Trigger events should be reported immediately to the Administrator or the Director of Nursing (DON) by facility department managers and staff. 2. The Administrator and/or DON should then notify the Regional Nurse Consultant (RNC) via phone for the purpose of discussing the trigger event. 3. The RNC may proceed to set up a trigger event call, (if deemed necessary), with the Administrator, DON, Regional Director of Operations (RDO). (The Chief Operating Officer and [NAME] President of Clinical Services may also be added to the call as optional attendees). This notification process should be completed as quickly as possible in order to comply with regulatory standards for reporting, should the event be deemed reportable by the team. Following the Call: 4. The Administrator, DON or RNC will send a confirmation email to the Management Group named above, with a short summary including: type of event, facility, date, time, and residents/staff involved. Trigger events are tracked, trended for QA&A Process Improvement Plans, and handled in a confidential manner. The Management Team will assist and support the facility to handle the issues in an appropriate manner to achieve the best possible outcome related to the situation or event. 5. The Administrator or Director of Nursing/Nursing Manager will complete the Risk Management Report in Point Click Care. Subsequent to the education provided on 3/15/24, the facility has met the requirements of this regulation. Findings Include: 1.

(Note: The weekly skin integrity forms indicated that resident 46 had an open area during this time.) On 6/21/17 at 9:04 AM, an interview was conducted with Registered Nurse (RN) 2. RN 2 stated that she reported new PU issues to the Director of Nursing (DON) and the wound nurse. RN 2 stated that during her weekly skin checks all clothing and dressings were removed and the resident was inspected for any areas of concern. On 6/21/17 at 8:44 AM, an interview was conducted with the Director of Nursing (DON). The DON stated that resident 46's PU wasn't reported to her and that she accidentally identified the PU on 6/8/17 through an Interdisciplinary Team (IDT) notes review. The DON stated that the process for wound management was that the floor nurse was to report any PU to the DON and the DON would make arrangements for the wound physician to assess the wound. The DON stated that the wound nurse (WN) was also informed of the resident's PU by the DON for follow-up and weekly monitoring. The DON stated that the weekly monitoring occurred on Wednesdays. The DON stated that the wound physician was informed of resident 46's PU on 6/13/17. The DON further stated that prior to 6/14/17 weekly wound assessments were not done for this resident.

RN 2 was assisting the WN with the dressing change while the DON was documenting and taking pictures. RN 2 was positioned towards the head of resident 46, assisting the resident to maintain a right lateral position for the dressing change. An observation was made of the old dressing being removed by RN 2. The WN was observed to apply new gloves and cleanse the wound with a sterile 4 by (x) 4 gauze saturated in dermal wound cleanser. Wound measurements were obtained by the WN and measured 0.5 cm (centimeters) x 0.1 cm x 0.1 cm (length x width x depth). The wound was observed to have a white scab with no open areas visible. The WN stated that she staged it as a 0.1 depth even though it was closed, so that the would would remain on the assessment schedule. The WN stated that wounds tended to open back up quickly so she liked to extend the assessment time to allow it to fully heal. The WN was observed to apply Zinc and A&D ointment to the wound with a gloved finger. The WN was then observed to apply a Flivasorb adhesive foam bandage over the top. RN 2 stated, the wound has really improved since we started doing BID (twice daily) dressing changes. The WN stated that the dressing had been changed to BID since the wound physician assessed the wound, approximately a week ago. 2. Resident 28 was admitted on [DATE] with [DIAGNOSES REDACTED].

Noted res (resident) is obese and some wt (weight) loss would be recommend (sic). The RD did not address resident 28's skin integrity, or recommend interventions to prevent further skin breakdown or maintain current protein stores. The RD documented that resident 28 was at risk of malnutrition. In addition, in the assessment the RD inaccurately assessed resident 28's mobility as being able to propel herself in the wheelchair, instead of the resident's ability to get herself out of her bed or chair. The RD did not address that the resident required extensive assistance by staff for repositioning, which put her at increased risk for developing a pressure ulcer. (Note: It should be noted that no RD notes were made after 5/17/17 to indicate that the RD was aware of resident 28's changing nutritional needs for optimal health. It should also be noted that resident 28 was [AGE] years of age at the time that the RD stated weight loss was recommended). On 6/6/17, resident 28 had a Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (CMP) drawn.
