F 0686 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 observations, interviews, and record reviews, the facility failed to ensure a resident did not develop pressure ulcers/injuries (PU/PIs) unless clinically unavoidable and that the facility provided care and services consistent with professional standards of practice to promote healing, prevent infection, and prevent new pressure ulcers/injuries from developing for 1 (Resident #1) of 4 residents reviewed for pressure ulcers/injuries. Residents Affected - Some 1. The facility failed to monitor early signs of a pressure injury (PI) to promote the prevention of pressure ulcer (PU) development to Resident #1's right medial foot and great toe. On 02/07/25, the hospice health aide reported a large blood blister on the right foot and a bruise to Resident #1's right medial foot and great toe to LVN D. LVN D reflected the blood blister on the Weekly Skin assessment dated [DATE]. Skin barrier cream was applied to the site(s) daily. On 03/02/25, the hospice RN assessed the site and ordered skin prep for application to the dried blister on Resident #1's right medial foot and great toe every shift (3 times a day [6A - 2P, 2P - 10P, and 10P - 6A]). On 03/18/25, the WMD was consulted to assess, evaluate, and treat Resident #1 for an unstageable (due to necrosis) pressure ulcer at the right medial foot and great toe. 2. The facility failed to monitor early signs of a pressure injury. On 02/26/25, the hospice health aide reported a purple pressure area on Resident #1's left hip to LVN E. LVN E reflected an intact reddened area to Resident #1's left hip on the Weekly Skin assessment dated [DATE]. The facility failed to perform a weekly skin assessment for Resident #1 on 03/06/25. On 03/09/25, LVN A completed a weekly skin assessment that indicated Resident #1 had an abrasion described as Eschar noted to left hip and abrasion/wound reopened right below the necrotic area . after Resident #1's RP called LVN A and ADON I to the room to look at a wound discovered on Resident #1's left hip. On 03/18/25, the WMD was consulted to assess, evaluate, and treat Resident #1 for an unstageable (due to necrosis) pressure ulcer to the left hip. An IJ was identified on 05/09/25. The IJ template was provided to the facility on [DATE] at 2:00 PM. While the IJ was removed on 05/09/25, the facility remained out of compliance at a scope of isolated and severity level of no actual harm with potential for more than minimal harm that is not immediate jeopardy due to the facility's need to complete in-service training and evaluate the effectiveness of the corrective systems. These failures could place residents admitted without wounds, to develop wounds, and placed at an (continued on next page) Any deficiency statement ending with an asterisk (*) denotes a deficiency which the institution may be excused from correcting providing it is determined that other safeguards provide sufficient protection to the patients.

RN B said that weekly skin assessments should be 7 days from the date of admission and the MAR would trigger the day the skin assessment was due and that was how she knew it needed to be completed. RN B said that she worked Thursday, 03/06/25, completed a skin assessment but did not know that she was supposed to complete a Weekly Skin Assessment form. RN B said that she performed the scheduled skin assessment on 03/13/25 and documented findings on the skin assessment form. RN B said that she documented the altered skin areas as the WCN described to the sacrum (Stage 2), left hip (Stage 2), and right foot (unstageable). During an interview on 04/07/25 at 2:43 PM, the WCN said that she performed wound care to residents with Stage 2 or larger wounds and performed rounds with the WMD every Tuesday. The WCN said that the charge nurses performed treatments to altered skin integrity like a rash, skin tear, or areas that required topical skin treatments. The WCN said that she or the WMD did not follow Resident #1 for wound care. The WCN said that she reviewed a weekly report that would reflect if a weekly skin assessment was not completed. The WCN said that she did not read the weekly skin assessment and expected the nurse to inform of any skin breakdown or changes observed during weekly skin assessments. The WCN said that the CNAs inspected the residents' skin for redness, bruising, or break in skin when assisting with showers, bed baths, and incontinent care. The WCN said that the CNAs should report any skin issues to the charge nurse. The WCN said that Resident #1 likely developed the pressure injury to the right foot because the heel protectors provided by hospice did not protect the whole foot. The WCN said that Resident #1 legs were contracted, and the feet pressed against each other. The WCN said that staff off-loaded pressure areas by turning and repositioning, with pillows, and position wedges. The WCN said that she became involved with Resident #1's skin management on or about 03/03/25, as reflected in Resident #1's progress notes, when she first learned about Resident #1's right foot in the morning meeting. The WCN said that she assessed and evaluated Resident #1's right foot that had discoloration and swelling. The WCN said that a purple or maroon discoloration could indicate a deep tissue pressure injury and could also present with a closed or ruptured blister.

F 0686 Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety Residents Affected - Some skin was not open. The WCN said that an immediate nursing intervention would be to prevent further damage and promote healing. The WCN said that staff were treating the area with skin prep and podus boots were applied to Resident #1's feet. The WCN reviewed the chart and said that she assessed and evaluated the discovered wound to Resident #1's left hip and notified the MD to obtain orders for treatment and a WMD consult on Monday, 03/10/25. During a telephone interview on 04/07/25 at 3:11 PM, the WMD said that he obtained permission from the RP before he performed surgical debridement to the wounds. The WMD said that the wounds overall condition was deteriorated to a degree but showed some progression with debridement and treatment. The WMD said that the wounds did not show any signs of infection. The WMD indicated that Resident #1 was a high risk for pressure ulcer development due to multiple disease processes, poor nutrition, and contractures. During an interview on 04/07/25 at 4:25 PM with ADON I said that once wounds were discovered, treatments were initiated on WMD rounds. An in-service was conducted related to turning and repositioning. ADON I said that Resident #1 received wound care every Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and PRN to right foot, left hip, and sacrum. ADON I did not recall when she first learned about wounds to Resident #1's hip and sacrum. ADON I said if she correctly recalled, the RP brought up concerns about the wound condition after RP removed dressing to Resident #1's left hip. The RP's said that the wound appeared to get worst and had a smell. ADON I said that she reassured the RP that the WCN was treating. ADON I denied the hip wound had an odor. ADON I did not recall the wound condition when she cleaned and covered with a dressing. During an interview on 04/18/25 at 3:34 PM, the DON said his expectation of skin management and pressure ulcer/injury prevention included weekly skin assessments to be completed every 7 days; CNAs to visualize the resident's skin on shower days and notify the charge nurse of any bruises, redness, sores, or any type of break in skin; off-loading and repositioning of residents as needed. The nurse must complete a weekly skin assessment form and initial the MAR that the skin assessment was completed. The DON said if a skin assessment was not document for one week, a resident's skin should still be checked during incontinent care, showers, and during random skin sweeps. The DON said that the discoloration to Resident #1's right foot/toe and left hip should have been monitored by the charge nurse for any changes or the need to notify the WCN. The DON said that ADON I ran weekly reports to determine if weekly skin assessments were completed. The National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel ([NPUAP], 2016) revised the definition and stages of pressure injury. Review of the new definition of suspected DTI is: Purple or maroon localized area of discolored intact skin or blood-filled blister due to damage of underlying soft tissue from pressure and/or shear. The area may be preceded by tissue that is painful, firm, mushy, boggy, warmer or cooler as compared to adjacent tissue. Further description is also given: Deep tissue injury may be difficult to detect in individuals with dark skin tones. Evolution may include a thin blister over a dark wound bed. The wound may further evolve and become covered by thin eschar. Evolution may be rapid exposing additional layers of tissue even with optimal treatment.

F 0686 - Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety Stage 1 Pressure Injury: Non-blanchable erythema of intact skin Residents Affected - Some Intact skin with a localized area of non-blanchable erythema (redness). In darker skin tones, the PI may appear with persistent red, blue, or purple hues. The presence of blanchable erythema or changes in sensation, temperature, or firmness may precede visual changes. Color changes of intact skin may also indicate a deep tissue PI. Deep Tissue Pressure Injury (DTPI): Persistent non-blanchable deep red, maroon, or purple discoloration Intact skin with localized area of persistent non-blanchable deep red, maroon, purple discoloration due to damage of underlying soft tissue. This area may be preceded by tissue that is painful, firm, mushy, boggy, warmer, or cooler as compared to adjacent tissue. These changes often precede skin color changes and discoloration may appear differently in darkly pigmented skin. This injury results from intense and/or prolonged pressure and shear forces at the bone-muscle interface. The wound may evolve rapidly to reveal the actual extent of tissue injury or may resolve without tissue loss. If necrotic tissue, subcutaneous tissue, granulation tissue, fascia, muscle, or other underlying structures are visible, this indicates a full thickness pressure ulcer. Once a deep tissue injury opens to an ulcer, reclassify the ulcer into the appropriate stage. Do not use DTPI to describe vascular, traumatic, neuropathic, or dermatologic conditions.
