Provide appropriate pressure ulcer care and prevent new ulcers from developing.
Level of Harm - Immediate
jeopardy to resident health or
safety
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to ensure residents receive care consistent with
professional standards of practice, to prevent pressure ulcers unless the individual's clinical condition
demonstrates that they were unavoidable; and once developed, failed to ensure necessary treatment and
services to promote healing and prevent new ulcers from developing for three of six residents reviewed for
pressure ulcers. (Resident #52, #46, and #2)
Residents Affected - Few
A) The facility failed to ensure Resident #52 who was admitted to the facility without pressure ulcers and
was low risk for the development of pressure ulcers did not developed a Stage II pressure ulcer that
progressed to a Stage IV pressure ulcer in 26 days. Once developed the facility failed to provide wound
care within professional standards regarding infection control and wound cleaning techniques.
B) The facility failed to do weekly Skin assessments or develop a plan of care for Resident #46 who was
found with a Stage III pressure on 08/16/2021 which progressed to a Stage IV pressure ulcer. Once
developed the facility failed to provide wound care within professional standards regarding infection control.
Non-Immediate Jeopardy
C) The facility failed to ensure RN A followed standard precautions during wound care for Resident #2's
Stage IV sacral pressure ulcer and Stage IV right and left ischial pressure ulcers when he failed to perform
hand hygiene throughout the procedure, sterilize his scissors or use a cleaning technique on the wounds
that did not contaminate the pressure ulcers.
These failures resulted in an Immediate Jeopardy (IJ) situation on 10/06/2021. While the IJ was removed
on 10/08/2021, the facility remained out of compliance at a severity level of actual harm at a scope of
pattern due to staff needing more time to monitor the plan of removal for effectiveness.
These failures placed the residents at risk for developing worsening pressure ulcers, Cellulitis (skin
infection), Osteomyelitis (infection of the bone), Sepsis (infection of the blood), severe pain or death.
Finding Include:

Review of Resident #52's Braden scaled for assessment of pressure ulcer risk revealed assessments
completed weekly between 08/30/21 - 09/23/21 noted Resident #52 to be at low risk of pressure ulcer
development.
In an interview on 10/03/21 at 11:20 AM CNA E stated it was difficult to respond to call lights when there
are only 2-3 aides working the whole facility. She said they have been short staffed for several months, but it
is improving. She said they try to get to everyone as fast as they can but when you were showering a
resident, you could not leave and if there is not someone else available on your hallway, residents had to
wait.
In an interview on 10/04/21 at 3:30 PM DON stated Resident #52's pressure ulcer was facility acquired.
DON stated she spoke with Wound Care Physician and did not believe the pressure ulcer had declined to a
stage IV pressure ulcer. DON stated the Treatment Nurse does the initial skin assessment upon admission
and if the Treatment Nurse was not available, the charge nurse would complete it. DON said weekly skin
assessments were completed by the charge nurse on the day the assessment was due. DON said she did
not know of any issues Resident #52 had with being able to turn and reposition herself in bed. She said
Resident #52 was weak upon admission and may have needed some help but could assist in turning
herself. She said the Treatment Nurse was involved with pressure ulcers usually at stage II and floor staff
complete treatment for all other skin issues like skin tears. She stated wounds

are referred to Treatment Nurse the same day or next day for treatment. She confirmed the wound
confirmed in progress notes as stage II for Resident #52 on 09/08/21 should have been referred to the
Treatment Nurse that day or the next day. She said the Treatment Nurse was out with COVID in September
and that is probably why the first weekly ulcer assessment and treatment was not completed until 09/16/21.
DON did not know how Resident #52 had a stage II ulcer on 09/08/21, a stage 3 ulcer on 09/16/21 and a
stage IV ulcer on 09/24/21. DON said incontinence might be an issue, but Resident #52 was confirmed to
have a catheter for urinary incontinence. She said the incontinence with the Braden scale of pressure ulcer
risk and resident having a current pressure ulcer should not be there. If a resident has a stage III-IV
pressure and it was facility acquired, it would make them more than a low risk for pressure ulcers. She said
a low air mattress is ordered for a stage III or greater pressure ulcer. All residents have a pressure relieving
mattress upon admission.
Observation on 10/05/2021 at 8:41 AM of wound care for Resident # 52's coccyx pressure ulcer revealed
the Treatment Nurse used her clean gloved hand to move the resident's adult brief out of the way, then
cleaned the ulcer with gauze using the same gloved hand. She then pushed calcium alginate into the
wound with the same gloved hand that touched the brief.
In an interview on 10/05/2021 at 2:55 PM with the Treatment Nurse stated I was trained to clean wounds
from inside to out. She stated I don't remember touching the brief on (Resident # 52.)
In an interview on 10/05/21 at 12:05 PM the Wound Care Physician stated he had only seen Resident #52
once on 09/24/2021 and debrided her pressure ulcer. He confirmed Resident #52 had no prior history of a
stage III or IV pressure ulcer that he knew of or had treated. He was not sure why it was documented that
she had a previous pressure ulcer. He said the pressure ulcer was a stage IV after debridement and with
the resident being so new to the facility, he assumed she was admitted with the pressure ulcer. When
informed she was admitted with no pressure ulcer, he confirmed the pressure ulcer did form quickly and
declined quickly. When asked if he thought this was avoidable for the resident, he could not say without
reviewing her record. He confirmed the resident did not have any condition that would make her more likely
to form a pressure ulcer.
In an interview on 10/06/21 at 12:11 PM, Resident #52's Primary Care Physician stated Resident #52 was
essentially bed bound upon admission and therefore spent a lot of time sitting or lying in bed which resulted
in the pressure ulcer. When asked if the pressure ulcer could have been avoided if Resident #52 was
turned frequently as ordered every two hours, she said yes. She said turning and repositioning would have
likely reduced the likelihood of a pressure ulcer. She said now Resident #52 was stronger and able to
reposition herself but at admission to the facility she would have required staff assistance.
In an interview on 10/05/21 at 2:10 PM Resident #52 stated she required assistance from staff to reposition
and move in bed or to transfer from the bed to a chair. She said she was better at turning herself now, but
when she was first admitted she was weak and needed help. She said she does not remember them
turning and repositioning her frequently or even once per day when she was first admitted . She said she
did not know she was supposed to turn or reposition in bed or in her wheelchair to prevent the pressure
ulcer from forming or declining. She stated her daughter bought her a wedge pillow so she could shift her
weight while she was lying in bed. She said sometimes the call light response was slow if the staff were
busy.
In an interview on 10/05/21 at 2:35 PM the Treatment Nurse stated she returned from leave on 09/16/21
and assessed Resident #52. She said it was the first time she saw the pressure ulcer and

identified it as a stage III pressure ulcer. She stated Resident #52 did not have an underlying reason for the
fast development and decline of the pressure ulcer. When asked what could have caused the fast
development and decline of Resident #52's pressure ulcer, she stated it was likely caused from lack of
repositioning or turning Resident #52 in bed as ordered every two hours. She confirmed the facility was
short staffed and aides did not always have the time to reposition residents every two hours.
Review of Resident #52's point of contact documentation of repositioning/turning dated September 2021
revealed Resident #52 to not have reposition/turning documentation for 24 out of 30 days on at least one
shift per day.
In an interview on 10/05/2021 at 3:00 PM the DON stated the facility was short staffed over the last month.
She stated normally five aides were scheduled during the daytime shift and they frequently worked with
only two to three aides. She confirmed it would have been difficult for the aides to turn and reposition
residents as required every two hours.

Review of Resident #46's Face Sheet reflected she was an [AGE] year-old female admitted to the facility on
[DATE] with diagnoses of Alzheimer's disease, sepsis, muscle weakness, dysphagia (difficulty swallowing)
and difficulty in walking.
Review of Resident #46's Quarterly MDS dated [DATE] reflected she was rarely or never understood and
was totally dependent on two-person physical assist for bed mobility (moving to and from a lying position,
turning side to side and positioning body) and transfers.
Review of Resident #46's Care plan dated 04/14/21 reflected The resident has potential for pressure ulcer
development. Interventions: The resident needs assistance to turn/reposition at least every two hours.
Review of a weekly skin assessment for Resident #46 completed on 07/16/21 reflected she did not have
any pressure, venous, arterial or diabetic ulcers.
Review of a weekly skin assessment for Resident #46 completed by the facility's Treatment nurse on
08/16/21 reflected she had a pressure ulcer.
Review for weekly skin assessments for Resident #46 reflected no skin assessment were completed
between 07/16/21 and 08/16/21.
Review of a Weekly Ulcer Assessment for Resident #46 completed on 8/16/21 by the facility Treatment
Nurse reflected discovery of a new Stage III pressure ulcer to her coccyx with slough (yellow or white tissue
adhered to the wound) and 25% necrotic (dead) tissue. Stage III pressure ulcer involves the full thickness of
the skin and may extend into the fatty tissue layer. The pressure injury was not present on admission. The
Stage III pressure ulcer to her coccyx measured 2.5 cm length, 0.5 cm width and <0.1 cm deapth.
Review of a Weekly Ulcer Assessment for Resident #46 completed on 09/30/21 reflected her coccyx ulcer
had progressed to a Stage IV pressure ulcer. According to the National Institutes of Health website
(nih.gov) in an article dated January 2015, a stage IV pressure ulcer is the is the most severe

type of pressure ulcer. The skin is severely damaged, and the surrounding tissue begins to die. The
characteristics are: full thickness skin loss with extensive destruction, tissue necrosis (death) or damage to
muscle, bone or supporting structures.
Observation on 10/05/2021 at 8:14 AM for wound care on Resident # 46's coccyx revealed the Treatment
Nurse touched the resident's unclean bedding with her clean gloved hand and did not sanitize her hands or
change gloves before she cleaned the wound. She used gauze to clean across the wound and dried all
over, working from potentially contaminated areas of skin outside of the open wound.
In an interview on 10/05/2021 at 2:55 PM with the Treatment Nurse stated I was trained to clean wounds
from inside to out. I didn't realize I touched bedding before touching the wound on (Resident # 46.)
In an interview on 10/05/2021 at 11:45 AM the DON stated the skin assessment shower sheets which had
areas for staff to note alterations in skin integrity, was a new assessment she just initiated and did not have
any for Resident #46 for 07/16/21 through 08/16/21.
In an interview on 10/05/21 at 12:05 PM the Wound Care Physician stated the first time he examined
Resident #46 was on 09/24/2021. The Wound Care Physician stated he did not know why the resident was
not referred to him sooner. He stated the facility should be assessing the resident's skin frequently.
In an interview on 10/05/21 at 1:13 PM Resident #46's PCP was asked his expectations for repositioning
residents to prevent skin breakdown stated, he stated With folks who are confined to bed, they need to be
more vigilant in moving and turning them. They need to check their vulnerable areas and keep them clean.
In an interview on 10/05/2021 at 1:54 PM with the Treatment Nurse who stated When I returned from leave,
someone told me Resident #46 had not been assessed in a while. The CNAs are supposed to come to me
or the charge nurse with any skin issues. I found (Resident # 46's) pressure ulcer.
In an interview on 10/05/21 at 3:35 PM with a CNA who chose to remain anonymous and was asked about
having enough staff to turn and change residents stated, We were definitely understaffed in July, August
and September. It makes everything harder and the wait times longer for residents.
In an interview on 10/05/21 at 4:00 PM the ADON stated she and LVN B were Charge Nurses on Resident
#46's hall during July and August 2021 when her weekly skin assessments were not completed from
07/16/2021 until 08/16/2021. On 08/16/2021 a stage three pressure ulcer was discovered on her coccyx.
The facility ADON stated the charge nurses were responsible for doing the weekly skin assessments and
there should always be a weekly skin assessment.
In an interview on 10/06/21 at 8:40 AM LVN M, who worked at the facility and quit in September 2021,
stated she did not remember if she was scheduled to do Resident #46's weekly skin assessments. She
stated if it popped up on her schedule, she would do it. She stated if she did not do it the ADON (who is the
current DON) would let her know the next morning. LVN M stated she did not recall any skin problems with
Resident #46.

assessments were completed, she stated, Yes, If I saw that it (skin assessment) was flagged on my
computer and I had time to look at the computer, I would. I was working 12-hour shifts on the floor and
always doing patient care. There was no opportunity to do the ADON job or ensure staff were completing
the skin assessments. The DON further stated regarding issues on staffing We hire them, and they never
show up or they show up and then stay for two days and quit. The pay is not competitive. We've lost four
aides to (another facility in town.)
Residents Affected - Few
In an interview on 10/06/21 at 4:00 PM CNA F stated We try to get to the residents as soon as we can. We
saw redness on some of their skin, (Resident's #46). She stated Resident #46 could not turn herself. The
residents need more attention which means we need more staff. Last night was the first time I've seen six
staff. I've never seen that before.
In an interview on 10/07/21 at 10:49 AM CNA N stated when she saw Resident # 46's coccyx area on a
Thursday (08/12/2021) it was red with a white dot in the middle and she applied barrier cream. I told a
nurse but I'm not sure who. She stated she was gone for a three-day weekend and when she returned on
Monday, 08/16/2021, there was a hole in Resident # 46's coccyx. She stated, We were short staffed.
In an interview on 10/07/21 at 10:52 AM with LVN B who stated, We were understaffed when Resident #46
got her pressure ulcer, so I don't know if she was turned or kept clean. She stated RN A mainly did the
wounds during that time on the weekends and sometimes during the week. During the nighttime we don't
have enough staff. There's only 2 or 3 for the whole place.

Review of Resident #2's face sheet dated 10/04/2021 revealed resident #2 was a [AGE] year-old male
admitted to the facility 04/27/20 with a diagnosis of paraplegia, left above the knee leg amputation, anemia,
non-pressure chronic ulcer of back, neuropathic bladder and osteomyelitis of vertebra, sacral and
sacrococcygeal region.
Review of Resident #2's comprehensive care plan dated 08/09/21 revealed resident #2 to require care for
an ostomy, treatment with an anticoagulant, wound care for stage 4 pressure ulcer to sacrum, require pain
medication, an indwelling catheter and history of major infection.
Review of resident #2's Quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE] revealed resident #2 to have a BIMS
score of 14, required two-person assist with bed mobility and transfer from bed to chair, had an indwelling
catheter and colostomy, Stage IV pressure ulcer and required a prevention plan for reducing risk of
pressure ulcers.
Observation and interview on 10/04/21 at 11:00 AM revealed RN A in Resident #2's room to preform
wound care. RN A already had the treatment field set up in room when surveyor arrived. RN A donned
gloves outside at the treatment cart and entered the room. RN A did not perform hand hygiene prior to
donning his gloves. RN A then removed the dressing from residents left inside knee. RN A stated the
wound was from hardware from his knee replacement penetrating the skin and causing it to open. After
removing the dressing RN A pushed around on the wound with his gloved hands and reached for the gauze
from the table. With the same gloves' RN A cleaned around the area, cleaning across the wound. RN A
then reached for a spray bottle (skin prep spray) on his field and sprayed it on the gloves and applied it to
the wound with his gloves. RN A then retrieved a dressing from the field and applied it to the wound. RN A

touching the wounds with is gloves (he did get a new gauze for each wound) he then applied hydrogel to
the wounds with his gloves going from one wound to another. RN A then applied the collagen powder with
his gloves patting it into the pressure ulcers going from one pressure ulcer to another. RN A without
changing gloves or performing hand hygiene applied clean dressings to coccyx wound with the dressing
reaching only to middle of pressure ulcer and with the tape being applied directly on the open pressure
ulcer. RN A then applied a foam dressing to right ischial with the tape being on the coccyx pressure ulcer.
RN A did the same with the left ischial pressure ulcer. RN A then stated he needed to get another brief, so

Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Have a registered nurse on duty 8 hours a day; and select a registered nurse to be the director of nurses on
a full time basis.
Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure a registered nurse served as the Director
of Nursing on a full-time basis for one of one facility reviewed for registered nurse coverage in that:
Residents Affected - Many
The facility failed to ensure the Director of Nursing did not serve as a charge nurse only when the facility
has an average daily occupancy of 60 or fewer residents preventing her from providing supervision and
oversight of the staff for 6 of 30 days in September 2021.
These failures placed residents at risk for not having their nursing and medical needs met.
Finding include:
Review of the average daily census of the facility from 07/14/21 to 10/03/21 reflected the average census of
the facility was 65.
Review of the facility's staff schedule dated September 2021 revealed the DON worked as a charge nurse
for six out of 30 days. The average daily census for the facility during September was 65.
In an interview on 10/06/21 at 9:30 AM the RNC stated he had been in his position for 3 years. The RNC
stated the old DON would cover shifts on the floor if they were short. The RNC stated they started a
recruiting and retention plan on 08/20/2021 that included HR posting positions on hiring sites and face
book. The plan included the administrative nurses (ADON and DON) filling in and working the floor. The
RNC stated that PCC would give the alerts to the administrative nurses when assessments were not being
done.
In an interview on 10/06/21 at 9:33 AM the DON stated she had been in her position for 3 weeks. She
stated the facility has reached out to agencies and the facility has two contracts with staffing agencies, but
they are never able to get anyone. She stated they were able to get a staff member once but then they
called in. The DON stated she is aware of the staff storages but was not aware the skin assessments were
not being done. She stated the ADON assist her with oversight on this, but she is working the floor most
days. She stated PCC will give her clinical alerts when things are not being done but she has worked on the
floor almost every day except for this week even working night shift and has not had time to do audits or
check that assessments are being done. She stated she was absolutely not able to give 40 hours a week to
the DON position or DON responsibilities.
Review of the facility's Job Description for the Director of Nursing dated 2014 reflected .Accountable for
nursing compliance, excellence, and delivery of resident care services in adherence with the Company,
local, state and federal regulations .Mange nursing staff through appropriate hiring, training, evaluation,
assignment and delegation of duties .Augment floor staffing if needed . Review and ensure proper resident
charting and procedure documentation .Train and develop nursing staff to achieve positive resident
outcome .
The facility did not provide a policy regarding the DON working the floor when the census was over 60
residents prior to exit.

carts. The ADON goes through the med carts and does med audits.
In an interview on 10/06/21 at 9:33 AM the DON stated she had been in her position for 3 weeks. She
stated the ADON assists her with oversight on this. She has worked on the floor almost every day except
for this week even working night shift and has not had time to do audits. She stated she was not able to

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to establish and maintain an infection prevention
and control program designed to provide a safe, sanitary and comfortable environment and to help prevent
the development and transmission of communicable diseases and infections and follow accepted national
standards for three of six Residents (Resident #2, #52 and #46) reviewed for pressure ulcers wound care.
