Inspection Findings
During interview on 8/22/24 at 3:00 p.m., the director of nursing (DON), stated the facility was working on addressing high risk pressure ulcers by looking at the clinically complex nature of people who were already admitting with pressure ulcers, some of which had wound vacs and trying to promote healing.
They also really wanted involvement with a medical doctor, so the facility decided to get Vohera (name of a wound care company) to come in once a week.
The DON also stated they address pressure ulcers in their weekly interdisciplinary team (IDT) meetings and how important documentation was.
The main issue was getting the nurse to complete the documentation and not put it to the wayside. It is so important to do a skin assessment. We have provided education and the nurse manager RN-A has recently made time in the nurses schedule that is dedicated to completing skin assessments.
