Regency Health and Rehab: Avoidable Wound Violation - VA
The inspection, conducted at the facility on North Constitution Drive, centered on a single resident identified in records as Resident 3. Inspectors found that staff had failed to provide adequate monitoring and treatment for the resident's wound. The violation was cited under the federal standard governing pressure ulcer prevention and wound care.
What made the finding notable was not just what happened, but what staff conceded once inspectors were done. The wound healed after proper measures were finally put in place. That timeline, inspectors concluded, confirmed the wound was avoidable. The facility had the means to prevent it. They hadn't used them.
When inspectors asked whether staff had anything further to offer in response to the findings, the answer was no.
The deficiency was classified as having caused minimal harm or the potential for actual harm, the lower end of CMS's harm scale. A small number of residents were identified as affected. No immediate jeopardy was declared.
The inspection was triggered by a complaint, not a routine survey, meaning someone, whether a resident, a family member, or a staff member, raised a concern serious enough to prompt investigators to come in and look.
Regency Health and Rehabilitation Center is a 112-bed skilled nursing facility. The October inspection produced a plan of correction that the facility was directed to file with either the nursing home itself or the Virginia state survey agency.
What the record does not show is how long Resident 3's wound went without proper attention before someone intervened, or whether anyone at the facility had flagged the problem internally before inspectors arrived. The report states only that once the right measures were instituted, the wound healed. The gap between when it should have started and when it did is not documented in the public record.
For Resident 3, the wound is now healed. The inspection report closes there.

Additional Resources
Data source: This article is based on inspection data downloaded directly from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) via Medicare.gov. CMS releases inspection reports in bulk; we publish the findings as documented by state surveyors in the official Form CMS-2567 Statement of Deficiencies.
Plan of correction: The CMS report we receive does not include the facility's plan of correction. Facilities submit plans of correction separately to state survey agencies and those responses may not be reflected in CMS data at the time of publication. The absence of a plan of correction in our data does not mean one was not filed. Readers who want information about corrective steps taken are encouraged to contact the facility directly or their state survey agency.
Corrections may have occurred: Inspection reports reflect conditions observed on the date of the survey. Facilities may have implemented corrections, staffing changes, additional training, or other remediation since the report was issued. We report what CMS provides and encourage readers to seek current information from the facility.
Editorial process: Inspection findings are extracted from CMS source documents and synthesized using AI, reviewed for factual accuracy against the original report by our editorial team.
