Summary
Facility staff failed to provide appropriate treatment and services for a resident who was incontinent of bowel and bladder and had a stage 4 sacral pressure ulcer. Review of the resident's medical records, including treatment administration records, physician orders, and the care plan, revealed no documentation of interventions or services to address the resident's incontinence. Interviews with the Director of Social Work and the Nurse Unit Manager confirmed that there was no plan in place to manage the resident's incontinence, and both acknowledged that such a plan should have existed. The deficiency was identified during a review of the resident's chart and confirmed through staff interviews.
