Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on

interview and record review it was determined the facility failed to provide wound care and assess a resident for use of a motorized wheelchair for 2 of 5 sampled residents (#s 2 and 4) reviewed for wounds and resident rights. This placed residents at risk for wound complications and lack of resident rights.

Findings include: 1.Resident 2 was re-admitted to the facility in 1/27/2025 with a diagnosis of infection.Resident 2's 1/27/25 Nursing Admission/readmission Evaluation/Assessment form revealed she/he had a surgical incision to the neck that was almost healed and open to air. The incision was 18 cm long by 0.2 cm wide. Resident 2's Nurse Practitioner Encounter note indicated Resident 2 had a surgical incision to the neck which was covered with a dressing. Resident 2's clinical record had no orders for dressing changes and no additional wound assessments after her/his readmission. Resident 2's 2/7/25 Progress Note revealed her/his surgical incision fully dehisced (surgical complication when a wound reopens), had a moderate amount of blood on her/his shirt and sheets, emergency transport was called, and she/he was transported to the hospital for evaluation and treatment. On 11/14/25 at 7:48 AM Staff 6 (RN) stated if a resident had a wound the care was documented on the TAR. Wounds, including incisions were monitored weekly until healed. Staff 6 stated Resident 2 always had a dressing in place, because she/he wore a neck brace, and the brace irritated the incision if it was not covered. Staff 6 stated she did not recall what the incision looked like prior to 2/7/25. Staff 6 stated when she entered Resident 2's room on 2/7/25 she observed blood on her/his bedding, removed the brace, old dressing, and observed the wound to be dehisced. Staff 6 stated she immediately called emergency services and Resident 2 was transported to the hospital. On 11/14/25 at 8:02 AM Staff 2 (DNS) stated staff were to complete an initial assessment of

a surgical incision upon admission to the facility. If the incision was not healed staff were to obtain wound care orders and monitor the site until healed. Staff 2 stated staff did not obtain orders for Resident 2's wound care and did not assess the incision after the resident was readmitted on [DATE REDACTED]. 2. Resident 4 was admitted to the facility in 12/2024 with a diagnosis of seizures. Resident 4's 12/23/24 admission CAA revealed she/he required assistance for most ADLs and was cognitively intact. Resident 4's Care Plan initiated on 12/2024 revealed she/he had ADL and mobility decline and required assistance due to weakness. Resident 4 did not walk and was dependent on staff for assistance when in a wheelchair. The care plan was revised on 8/1/25 to indicate Resident 4 was not to use her/his electric wheelchair at any time due to safety concerns. Resident 4's clinical record did not include a Power Mobility Device Screen assessment form. On 6/3/25 Resident 4 reported to the State agency the facility took away her/his power wheelchair. On 11/13/25 at 7:39 AM Staff 1 (Administrator) stated residents who had a power wheelchair were to be assessed prior to use to ensure they were safe to use it independently while in the facility. On 11/13/25 at 8:06 AM Staff 8 (CNA) stated Resident 4, at times, used a power wheelchair in the facility for short periods of time. On 11/13/25 at 11:07 AM Staff 3 (LPN Resident Care Manager) stated Resident 4 was medically unstable and not safe to drive her/his power wheelchair. Staff 3 stated she did not do a formal assessment. On 11/14/25 at 8:28 AM Staff 2 (DNS) stated Resident 4 should have been assessed and the findings reviewed with the resident.
