The Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON) did not pull the privacy curtain all around the Resident 15's bed while performing a treatment to the resident's sacrum. The findings included: The facility admitted Resident #15 on 8/11/11 with [DIAGNOSES REDACTED]. The Resident acquired a Sacral Decubitus. During preparation for wound care observation on 4/30/12 at 4:37pm, the ADON pulled the privacy curtain between the beds, but not around the foot of the bed failing to ensure total privacy. The Resident was in a semi-private room and her bed was located next to the window. While providing wound care, the Resident's sacral area was exposed toward the room door. The roommate was present in the room, sitting in a wheelchair on the other side of the curtain and was at times observed tugging on the curtain and becoming agitated. During an interview on 5/2/12 at 10:30am with the ADON regarding the routine procedure for providing privacy during a wound treatment, she stated I will have to check on that. On 5/2/12 at 10:50am, the ADON offered more information on providing privacy and stated, It's our practice to close the door and pull the curtain half way. Anyone entering the room would knock on the door and have been asked to wait one minute due to doing care. The facility's policy entitled Wound Care provided by the facility on 5/2/12 at 12:20pm did not address provision of privacy. However, the policy stated following the treatment If the resident desires, return the door and curtains to the open position . 2016-06-01
