LVN A stated she performed wound care yesterday and forgot to date and initial. LVN A removed the dressing and performed wound care following physician orders. LVN A stated the importance of performing wound care daily as ordered was because Resident #1's wound had been infected and would easily become infected again especially with her diagnoses of diabetes. LVN A stated it is important to date and initial wound care bandage because, if different nurses were working the hall, or the nurse was not going to be there the next day the dressing should be initialed and dated to show wound care has been performed. During an interview on 5/30/24 at 3:40 p.m. the DON stated she expected staff to date and initial wound dressings. The DON stated dating and initialing wound dressing verified the wound care was performed. The DON stated she expected staff to sign off on the TAR when wound care was completed.
