Careview Minocqua: Quality Care Deficiency - WI
What followed was four missed wound care shifts over three days. The resident received no wound care on the afternoon of November 3, on either shift November 4, or on the afternoon of November 5. On November 6, the resident was sent to the emergency room and did not come back.
The gap in treatment wasn't caught immediately. On November 5, a registered nurse updated a nurse practitioner that the facility simply didn't have vancomycin solution on hand. A wet-to-dry dressing was ordered as a substitute while the facility waited for the medication to arrive. Inspectors, reviewing the record, could find no evidence the facility ever placed an order for vancomycin at all.
When the surveyor raised these findings with LPN B, the nurse said she believed the resident had received appropriate care during that period and would try to find documentation to support it. No additional documentation was ever provided.
The surveyor also attempted to interview the nurse who had admitted the resident. That interview never happened.
CMS cited the violation at a level of minimal harm or potential for actual harm, affecting few residents. The citation covers the gap between what the hospital ordered and what the facility actually delivered, a span of days during which a wound went untreated and a prescribed antibiotic solution sat unordered in a record no one acted on.
The resident was hospitalized on November 6. The inspection report does not describe what condition they were in when they left, or what happened after.
