Inspection Findings

FF0684
Quality of Life and Care Deficiencies

Care Coordinator, Registered Nurse (RN) 'A'.

When queried about how residents' skin was monitored

medical record. If there was a new skin impairment that was an open area, RN 'A' was notified, and

that RN 'A' is aware of was assessed weekly.

When queried about whether she assessed R702's skin tear and bruise, RN 'A' reported she would have only assessed the skin tear. RN 'A' further reported she remembered the incident with R702 on 8/2/25 and remembered looking at her arm and there was nothing there. RN 'A' reviewed R702's clinical record and said the last time she had a documented assessment of R702's skin was in July 2025. On 8/28/25 at 12:30 PM, an interview was conducted with the Director of Nursing (DON).

When queried about why R702 did not have any skin assessments since June 2025, the DON reported she would look into it. On 8/28/25 at 1:13 PM, the DON followed up and reported she was unable to find any skin assessments for R702 since June 2025.

The DON reported they should be completed weekly.

When queried about the lack of assessment of R702's skin tear and bruise that was documented on 8/2/25, the DON reported an incident report should have been completed by LPN 'E' and that would have triggered a manager to follow up and an investigation to be initiated. On 8/28/25 at 1:20 PM, an interview was conducted with CNA 'D'.

When queried about what happened to R702 on 8/2/25, CNA 'D' reported R702 was acting out and tried to get out of the wheelchair. CNA 'D' further explained she had difficulty redirecting the resident and could not find the nurse. In the meantime, R702 got her arm stuck underneath the arm rest of the wheelchair which caused a skin tear that began to bleed. CNA 'D' further said R702 tried to unlock the wheelchair and stuck her hand down between the chair and the wheel and jammed it which left a mark. CNA 'D' notified LPN 'E' when she was available. A review of an investigation into the reported incident on 8/2/25 revealed no documented assessment of the skin tear and bruise to R702's arms.
