Immediately tell the resident, the resident's doctor, and a family member of situations (injury/decline/room,
etc.) that affect the resident.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on,
interview and record review the facility failed to immediately inform the resident, consult with the resident's
physician, notify, consistent with his or her authority, the resident representative when there was a
significant change in the resident's physical, mental, or psychosocial status for 1 of 1 resident (Resident #1)
reviewed for notification of changes.
The facility failed to notify Resident #1's attending physician when an injury of unknown origin was
discovered on Resident #1.
This deficient practice could place residents at risk of not having their physician informed when there was a
change in condition resulting in a delay in medical intervention and decline in health.
Findings include:
Record review of Resident #1's Care Plan reflected a [AGE] year-old female. She was admitted to the
facility on [DATE]. The Care Plan was initialed on 12/30/24 for Wound Management of the lower abdomen.
Resident #1 had diagnoses which included constipation (a condition in which there is difficulty in emptying
the bowels, usually associated with hardened feces.), hypertension (a condition in which the blood vessels
have persistently raised pressure), gastro-esophageal reflux disease without esophagitis (a condition where
acid or other contents flow back up from the stomach with no signs of damage to the esophagus) , nausea
with vomiting, localized edema (a condition in which there is swelling due to excess fluid to one specific
area of the body), gastrointestinal hemorrhage (a condition that covers all forms of bleeding in the
gastrointestinal tract), unspecified open wound to the left lower leg, malignant neoplasm of unspecified
kidney (cancerous tumor of the kidney), unspecified diastolic (congestive) heart failure (When your left
heart ventricle is stiff, it doesn't relax properly between heartbeats), unspecified atrial fibrillation (irregular
heart rhythm), unspecified dementia without behavioral disturbance (a condition where a person
experiences confusion or mild cognitive impairment that cannot be clearly diagnosed as a specific type of
dementia.), psychotic disturbance (cluster of symptoms, not an illness), mood disturbance (characterized
by persistent and intense sadness, elation, or anger.), anxiety (feeling of worry, nervousness, or unease,
typically about an imminent event or something with an uncertain outcome:), morbid (severe) obesity due to
excess calories (excessive and unhealthy accumulation of body fat), pulmonary embolism without acute cor
pulmonale (blockage in one of the pulmonary arteries in the lungs, usually caused by blood clots that travel
to the lungs from the deep veins in the legs (deep vein thrombosis), diverticulitis of intestine (inflammation
of irregular bulging pouches in the wall of the large intestine), pneumonia (lung inflammation caused by
bacterial or viral infection), dysphagia (difficulty swallowing).

Record review of Resident #1's Annual MDS (Minimum Data Sheet) Assessment, dated 01/20/2024,
reflected Resident #1 had a BIMS (Brief Interview for Mental Status Test) score of 10, which indicated
moderate cognitive impairment. Resident #1 was assessed to require assistance with ADLs (Activities of
Daily Living) which included the following: transfers, personal hygiene, showers, and dressing.
Record review on 1/31/25 of TULIP (Texas Unified Licensure Information Portal) reflected the facility did not
report the injury of unknown origin for the wound that was discovered on 12/27/24.
Record review of Resident #1's electronic medical records reflected Resident #1 had a progress note,
dated 12/27/2024 at 6:39 PM, entered by LVN (Licensed Vocational Nurse) A. The progress note reflected
there was a concern made by the family about the resident's care. LVN (Licensed Vocational Nurse) A
documented there was an open wound to the groin area. The wound was cleansed with normal saline, pat
dry, and had dressing applied. LVN (Licensed Vocational Nurse) A also documented the wound would be
monitored.
Record review of Resident #1's Skin Assessment, dated 12/27/2024, revealed that Resident #1 did not
have a wound to the lower abdominal/groin area when the skin asssessment was performed at 3:38 PM.
Record review of a photograph taken of Resident #1's wound revealed the wound was consistent with that
of a laceration and not of a pressure/moisture related injury.
Interview on 1/31/2025 at 9:40 AM with Director of Nursing B revealed he was very familiar with Resident
#1 because he did rounds with her every day. He stated staff were trained to notify the administrator,
director of nursing, physician, and responsible party if they found a wound. He stated there was no need to
report this incident to HHSC because it was not something they thought was an injury of unknown origin
because it was assumed to be a moisture related incident. The facility had an open order for moisture
related incidents from the wound care doctor. DON (Director of Nursing) B stated the wound care doctor
was notified by LVN (Licensed Vocational Nurse) A of the wound to Resident #1's groin area and that
should satisfy reporting requirements even if the primary care physician was not notified of the wound to
Resident #1's groin/abdominal.
Interview on 1/31/2025 at 12:30 PM with CNA (Certified Nurse Assistant) C revealed she did not know how
or why Resident #1 had a wound because she wasn't a resident she was assigned to take care of. She
remembered Resident #1's family member yelling in the hallway for help. She stated LVN (Licensed
Vocational Nurse) A asked her to assist him treating the wound. She stated the wound was small and they
treated it with normal saline. She stated the wound wasn't bleeding but it looked like a clean cut. She stated
LVN (Licensed Vocational Nurse) A called the physician and got an order right away.
Interview on 1/31/2025 at 1:59 PM with Physician D revealed neither the facility nor family brought the
wound to her attention. She stated she remembered being notified by LVN (Licensed Vocational Nurse) A of
Resident #1 having lower abdominal pain but specified the LVN (Licensed Vocational Nurse) only contacted
her to tell her about a hemorrhoid bleeding. She stated she did not know of any injury to Resident #1's groin
area. She stated she should have been contacted if there was a change in condition, injury of unknown
origin, open wound, or injury.
Interview on 1/31/2025 at 2:20 PM with Physician E revealed she did treat Resident #1's wound. She stated
the wound was in the lower abdominal/groin area. She stated it was in kind of a fold area. She specified the
wound did not look like a pressure related wound. She stated it was different than a moisture associated
breakdown. She stated it could be from trauma but it's hard to say for sure but

specified that it did not look moisture related. She stated the wound was small. It was .7 by .8 centimeters.
She stated she was notified of the wound by LVN (Licensed Vocational Nurse) A on December 27th around
7pm. She told LVN (Licensed Vocational Nurse) A to follow the standing order until she saw it unless LVN
(Licensed Vocational Nurse) A had a major concern.
Interview on 1/31/2025 at 3:00 PM with LVN (Licensed Vocational Nurse) A revealed he remembered
Resident #1's family member asked for someone to come take a look at a wound on Resident #1. He stated
he assessed the resident, treated the wound, and notified the wound care doctor. There was no need to
contact the family because the family member was the one who discovered the wound. There was no need
to report the wound because it was assumed to be a moisture related incident and not an injury of unknown
origin.
Record review of the Facility Abuse & Neglect Reporting Policy, dated July 2017, states reflected that All
alleged violations involving abuse, neglect, exploitation, or mistreatment, including injuries of an unknown
source and misappropriation of property will be reported by the facility Administrator, or his/her designee, to

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review the facility failed to ensure that all alleged violations involving abuse, neglect,
exploitation or mistreatment, including injuries of unknown source and misappropriation of resident
property, were reported immediately, but not later than 2 hours after the allegation was made, if the events
