Residents Affected - Few 1.The facility failed to perform complete and accurate skin assessments for Resident #1, following LVN A's skin assessment on 11/06/24 which revealed moisture associated skin damage to Resident #1's buttocks. These failures placed residents with pressure wounds at an unnecessary risk of complications such as pain, acquiring new wounds, worsening of existing wounds, and infection. Findings included: Review of Resident #1's face sheet on 02/08/24 revealed an [AGE] year-old female admitted to the facility on [DATE].

Further MDS revealed Resident #1 required partial assistance-helper does less than half the effort. Helper lifts, holds, or supports trunk and limbs, but provides less than half the effort for rolling left to right to roll from lying on back to left to right and return to lying on her back while in the bed. MDS also revealed Resident #1 required a manual wheelchair and was occasionally incontinent and had an indwelling catheter for urine. MDS did not reflect BIMS score for cognitive. Further review of Resident #1's Discharge MDS Assessment indicated Resident #1 did not have one or more unhealed pressure ulcers/injuries.
