In an interview on 02/15/2025 from 10:14 a.m. to 10:37 a.m., Wound Care Nurse LVN A stated she would provide wound care to residents Monday through Friday and the weekend supervisor or floor nurse would provide wound care on the weekends. Wound Care Nurse LVN A stated she provided wound care for Resident #3 on 11/04/2024 since it was a Monday and she probably forgot to check off that she had provided the wound care. LVN A said the wound care provided to Resident #3 on 11/02/2024 would have been done by the nurse or weekend supervisor since it was a Saturday. LVN A stated she provided wound care to Resident #3 on 12/11/2024, 12/12/2024, and 12/30/2024 and she probably forgot to document it was completed. Wound Care Nurse LVN A stated the harm of not documenting the wound care was provided is that it would not show the treatment was done. LVN A said she thought the reasons why it was not documented were because she was moving too fast and because she had clicked it was done and did not sign off in the electronic clinical record before she closed her computer. In an interview on 02/15/2025 at 12:22 p.m., the DON stated RN B was Resident #3's nurse on 11/02/2024. In a telephone interview on 02/15/2025 at 2:33 p.m., RN B stated she was Resident #3's nurse on 11/02/2024 and she provided wound care to the resident but was not certain if she had documented the wound care was completed. RN B said the harm of not documenting that wound care was completed was that it would not show the wound care was completed and it would look like the wound care was not done. In an interview on 02/15/2025 at 3:06 p.m. to 3:18 p.m., the DON stated wound care should be documented in the clinical record after it was provided to the resident and the harm of not documenting could result in other staff not knowing the wound care had been provided. In an interview on 02/15/2025 at 3:21 p.m., the Administrator stated he could not think of any harm that could result from wound care not being documented in the resident's clinical record.
