On 03/12/15 at 3:00 p.m., the Oklahoma State Department of Health (OSDH) was notified of an immediate jeopardy (IJ) situation related to the facility's failure to have a system to ensure assessments were timely and accurate; interventions were implemented, monitored, and revised; and changes in a resident's condition were recognized, evaluated, and reported to the physician. The facility failed to consult with the physician regarding a pressure ulcer with dark drainage and an odor. The resident was hospitalized with multiple [MEDICAL CONDITION], fever, cough, and headache following a visit from a physician assistant on 03/04/15. An operative report from the hospital documented the resident had multiple stage III pressure ulcers, a stage V pressure ulcer with malodorous necrosis and gangrene, and a wet gangrene ulcer. On 03/12/15 the OSDH verified an immediate jeopardy situation existed related to the facility's failure to have a system to ensure skin/pressure ulcer assessments were timely and appropriate; interventions were implemented, monitored, and revised; and changes in a resident's skin/pressure ulcer condition were recognized, evaluated, and reported to the physician. On 03/12/15 the administrator and director of nursing (DON) were informed of the IJ situation related to not having a system to ensure assessments were timely and appropriate; interventions were implemented, monitored, and revised; and changes in a resident's condition were recognized, evaluated and reported to the physician.
