SUMMARY STATEMENT OF DEFICIENCIES

During an Interview with the DON on 11/13/2025 at 5:28p.m., she stated the podiatrist saw the residents every 62 to 90 days.

She said staff were to report if a resident had long toenails to a nurse.

She said not cutting long toenails could cause the resident to have an ingrown toenail and could be painful to treat.

She said she did not know why Resident #5 and Resident #6 did not have their toenails cut by the podiatrist.

During an interview with the SW on 11/14/25 at 12:02 p.m., he stated that he orchestrates the podiatry clinics for the facility. He said the facility just hired a new podiatry group. He said the new podiatry group had been to the facility twice. He said that he sends all required residents' information to the podiatrist. He said then the podiatrist would come to the facility and provides toenail care to the residents on the list. He said the last time the new podiatrist was at the facility was on October 23rd.

He said staff were expected to provide residents who were not diabetic toenail care. He said staff should do toenail care when the resident is given a shower. He said if staff did not provide toenail care to the residents it could cause the resident pain and potentially infection. He did not know why staff had not cut Resident #5 and Resident #6's toenails.

Record review of ADL Nail Care Policy dated 3/10/2000 revealed Nail management is the regular care of the toenails and fingernails to promote cleanliness, and skin integrity of tissues, to prevent infection, and injury from scratching by fingernails or pressure of shoes on toenails. It includes cleansing, trimming, smoothing, and cuticle care and is usually done during the bath.

Nails can become thinner and more brittle in the elderly and thicker if peripheral circulation is impaired.

Nails are also important in assessment, as changes occur with certain medical conditions, such as clubbing with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or cardiac disease.

Color changes with circulatory or lymphatic impairment and certain drug therapy is common.

Ingrown toenails are also common in the elderly.

Fungal infections of the toenails, dry, brittle ridges and thickening of the nails all occur in the elderly with some frequency.

Nail care will be performed regularly and safely.

The resident will be free from abnormal nail conditions.

The resident will be free from infection.

Should be performed according to the resident centered plan of care.
