- Failure to Provide Appropriate Pressure Ulcer Care Prevent New Ulcers from Developing – citation #F686 date October 2, 2018
- Failure to Develop and Implement Policies and Procedures That Prevent Abuse, Neglect, and Mistreatment – citation #F607 date October 2, 2018
The nursing home “failed to implement interventions to aid in the prevention of pressure ulcers or provide treatment and services to aid in the healing of pressure ulcers.”
In one incident, a resident was readmitted to the facility “with a Stage III pressure ulcer. The facility failed to complete timely assessments of the resident’s wound, obtain Physician’s orders for treatment.” As a result, “the resident’s wound deteriorated to a Stage IV infected pressure ulcer.”
In a second event, another resident “was admitted without pressure ulcers. The facility failed to provide pressure-relieving interventions for the resident’s feet and failed to consistently provide wound care treatments as ordered by the Physician. The resident developed multiple pressure ulcers, including two Stage IV [life-threatening] pressure ulcers.”
The surveyors reviewed the resident’s Nurse’s Wound Note dated that documented an ulcer measuring 6.3 cm x 2.9 cm with 100% covered slough. However, “there was no Physician’s orders” concerning guidance for treating the ulcer.
According to state investigators, “the facility failed to implement their abuse policies related to screening of prospective employees by failing to ensure one interim Director of Nursing [had] a fingerprint background check.” The nursing home also failed to conduct a background check on three employees whose files did not have documentation “of reference checks from previous employees” having been completed.
This failure by the nursing staff and administration “had the potential to affect all fifty residents who resided in the facility.” The Administrator verified that the “facility did not have documentation that reference checks were done.” The Administrator also verified that the interim Director of Nursing’s background check did not include a fingerprint background check.
