Starting at 10:29 a.m. LPA conducted in person interviews with the four (4) staff including the Designee and Assistant Administrator, two (2) residents including Resident #1 (R1), a telephonic interview with the Power of Attorney (POA) of R1, a record review, medication review and audit and obtained copies of pertinent documents relevant to the investigation.
On the allegation Staff does not ensure resident does not sustain pressure injuries, it is the concern of the Reporting Party (RP) that R1 was observed to have bed sores. To investigate this complaint, LPA Mosley conducted interviews with four (4) staff, two (2) residents including R1, a telephonic interview with the POA of R1, a record review and obtained copies of pertinent documents relevant to the investigation. Interviews with staff revealed that R1 has been on hospice care since 10/29/2025. R1 does not have any bed sores. However, R1 has a wound on their right ankle that originated as a pimple and was frequently scratched by R1, resulting in an open wound. R1 is seen by their hospice nurse two (2) times per week and by a wound care specialist two (2) times per week, during which the wound is treated. Interview with R1 revealed that they have had a metal plate in their right ankle for many years. They developed a pimple-like bump on the ankle, which they repeatedly scratched, leading to an exposed wound. R1 is currently seen by a nurse three (3) to four (4) times per week for wound care. R1 confirmed that they do not have any pressure injuries. Interview with the POA confirmed that R1 does not have any pressure injuries. The POA stated that R1 has a metal plate in their ankle and developed a pimple-like bump, which R1 scratched open, leaving it exposed. As of 10/29/2025, R1 has been on hospice care and receiving wound treatment for the injury. R1 has not sustained any pressure injuries while at the facility. Record review confirmed that R1 has been on hospice care since 10/29/2025 and is seen by a wound care specialist two (2) times per week. Wound care is documented in R1’s care plan. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is insufficient evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur. Therefore, the allegation of Staff does not ensure resident does not sustain pressure injuries is deemed unsubstantiated at this time.
On the allegation Staff does not ensure resident's bathroom needs are being met it is the concern of the Reporting Party (RP) that R1 needed to use the bathroom and staff did not assist. To investigate this complaint, LPA Mosley conducted interviews with four (4) staff, two (2) residents including R1, a telephonic interview with the POA of R1, a record review and obtained copies of pertinent documents relevant to the investigation.
