, myself, and now my wheelchair. RN C stated Resident
#67 looked pale, he looked sick (lips were pale, sclera pale). The wound looked like his wound was leaking,
and the dressing needed to be changed. RN C stated she then told Resident #67 to contact Family Member
and discuss being sent out to the hospital because she did not want to complete the care with a new
canister if he was going out. She stated, I needed to know which supplies to use, if he was going to the
hospital, I would need to use wet to day supplies. RN C stated she was waiting on Resident #67 to come
back to her with a response from Family Member, on what they had decided about him going to the hospital
or if he would stay in the facility. RN C stated I should not have waited so long; I should not have allowed
him to be last to complete care. RN C stated when she got around to checking on Resident #67 it was after
5:00 PM. RN C stated I completed care on the right hip, and I did not know if you did one side you needed
to do the other side as well, there was not enough supplies to complete the left side. I reached out to the
DON because I did not have enough supplies to complete wound care for the left side, she then gave me
LVN M's number to contact her about obtaining supplies. After contacting LVN M, she came to the facility to
provide me with supplies, this was around 6:00 PM. RN C stated, I had other things going on and could not
prioritize him above other situations, I did not intently neglect him. RN C stated she never made rounds to
check on Resident #67 throughout the shift however she was responsible for ensuring wound care for
Resident #67 was completed in a timely manner, not doing so placed him at risk of him being in sepsis and
making wounds worst with no suction. RN C stated she did not reach out to anyone during her shift for
assistance to provide care for Resident #67, she stated she just thought she would get to him prior to the
end of her shift. RN C stated the Family Member entered Resident #67's room upset about him not
receiving timely care and completed the wound care with RN C observing. According to RN C she received
a video in-service on 02/10/25 and she was also expected to do one on one training with the LVN M on how
to use wound vacuum. According to RN C she was trained on wound vacuum in prior positions however,
not the way it was requested by Resident #67 and Family Member . RN C stated not providing care to

timely manner was neglect and she did not intend on neglecting him by not addressing his wounds, not
assessing him when he stated he did not feel well and when Resident #67 did not look like he felt well, as
well as when she did not follow up on him until the end of her shift which was 10 hours later. RN C stated
she had been inserviced several times on neglect, which was what I had done to Resident #67. RN C
stated when Resident #67 looked pale, he looked sick (lips were pale, sclera pale). The wound looked like
his wound was leaking, and the dressing needed to be changed, she recognized he had a change in
condition and should have reported this change to the DON and the Physician.
Interview on 02/13/25 at 12:28 PM with the DON revealed she received a call from RN C around 5:30 PM
indicating there were no supplies available to complete wound care for Resident #67, that she thought the
wound vacuum was messed up. According to the DON, she instructed RN C to look at the vacuum and
contact the LVN M for supplies. The DON stated she called LVN M to bring supplies and was on the phone
with the LVN M when she entered the facility to deliver supplies. According to the DON, only a limited
number of supplies are put out on the wound cart or in the medication room, when additional supplies are
needed, the LVN M was contacted so she can tell us where to get more or she will come to the facility to
get them from her office. The DON stated she got confirmation from RN C that the vacuum was changed
and working properly. According to the DON, she was in communication with RN C throughout the day and
she never reported Resident #67 was not feeling well or did not look well. The DON stated she heard from
Family Member that Resident #67 requested earlier in the day to have his wounds changed and machine
inspected. The DON stated she would have expected RN C to address Resident #67's concerns with his
wounds and wound care in a timely manner, not wait the entire shift to complete care. The DON stated she
sent a video to RN C on Monday and had been having all nursing staff to shadow one on one wound care
with LVN M, that started weeks ago. The DON stated she started this process, so nurses were comfortable
changing the wound vacuum and the supplies, and what to do when wound vacuums were beeping. The
DON stated the RN was responsible for addressing Resident #67's needs for his wounds, and reporting
when residents have a change in condition to the physician, the DON, and the Administrator. The DON
further stated, not completing care in a timely manner placed Resident #67 at risk of sepsis, wound
breakdown, hospitalization, and septic shock and because of that we took disciplinary action . According to
DON, RN C neglected Resident #67 when she did not provide care in a timely manner when she saw that
his wound was leaking and she saw the he did not look as if he was feeling well. DON stated when you are
not addressing these concerns you are basically neglect the resident. DON stated when his condition
changed, him not looking at his baseline, RN C should have notified myself and the Physician, not providing
care or notifying the physician of Resident #67's condition was neglectful and went against facility policy.

and he expected the nursing staff to address any wound changes or resident needs in a timely manner. The
Administrator stated it was reported back to him the dressings and wound care was completed. The
Administrator stated he expected nurses to ensure they were following doctor orders, not doing so placed
Resident #67 at risk of having to be sent out to the hospital for not addressing his need for wound care. The

not feel he needed to because the wound care was completed . According to the Administrator the DON

Administrator stated not providing wound care, when the wound is leaking and Resident #67 stated he did
not feel well, and not checking on Resident #67 for the entire shift would be a form of neglect, placing
Resident #67 at risk of infection or the need to be sent to the hospital.
Interview on 02/14/25 at 1:16 PM with the Physician revealed he was not made aware that Resident #67
looked as if he was not feeling well by RN C, that he had a change in condition. The Physician stated he
expected to be notified by the facility if there was change in condition with residents. The Physician stated if
the wound vacuum machine was beeping that indicated the wound vacuum needed to be checked. The
Physician stated at that time the wound should be assessed with the possibility of the dressings to be
changed . According the Physician waiting to the end of the shift to address Resident #67's needs, change
in condition and assess his wounds was a form of neglect, waiting 10 hours could place the resident at risk
of several things and the need to be sent to the hospital.

services, based on the comprehensive assessment and consistent with professional standards of practice,
to prevent development of pressure ulcers for 1 (Resident #67) of 2 residents reviewed for pressure ulcers
with use of a wound vacuum.
Residents Affected - Few
RN C failed to provide Resident #67 with wound care when he reported to her on 02/09/25 at approximately
7:30 AM that he was not feeling well and needed his dressing changed because his wound vac was
leaking. RN C did not follow-up with Resident #67 for care until 5:30 PM at which time she discovered she
did not have enough supplies to complete wound care. The wound care was not provided for approximately
10 hours after the resident had asked to have the dressing changed, which resulted in resident discomfort
and wound drainage getting on the resident, his wheelchair, and bed linens.
An IJ was identified on 02/13/25. The IJ template was provided to the facility on [DATE] at 5:20 PM. While
the IJ was removed on 02/14/25, the facility remained out of compliance at a scope of isolated and a
severity level potential for more than minimal harm that is not Immediate Jeopardy, due to the facility's need
to implement corrective systems.

anxiety disorder, pressure ulcer (damage to an area of the skin caused by constant pressure on the area
for a long time) of unspecified buttock, unspecified stage and need for assistance with personal care. The
MDS further revealed Section M - Skin Conditions - Skin and Ulcer/Injury Treatment indicated the resident's
required pressure ulcer/injury care and surgical wound care.
Record review of Resident #67's Care plan, revised date 01/29/25, reflected: Focus: [Resident #67] has a
pressure at multiple sites. Please see physician orders and [MAR] for wound and treatment. Goal: [Resident

they lack the proper training to assist him with administering the wound vacuum. Resident #67 stated he
has a wound on each hip and one right below his right butt check. Resident #67 stated upon speaking with
the Administrator, wound care and placement of the wound vacuum should be completed early in the
mornings at the start of shift. Resident #67 stated on last Sunday (02/09/25) he alerted RN C about 7:30 7:45 AM that he did not feel well, and needed to have his wounds cleaned

and vacuum replaced because the wounds were leaking all over his bed and wheelchair. Resident #67
stated RN C did not return to assess, clean, and connect the wound vacuum until 5:30 PM just prior to the
end of her shift, at that time it was discovered RN C did not have enough supplies to complete care which
resulted in a prolonged wait to get care. According to Resident #67 the vacuum machine was
malfunctioning early in the morning hours, it was off and not working, the bandages were coming off
allowing the wound to drain and leak all day which was disgusting.
Residents Affected - Few
Observation on 02/12/25 at 10:55 AM of Resident #67's wound care for Resident #67 with LVN M she
explained the procedure was to wash her hands and put all the supplies together then donn PPE. Resident
#67 was positioned, and the wound vacuum was disconnected. She removed the old dressings on the left
hip and ischium. The wound looks clean no signs of swelling, redness, or bleeding was observed. She
cleansed the area with gauze soaked with solution inside out with each swipe. She patted dry. The wound
doctor measured the wound. She cleansed again and patted dry. She sprayed the edges with skin prep and
waited to dry. She applied xeroform on an open area on the hip. She then applied the film to cover the hip.
She cut the film to the size of the wound and applied the black foam. She doffed and washed hands and
repeated the same procedure for the ischium. She doffed gloves and washed her hands. She applied the
film to cover both areas and a bridge sponge was applied. She applied the tubing and then covered with
film, and she anchored the tubing not to touch the body. She washed hands and donned gloves. She
removed the old dressing on the right hip. The wound was observed, no swelling, no odor, and no bleeding
was observed or redness. The same procedure was applied to the right hip. LVN M then connected both
tubes from both hips and connected to a new canister and put it on. The pressure was at 125 mm mercury
pressure. The wound vac was left working properly.
Observation and interview on 02/12/25 at 11:39 AM with the Wound Care Doctor revealed him stating both
wounds are measuring about the same maybe a bit smaller in diameter (left ischium 2x1.5x1.5 cm, left hip
4.5x5x.06 cm, and right hip 6x5x1 cm). According to the Wound Care Doctor, he was not notified about the
wound vacuum malfunctioning on 02/09/25. He further stated, Resident #67 left the facility a lot and that
may have to do with the reason for the vacuum disconnecting, and I don't think they have staff over the
weekend that is able to address that issue. The Wound Care Doctor stated therefore it has to be addressed
on the following business day and Resident #67 would usually inform me when I come on Wednesday. The
Wound Care Doctor stated he would like the wound to be cared for in a timely manner, and there should be
staff trained to address the issue. The Wound Care Doctor stated not caring for the wound or replacing the
dressing could place Resident #67 at risk of infection and needing to be sent to the hospital for sepsis. He
further stated, I have no concerns with his care and the wound treatments .
Interview on 02/12/25 at 1:15 PM with the LVN M revealed she had been working with Resident #67 on
wound care. She stated she was notified on 02/09/25 by RN C there were no supplies to complete wound
care for Resident #67. LVN M stated she came to the facility to replenish supplies and left some in Resident
#67's room. LVN M stated supplies were normally kept on the wound cart and the medication room located
behind the nursing station. She stated that she could be contacted, if needed, to gather supplies out of her
office if needed. LVN M stated when she arrived at the facility RN C asked her to provide care to Resident
#67's wound, she said she responded No, today is my off day and she left the facility. According to the LVN
M, Central Supply was responsible to keep supplies stocked, not doing so could place the residents at risk
of not receiving timely care as needed.
Interview on 02/12/25 at 5:38 PM with RN C revealed she worked with Resident #67 on 02/09/25. She
stated Resident #67 came to the nursing station around 7:30 - 7:45 AM. He stated, I'm not feeling good, I
had been laying in this, I am leaking all over my bed, myself, and now my wheelchair. RN C

stated Resident #67 looked pale, he looked sick (lips were pale, sclera pale). The wound looked like it was
leaking, and it needed to be changed. RN C stated she then told Resident #67 to contact Family Member
and discuss being sent out to the hospital because she did not want to complete the care with the new
canister if he was going out. She stated, I needed to know which supplies to use, if he was going to the
hospital, I would need to use wet to day supplies. RN C stated she was waiting on Resident #67 to come
back to her with a response from Family Member, on what they had decided about going to the hospital. RN
C stated when she got around to checking on Resident #67 it was after 5:00 PM, she stated I completed
care on the right hip, and I did not know if you did one side you needed to do the other side as well, there
was not enough supplies to complete the left side. I reached out to the DON, and she gave me the LVN M's
number to contact her, she then came to the facility to bring me supplies, this was around 6:00 PM. RN C
stated, I had other things going on and could not prioritize him, I did not intently neglect him. RN C stated
she was responsible for ensuring wound care for Resident #67 was completed in a timely manner, not
doing so placed him at risk of him being in sepsis and making wounds worst with no suction. RN C stated
the Family Member entered Resident #67's room upset about him not receiving timely care and completed
the wound care with RN C observing. According to RN C she received a video in-service on 02/10/25 and
she was also expected to do one on one training with the LVN M on how to use wound vacuum. According
to RN C she was trained on wound vacuum in prior positions however, not the way it was requested by
Resident #67 and Family Member.
Interview on 02/13/25 at 12:28 PM with the DON revealed she received a call from RN C around 5:30 PM
indicating there was no supplies available to complete wound care for Resident #67, that she thought the
wound vacuum was messed up, According to the DON she instructed RN C to look at the vacuum and
contact the LVN M for supplies. The DON stated she also called the LVN M to bring supplies and was on
the phone with the LVN M when she entered the facility to deliver supplies. According to the DON only a
limited number of supplies are put out on the wound cart or in the medication room, when additional
supplies are needed, the LVN M was contacted so she can tell us where to get more or she will come to the
facility to get them from her office. The DON stated she got confirmation from RN C that the vacuum was
changed and working properly. According to the DON she was in communication with RN C throughout the
day and she never reported Resident #67 was not feeling or did not look well. The DON stated she heard
from Family Member that Resident #67 requested earlier in the day to have his wounds changed and
machine inspected. The DON stated she would have expected RN C to address Resident #67's concerns
with his wounds and wound care in a timely manner, not wait the entire shift to complete care. The DON
stated she sent a you tube video to RN C on Monday and had been having all nursing staff to shadow one
on one wound care with the LVN M that started weeks ago. The DON stated she started this process, so
nurses were comfortable changing the wound vacuum and the supplies, and what to do when wound
vacuums are beeping. The DON stated RN was responsible for addressing Resident #67's needs for his
wounds, and reporting when residents have a change in condition to the physician, DON, and the
Administrator. The DON further stated, not completing care in a timely manner placed Resident #67 at risk
of sepsis, wound breakdown, hospitalization, and septic shock and because of that we took disciplinary
action.
Interview on 02/13/25 at 4:27 PM with the Administrator revealed he received a call from the Family
Member on 02/09/25 that RN C was refusing to replace the wound vacuum for Resident #67, that she was
trying to send him out to the hospital instead. According to the Administrator the Family Member reported
she saw supplies in the room. The Administrator stated, I don't know if the nurse knew what she was doing
and that he expected the nursing staff to address any wound changes or resident needs in a timely manner.

ADONs were responsible for ensuring the nurses were trained to complete wound care. The Administrator
stated it was reported back to him the dressings and wound care was completed that day. The
Administrator stated he expected nurses to ensure they are following doctor orders, not doing so placed
Resident #67 at risk of infections and having to be sent out to the hospital for not addressing his need for
wound care. The Administrator stated he did not have the full story of events and he did not investigate the
incident; he did not feel he needed to because the wound care was completed . The Administrator stated
that he expected Resident #67's wound care to have been completed in the mornings at the beginning of
the 6:00 AM shift. The Administrator stated not providing wound care, when the wound is leaking and
Resident #67 stated he did not feel well, and not checking on Resident #67 for the entire shift would be a
form of neglect.

had a change in condition, the Physician stated he expected to be notified by the facility if there was
change in condition with residents. The Physician stated if the wound vacuum machine was beeping that
indicated the wound vacuum needed to be checked. The Physician stated at that time the wound should be
assessed with the possibility of the dressings to be changed . According the Physician waiting 10 hours
could place the resident at risk of several things and the need to be sent to the hospital
Record review of facility policy revised 10/05/16 titled Skin Integrity Management reflected:
Wound care should be performed as ordered by the physician. Skin should be cleansed at the time of
soiling and the routine intervals. The frequency of skin cleansing should be individualized according to
need/and or resident preference. Minimize skin exposure to moisture due to incontinence, perspiration, or
wound drainage.

Ensure that a nursing home area is free from accident hazards and provides adequate supervision to
prevent accidents.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure each resident received adequate
supervision and assistance devices to prevent accidents for two of six residents (Resident #67 and
Resident #99) reviewed for accidents.
1. The facility failed to provide adequate supervision to prevent Resident #99, who had cognitive impairment
and resided on the secure unit, from eloping from the facility on 02/03/25 when the resident pried open the
window in his room and made it 0.9 miles away from the facility.
An Immediate Jeopardy was identified on 02/12/25 at 3:50 PM. While the Immediate Jeopardy was
removed on 02/14/25, the facility remained out of compliance at the severity level of Potential for more than
minimal harm that was not immediate jeopardy and a scope of Isolated due to the facility continuing to
monitor the implementation and effectiveness of their plan of removal.
2. The facility failed to provide adequate supervision and assistive devices to Resident #67 on 02/06/25
when he was not properly secured on the facility's van, which resulted in the resident falling backwards in
his wheelchair and hitting his head on the floor of the van during takeoff in the facility's parking lot. Resident
#67 was sent to hospital resulting where he was evaluated and treated for head injury and a contusion of
the right hand .
An IJ was identified on 02/13/25. The IJ template was provided to the facility on [DATE] at 5:20 PM. While
the IJ was removed on 02/14/25, the facility remained out of compliance at a scope of Isolated and a
severity level potential for more than minimal harm that was not Immediate Jeopardy, due to the facility's
need to implement corrective systems.
This failure could place residents at risk for severe injury or harm, decline in health, and decreased quality
of life and death.
Findings included:
1. Record review of Resident #99's admission Record dated, 02/12/25, reflected the resident was a [AGE]
year old male with an initial admit date of 01/14/25 and readmission date of 01/21/25. Resident #99's
diagnoses included: unspecified dementia, muscle wasting and atrophy, depression, and chronic kidney
disease.
Record review of Resident #99's Optional State Assessment MDS dated , 01/18/25, reflected the resident's
original admission date of 01/14/25 and readmission date of 01/21/25. Resident #99's MDS also reflected
the resident was mildly impaired with a BIMS of 8. The MDS also reflected in Section E900 Wandering
Frequency occurred 1 to 3 days per week.
Record review of Resident #99's undated Care Plan reflected the resident was at risk for wandering and
elopement as evidenced by dementia and previous elopement when the resident convinced the hospital to
discharge him to home rather than the facility. The goal was for the resident to not leave the facility
unattended using interventions such as distract resident from wandering by offering pleasant diversions,
structed activities, food conversation, television, and book. The Care Plan also revealed if the resident was

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Interview on 02/14/25 at 09:41 AM with RN D revealed she was aware Resident #9 and Resident#63 went
for dialysis Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. She stated she was supposed to send Resident #9 and
Resident #63 with the dialysis communication form when they left for dialysis and then collect the form
when the resident's returned from dialysis. RN D stated she knew she was supposed to monitor the dialysis
access site for the bruit thrill (a vibration caused by blood flowing through the fistula and can be felt by
placing fingers just above incision line), dressing for bleeding and vital signs when Residents #9 and
Resident #63 were back from dialysis which she does and document in the progress notes. She stated it
was nurse's responsibility to collect the dialysis communication forms when Resident #9 and Resident #63
came back and filed them. RN D stated they were supposed to call the dialysis clinic and follow up if
communication forms were not sent back with residents. She stated the importance of the dialysis
communication forms was continuation of care between the dialysis and facility. Failure to follow up on the
communication form after dialysis was completed could cause them to miss the orders and
recommendations and treatments from dialysis center. She stated she had done trainings on dialysis
communication form.
Residents Affected - Some
Interview on 02/14/25 at 9:54 AM with the ADON A revealed her expectation was, nurses were supposed to
fill out the forms with the residents' pre-dialysis vitals, and the form would be taken to dialysis by Resident
#9 and Resident #63. She stated she expected the nurses to collect the form after dialysis, perform vital
signs, and document on communication forms and put the communication forms on the binders to be
uploaded. She stated the importance of the communication form was communication between the facility
and dialysis center on new orders, treatment given, and any change of condition. She stated she had
checked on the binders and had noticed the communication forms were missing after the surveyor brought
it to her attention. She stated she was responsible of ensuring nurses were completing the forms,
monitoring vitals pre and post dialysis. She stated the last time she checked the binders, was on 02/14/25
after she was notified the communication forms were missing. She stated the risk of not having the
communication form brought back from dialysis was omission of orders and not knowing what medications
were administered at the dialysis center.
Interview on 02/14/25 at 2:27 PM with the DON revealed her expectation was for the nurses to check vitals
before and after dialysis and document on the communication form. She stated she expected nurses to
send Resident #9 and Resident #63 with a communication form and get it when back from dialysis and if
forms are not sent back with Resident nurse should follow up with dialysis center. She stated the failure to
collect the forms back from dialysis where they could miss important orders from dialysis and the treatment
given at dialysis. She stated the ADON's were responsible of following up to ensure the staff were getting
the communication forms back from dialysis. She stated the facility had done training with staff and
provided a record dated 02/13/25 on dialysis policy that addressed dialysis monitoring of vitals before and
after dialysis and documentation.
Record review of the facility's Dialysis policy, dated November 2023, reflected the following:
.19.This facility will monitor departures and returns from the dialysis center. The facility will document the
resident vital signs, general appearance, orientation, and additional baseline data as needed. The
resident's clinical record will be documented with this information. The date and time of the resident's return
to the facility will be recorded by the nurse.

Hydrocodone-Acetaminophen oral tablet 10-325 mg I (one) tablet, to Resident #47 as needed every 8
hours, and she had not signed off on the narcotic administration record log. She had also administered
Hydrocodone-Acetaminophen oral tablet 10-325 mg 2 tablets to Resident #178 as needed every 8 hours,
and she had not signed off on the narcotic administration record log. She stated she knew she was
supposed to sign-out on the narcotic count sheet after administration and on the Medication Administration
Record, but she did not. RN C stated the failure to log off could lead to overdose since the person that
came after her would not be able to tell when the narcotic was administered. She stated failure to label the
cup and keeping the medication in a cup could lead to missing a dose and administering to wrong resident
leading to medication error. RN C also stated she was responsible of checking her cart every shift for the
expired medications, but she forgot to check. She stated the risk of having expired medication in her cart
was adverse effect if administered. She stated she had completed an in-service on Medication
administration.
Interview on 02/13/25 at 9:44 AM, the ADON B stated her expectation was for staff administering narcotic
medications to document the medications when they were given to the resident on the medication
administration record and to sign on the narcotic log. She stated she also expected RN C to assess the
Resident #7 before she popped Lorazepam 1mg ½ tablet and if she had made a mistake to call her
or any other nurse they destroy and not to put in cup in her pocket. She stated it was her responsibility to
audit the carts weekly and if there was an issue she audited daily. She stated she had last checked the cart
on 02/4/25. The ADON stated failure to document after administration and destroying after refusal or
popping by mistake could lead to drug diversion, missing of a dose, overdose and residents not getting
therapeutic effects. She stated facility had done trainings on medication administration.
Interview on 02/13/25 at 1:34 PM, the DON revealed her expectation was for staff administering narcotic
medications to document the medications when they were given to the resident on the medication
administration record and to sign on the narcotic log. She stated nurses should not be pulling medications if
the resident had not asked for it. She stated she asked RN C why she had not destroyed the medication
that she had accidentally popped, and she did not give her a varied answer. She stated she expected RN C
to label the cup, repull the right medication and then destroy the other one with a witness but not keeping in
her pocket. DON stated failure to document could lead to overdose and effect on resident management.
She stated ADONs were responsible for auditing the medication carts.

Ensure drugs and biologicals used in the facility are labeled in accordance with currently accepted
professional principles; and all drugs and biologicals must be stored in locked compartments, separately
locked, compartments for controlled drugs.
Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to ensure all drugs and biologicals
were stored securely and had acceptable labeling for one (Halls 200 nurses Medication Cart) of three
medication carts reviewed for labeling and storage.
The facility failed on 02/12/25 to ensure insulin vials were dated after they were opened and were not dated
with wrong dates located on the medication cart for the 200 hall.
This failure could place residents at risk of not receiving the therapy needed.
Findings included:
Observation on 02/12/25 at 1:55 PM of the nurses' medication cart used for Hall 200 back with RN C
revealed one insulin vial of Humalog 100 unit/ml which was opened, partially used, and not labeled with the
open date. There was also one vial of Levemir dated 5/11/25 that had been opened and partially used on
the cart.
Interview on 02/12/25 at 2:38 PM with RN C, who was the charge nurse for Halls 200 , revealed she knew
insulin pens/vials were supposed to be dated once they were opened or after they were removed from the
refrigerator and placed on the cart with an opening date. She stated she knew she was supposed to check
the cart every time she reported to work to ensure insulins pens were labeled and dated and those that
were expired to be discarded, but she did not check her cart that morning. She also stated failure to label
and date insulin with opened dates would not allow staff to notice when it expired, and they could continue
to administer expired medications and the blood sugar levels would not be controlled. She stated she had
been trained on labeling, storage and putting the open date but she could not tell when.
Interview on 02/13/25 at 9:50 AM with ADON B revealed, her expectation was all nurses to check their cart
for labelling and expired medications. She stated she expected the nurse to date insulin when opened. She
stated it was her responsibility to check the carts and ensure insulins were dated and labeled weekly. She
stated she last checked the carts on 02/4/2025. She stated the risk of not putting the opening date and
putting wrong dates on insulin vials/pens was that they cannot tell when they expire and if administered,
they might not meet the therapeutic effects as expected. She stated she had done in-service on labelling
and storage, but she did not provide any training records.
Interview on 02/13/25 at 1:34 PM with the DON revealed it was her expectation that staff dated the insulin
pens once they pulled them from the refrigerator, but it was all nurses responsibility to check the carts and
ensure insulins were dated and labeled. She stated it was the responsibility of ADON to monitor and ensure
the nurses were labelling and discarding the expired medications weekly. She stated if the staff were not
putting the opening dates on the insulin pens and vials, it placed residents at risk of having reactions like
the medication being ineffective since they could not tell of the potency. She could not provide any
documentation on trainings.
Record review of facility's policy titled Medication that must be dated when opened or storage condition
changed, dated 2003, reflected: All the medications below should have date opened written on the
medication and /or container it arrived in.

from the facility for Resident #2. The Speech Therapist stated that the director of rehabilitation normally
received the order for rehabilitation and passed it to her so that she could complete the initial screening
after the facility's morning meeting. The Speech Therapist stated that normally if there was a conversation
in the daily meeting, the director of rehab would inform her so that she could retrieve the facility
communication form that the facility administration completes on a resident that would be receiving speech
therapy. However, the Speech Therapist stated that she never received a communication form. And she was
never informed by the director of rehabilitation that the resident had an order for speech therapy. The facility
Speech Therapist stated that the resident's lost time in speech therapy could lead to a larger weight loss.
