F 0656 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few stated that MDS nurses were trained on when enhanced barrier precautions were required and that residents were assessed and identified based on their clinical conditions, including the presence of wounds, catheters, or PEG (feeding tube) tubes. The MDS nurse stated that enhanced barrier precautions should be incorporated into the resident's comprehensive care plan; however, he was unable to explain why the precautions were not included. He stated that staff were informed of enhanced barrier precautions through signage posted outside the resident's room and through review of the resident's electronic medical record. The MDS nurse stated that failure to include enhanced barrier precautions or failing to timely revise the comprehensive care plan placed the resident at risk for harm, including an increased risk of infection.In an interview conducted on 01/08/2026 at 12:34 PM, the ADON stated that the MDS nurse was responsible for completing care plans; however, the facility was now transitioning to a team-based approach. She stated that infection control was everyone's responsibility, with primary responsibility resting with nursing staff. The ADON stated that residents with foreign objects, including catheters, G -tubes(device for access to stomach for feeding), tracheostomies (surgical hole through neck to help with breathing), wounds, or IVs , are assessed for the need for enhanced barrier precautions upon admission, at the time of any new physician order, or upon a change in condition as identified through the ADL assessment. She stated that when enhanced barrier precautions were identified, they should be incorporated into the resident's comprehensive care plan. The ADON stated that nursing staff had access to resident information through the facility's electronic medical record system. She stated that if enhanced barrier precautions were not timely incorporated into the resident's comprehensive care plan, the resident could be at risk for infection or bacterial transmission. The ADON stated she was unable to explain why the enhanced barrier precautions were not previously included in the care plans; however, she stated that all care plans were updated approximately 30 minutes prior to the interview. The ADON stated the facility had implemented a new care plan library and that the enhanced barrier precaution information should now be reflected in the residents' comprehensive care plans.In an interview conducted on 01/08/2026 at 12:54 PM, the DON stated that responsibility for updating comprehensive care plans currently lies with all members of the interdisciplinary team. She stated that the MDS Coordinator was new to the role and transitioned into the MDS position approximately one month ago. The DON stated that residents with indwelling devices, including IVs, catheters, or wounds, are assessed for the need for enhanced barrier precautions to prevent infection. She stated that enhanced barrier precautions should be included in each affected resident's comprehensive care plan. The DON acknowledged that the enhanced barrier precaution interventions were missed on the care plans and stated she was not going to lie about the omission. The DON stated that nursing staff, including nurse aides, were informed of enhanced barrier precautions through in-services, signage posted outside residents' rooms, and notifications within the facility's electronic medical record system. The DON stated that the potential harm or adverse outcome of failing to timely revise the resident's comprehensive care plan was that staff or others could introduce germs to the resident, placing the resident at increased risk for infection.In an interview conducted on 01/08/2026 at 1:49 PM, the ADM stated she had been employed at the facility since March 2025. She stated her expectation was that comprehensive care plans were revised in a timely manner when residents' needs change and that revisions are completed in accordance with facility policy. The ADM stated that a new baseline care plan is initiated upon admission and that the comprehensive care plan was completed within the required timeframe.

F 0686 Provide appropriate pressure ulcer care and prevent new ulcers from developing. 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 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 for one of three residents reviewed for pressure ulcers. (Resident #46) The facility failed to ensure Resident #46's unavoidable sacral unstageable pressure ulcer (a severe type of wound where the full depth cannot be assessed due to the presence of necrotic tissue, slough or eschar covering the wound base) treatment was done per physician orders. These failures could cause severe pain, and lead to systemic infections for residents that have or are at risk for pressure ulcers.Findings: Review of Resident #46's face sheet dated 01/08/2026 reflected she was admitted on [DATE] and readmitted on [DATE] with the following diagnoses unspecified intracranial injury, schizophrenia, Diabetes Mellitus Type II and intellectual disabilities. Review of Resident #46's Significant change in status assessment dated [DATE] reflected that she was assessed to have a BIMS score of one indicating severe cognitive impairment. Resident #46 was further assessed to be dependent on staff for all ADLs. Resident #46 was assessed to be at risk of developing pressure ulcers/injuries and was assessed to have unhealed pressure ulcers/injuries. Resident #46 was further assessed to have one unstageable pressure ulcer which was present upon admission/reentry. Resident #46 was also assessed to be on hospice care. Review of Resident #46's comprehensive care plan reflected a focus are dated 11/24/2025 which reflected I am receiving hospice care related to a terminal illness, and my goal is to focus on comfort, dignity, and quality of life during my remaining time. Further review reflected a focus area dated 12/05/2025 I have an unstageable pressure ulcer to the coccyx related to immobility. Interventions included Administer my medication and treatment as ordered. Review of Resident #46's Wound Assessment Report dated 12/26/2025 reflected the wound was classified as an unstageable end of life skin failure to the sacrum with measurements of 9.40cm x 4.8 cm x 0.4cm. The wound was classified as stable with 30% slough and 30% eschar. Treatment was documented as Cleanse with wound cleanser use Dakins (a dilute solution of sodium hypochlorite (bleach) moistened fluffed gauze and cover with superabsorbent dressing. (the order did not include an order for Santyl (an enzymatic debridement agent). Review of Resident #46's consolidated physician orders reflected an order dated 12/27/2025 Clean sacrum with wound cleanser pat dry apply Dakins moistened fluffed gauze to base of wound secure with superabsorbent dressing until resolved two times a day for wound care may use normal saline if Dakins unavailable. Observation on 01/07/2026 at 9:55 AM revealed LVN A outside of Resident #46's room to gather supplies for wound care. LVN A got a bottle of wound cleanser, a tube of Santyl, a bottle of betadine and two bordered gauze dressings. LVN A took all items into Resident #46's room in the original packaging and placed them on a towel on Resident #46's overbed table. LVN A removed a dressing from Resident #46's sacrum that was dated 01/06/2025. (The dressing was a bordered gauze dressing. No wound packing was removed from the wound.) Resident #46's sacral pressure ulcer had substantial depth > (greater than) 0.4 cm with undermining (erosion beneath the wound edges, leading to a larger wound area with a smaller visible opening) from 12 o'clock to 3 o'clock, the wound bed was covered in slough. Resident #46's wound edges were necrotic; and the peri wound was red and excoriated (missing top layer of skin). LVN A cleaned the wound edges and peri wound (refers to tissue surrounding a wound, extending up to 4cm outside the wound edge) with wound cleanser. LVN A then retrieved the tube of Santyl and using her finger as an applicator applied the ointment to the wound edges and peri wound.

LVN A took all the treatment supplies she brought into the room back to her chart. In an interview on 01/07/2026 at 10:15 am LVN A stated she did not pack the wound because the facility was out of Dakins' solution. LVN A further stated they had been out of the solution since 01/06/2026. When asked why she did not use normal saline as a substitute she stated Resident #46's order stated to just put a dry dressing on if the Dakins solution was not available. She stated she did Resident #46's treatment yesterday the same and stated she did not pack it because she did not have the Dakins solution In an interview on 01/07/2026 at 11:06 am the Wound Care NP stated Resident #46's sacral wound was an end of life skin failure possibly a Kennedy ulcer (is a rapidly developing skin wound that typically appears on the sacrum during the final stages of life). Resident #46's NP stated the wounds were unavoidable due to the number of things she has going on, and the resident was on hospice. Resident #46's NP stated the facility should be packing the wound. He stated he wanted them to use Dakins solution but if it was unavailable using normal saline or wound cleanser moistened gauze would be an appropriate substitute. He stated that by not packing the wound it could cause accumulation of fluid which could lead to structural failure, infection or abscess formation. Resident #46's NP stated he expected the facility nurses to do the appropriate treatments. He stated they should not be using Santyl, that the order was changed after his 12/26/2025 visit. He stated the facility nurses should never apply Santyl to the wound edges or healthy skin because it would cause skin breakdown and should only be used on a wound bed with slough. He further stated the nurses should be using a superabsorbent dressing like Gentell (an Opti foam dressing that pulls the exudate away from the wound) to prevent the peri wound from declining. Resident #46's NP stated he did not expect Resident #46's wound to heal but appropriate treatment needed to be done to prevent setbacks. In a follow-up interview on 01/07/206 at 11:20 AM LVN A stated she should have packed Resident #46's wound. She stated she went over the treatment with her DON and stated she went back down to Resident #46's room and packed her wound with normal saline gauze. She stated that the times she had seen Santyl being used that it was applied to the peri wound she did not know that it was not to be applied to normal skin. She stated the order for Santyl was not on the treatment order but was listed under her medications and that was why she used it. She stated she used the boarded gauze dressing because she thought that was what was ordered. In an interview on 01/07/2026 at 11:30 AM the DON stated Resident #46's sacral pressure ulcer treatment should have been done as ordered. She stated the order did reflect that normal saline could be used. She further stated everyone should know that Santyl was a debridement agent and should not be used on healthy skin or the peri wound because it could cause skin breakdown. She stated by staff doing the wrong treatment it could cause delayed healing, decline in the wound or infection. In an interview on 01/07/2026 at 11:35 AM the RNC stated the Dakins solution was ordered Friday (01/02/2026). She stated LVN A was provided a wound competency prior to doing wounds but would be taken off treatment and would be trained. She stated that Santyl should not be used on healthy skin or on the peri wound. She stated she expected the nursing staff to follow physician orders while performing wound care to ensure wounds do not decline.
