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 ensure that residents received treatment and care in accordance with professional standards of practice and the comprehensive person-centered care plan, for one resident (Resident #5) of three residents reviewed for skin irregularities. When Resident #5 was readmitted into the facility on [DATE], LVN E failed to complete a thorough and accurate head-to-toe assessment that included assessing what was under Resident #5's right arm dressing/bandage. This failure could compromise a resident's skin integrity, which could increase the risk for progressive skin complications. Record review of the Resident #5's admission Record dated 10/24/2025 revealed Resident # 5 was a [AGE] year-old male who was initially admitted on [DATE] and readmitted on [DATE]. Resident #5 was admitted with multiple diagnoses which included: cerebral infarction (stroke), muscle wasting and atrophy, intellectual disabilities, hemiplegia (paralysis of a limb) and hemiparesis (weakness of a limb). Record review of Resident #5's care plan date initiated 10/02/2025 revealed The resident has actual impairment to skin integrity of the Right antecubital fossa r/t Coban wrap. Goal: the resident's minor skin injury of the right antecubital fossa will be healed by the next review date. Interventions: encourage good nutrition and hydration in order to promote healthier skin, follow facility protocols for treatment of injury, identify/document potential causative factors and eliminate/resolve where possible, monitor the site for infection for 72hours.Record review of Resident #5's MDS Quarterly dated 10/13/2025 revealed, Resident #5 had a BIMS score of 15 which indicated intact cognition. Additionally, Resident #5 needed setup/cleanup assistance with the majority of his ADLs. Resident #5 was not coded for major skin irregularity or wounds. Record review of Resident #5's progress notes from 09/17/2025 through 09/25/2025 revealed no mention or assessment of Resident #5's arm. Record review of Resident #5's progress note dated 09/26/2025 at 15:32 (3:32PM) the LMSW documented LMSW spoke to resident to follow up with him regarding the Coban wrap left on his forearm. During an interview and observation on 10/24/2025 at 11:38AM Resident #5 stated he recalled an incident where a bandage was left on his arm for days and felt tight, however he could not recall the date of the incident. Resident #5 stated he had no concerns about the dressing issue and verbalized no concerns. Upon initial observation, Resident #5 had no visible sign of skin irregularities on his arms. During a phone interview on 10/24/2025 at 12:47PM the local area advocate ([NAME]) stated she was notified by a family member regarding a complaint that Resident #5 had a dressing on his arm for roughly 8 days without any clinical staff member assessing underneath the dressing. The [NAME] stated when she arrived in the facility on either 9/24/2025 or 9/25/2025, she entered Resident #5's room and saw Resident #5 with a neutral color dressing to elbow, with red discoloration to the very same area. The [NAME] stated while she spoke to Resident #5, he never exhibited any sign or symptom of distress and was very pleasant.

LVN E stated in-hindsight she should have advocated to see what was under the bandage/dressing as not only part of her professional scope of practice but also to ensure there were no negative or immediate concerns for skin irregularities. LVN E stated her concern with Coban dressings was if the dressing was too tight, there could be a loss of blood circulation, skin irritation, and/or possible wound, but reiterated Resident #5 never expressed or exhibited any sign or symptoms of distress or concern. LVN E stated she should have conducted a more thorough head-to-toe assessment to ensure there were no concerning irregularities; however verbalized Resident #5 did not exhibit or express anything of a compromising nature regarding any skin irregularities. LVN E stated going forward; she will advocate in a more assertive manner when conducting a head-to-toe assessment as a precautionary intervention, to ensure the well-being of all her patients.
