In an interview the resident said the nurse had just finished changing the dressings on her wounds.
The resident said she was in pain from the wound care and had requested a pain pill.
The resident rated her pain a 9 out of 10 (severe pain). Resident #99 said she requires help to turn in bed.On 8/11/25 at 10:23 a.m., in an interview with Registered Nurse (RN) Staff H said she was doing the wound care today.
She said she was not the wound care nurse but when there was an extra person on the assignment, someone does the wound care.
The RN Staff H said Resident #99 had 3 wounds.
The sacrum and the left hip were treated with Moist Dakins solution (broad spectrum antiseptic) and dry sterile dressing daily and as needed.
The Left hip was infected, and the resident was receiving the antibiotic Bactrim. RN Staff H said the resident was not able to turn completely in bed, she requires 2 people to assist her.On 8/12/25 at 9:10 a.m., observation of wound care with Resident #99, with her consent.
Unit Manager LPN Staff F provided wound care and CNA Director of Patient Services Staff G assisted with positioning the resident.
The left hip wound was yellow with slough (dead tissue), and tan drainage, a moderate amount.
The Sacral wound was approximately the size of a deck of cards, black with an open area at 6:00 O'clock.
The treatment was Dakins soaked gauze and dry dressing for all the wounds.
The Unit Manager said the wound care is completed daily but she often does not let the wound care physician look at the wounds and she refuses treatments at times.
The Unit Manager said the resident likes to sit outside and smoke most of the day.On 8/12/25 at 10:16 a.m., in a telephone interview with the Wound Care Physician he said the resident refused care and is non-compliant. We recommended a low air loss mattress, and she refused it.
She is non-compliant and a smoker.
There is a low chance for the sacral wound to heal. I visit once a week it is on and off with her.
She does not always allow me to see her, and she is alert and oriented.
She is very stubborn, and she refused the air mattress and said it was too hard.
She does not comply with turning and repositioning.
The left hip is showing signs of infection, and she is on antibiotics for that.On 8/12/25 at 12:00 p.m., in an interview LPN Staff A confirmed on 2/2/25 and 2/16/25 she signed the Treatment Administration Record (TAR) verifying she completed the weekly skin evaluation but she did not do them.
