- Failure to Provide Every Resident an Environment Free of Accident Hazards and Provide Adequate Supervision to Prevent Avoidable Accidents – citation #F689 date May 17, 2018
- Failure to Provide Appropriate Pressure Ulcer Care Prevent New Ulcers from Developing – citation #F686 date July 16, 2018
The state investigators determined that the nursing home “failed to follow its policy regarding monitoring and maintaining alarms and functional use and applying a Wander Guard (a tracking system placed on the wrist or ankle that activates door alarms if the resident moves outside a specific area) as prescribed by the physician and the resident’s Plan of Care. The facility’s staff failed to implement safety measures to ensure adequate supervision, and that alarm doors were functional to prevent elopement for [three residents].”
In one incident, a newly admitted resident had “traveled over 30 miles and was found at an Assisted Living Facility lower level of care.” Another resident “who had a high risk for elopement, did not have a Wander Guard on as per the Physician’s orders.” A third resident, “who had a high risk for elopement and had a Wander Guard wrist band [accessed] the facility’s unlocked and unarmed maintenance door, which was observed to lead to the outside parking lot and the main street.”
The “facility failed to obtain treatment orders and provide daily treatments for a Stage III pressure ulcer (pressure wound that extends into the tissue beneath the skin that exposes underlying tissue) on the right heel for [one resident].” The “deficient practice had the potential for the pressure ulcer to worsen and result in an infection.”
The Director of Nursing confirmed that the resident “did not have any treatment orders for wound care during the resident’s five-day stay from April 9, 2018, to April 13, 2018. The Director stated [that the resident] was at risk for developing pressure ulcers and a treatment order should have been obtained and daily treatment should have been provided for the resident’s right heel pressure ulcer.”
A review of the resident’s Braden Scale for Predicting Pressure Sore Risk dated April 10, 2018, indicated that the resident “was at a very high risk for developing pressure ulcers.”
