Based on record review and interviews, the facility failed to obtain physician orders for wound care, for 2 of 3 residents reviewed for wound care (Resident #1 and #2). Findings:

Residents Affected - Some

  1. 1. Review of Resident #2 clinical record indicated he/she has a chronic abscess to his/her right lateral thigh.
  2. On 8/30/25 a nursing progress note stated Resident #2 has a right thigh abscess that was previously healed on 8/19/25. The nurse was called to the resident's room and found that his/her right lateral thigh appeared swollen and now having drainage resulting in Resident #2 being sent to the emergency room (ER). On 8/31/25 a nursing note stated, resident returned from ER at 10:30 with 2 new orders of abx (antibiotics) for cellulitis, packing is to stay in place for 48-72 hours, additional instructions left in binder for [RN #1 Unit Manager]. Resident #2's clinical record lacked evidence of the emergency room discharge instructions and provider's order for this wound care or any wound care orders for the right lateral thigh from 8/31/25 until 9/11/25. Documentation in the skin and wound section revealed on 9/5/25 the right lateral thigh was assessed and measured by RN#1.

    On 10/20/25 at 2:18 p.m., during an interview, RN#2 stated, resident #2 has a chronic right lateral hip wound and remembers when he/she returned from the ER. The discharge summary said there was a dressing on his/her hip and it's supposed to be packed, leave it in place with the dressing on it for about 3 or 4 days, then take it off and have the wound Dr. take a look and they're supposed to do new orders. At this time, RN#2 stated she has not provided any wound care on that wound until 9/11/25 when the doctor wrote orders. RN#2 reviewed Resident #2's orders, including current, discontinued and completed orders and could not locate any wound care orders for the right lateral hip from 8/31/25 until 9/11/25 and confirmed

    she physically had the emergency room discharge summary in her hand and is now unable to find it in the hard chart or the electronic medical record.

    On 10/20/25 at 2:37 p.m., during an interview with 2 surveyors and the Director of Nursing, RN #1 Unit Manager stated that on 9/5/25 he had unpacked, assessed and repacked the wound. He reached out to the on-call provider to obtain wound care orders. The provider asked him to take a photo of the wound and pack it until a provider could assess it in person. RN #1 was unable to provide orders or documentation of

    this encounter. The surveyor asked if wound care was provided and physician orders were obtained from 8/31/25 through 9/11/25 when the wound was reviewed by the provider. He stated he was unable to find any information that wound care was provided with the exception of his assessment on 9/5/25.

  3. 2. Review of Resident #1's medical record contained a nursing note dated 10/9/25 which stated, Called to
  4. patient room for questions regarding NPWT (negative pressure wound therapy). On assessment, wound vac appears to not be functioning correctly r/t dressing malfunction. Supplies due to be delivered tomorrow, wound packed with VASHE soaked gauze per provider in lieu of new NPWT dressing. Review of provider orders lacked evidence of any orders for VASHE soaked gauze.

    On 10/20/25 at 11:32 a.m., during an interview, the above was confirmed with the Director of Nursing who stated RN#1 had called the provider and got verbal orders for the VASHE dressing but failed to write the order.
