32 | Per interview with Licensee/Administrator Juan Garcia Trujillo when R1 was admitted to the facility there was no pressure injuries noted. R1 experienced heart failure and was admitted to hospice on February 11, 2026. When R1 was admitted to hospice there was a stage 1 pressure injury on their back.
Per page four of Hospice IDG Comprehensive Assessment and Plan of Care Update Report it is stated “Skilled nursing to educate on skin breakdown prevention measures including: changing position at least every 2-3hrs..” It was noted on a hospice physician order dated February 26, 2026, R1 had both left buttock stage 2 pressure ulcer and left upper back stage 2 pressure injury as well as directions for cleaning and dressing both wounds. Subsequent visits on March 3, 2026, and March 6, 2026, note the pressure ulcers to be a stage 2 wound and hospice noted to increase their visits to three times per week due to coccyx wound infection. On March 10th 2026, it was noted that an unstageable pressure ulcer was on the coccyx. On March 13, 2026, hospice noted they need to evaluate and treat stage IV pressure injury to coccyx and mid back. On March 16, 2026, hospice notes indicated that R1 was found lying on dirty and soiled linens and appeared unclean as well as disheveled. Per interviews with hospice it was reported that R1’s hospice care plan was discussed with both the Licensee and caregiving staff and staff told the hospice nurse they were able to provide the care for R1.
Per interviews with staff and residents there was one caregiver in addition to the Licensee/Administrator, around February 23,2026 the only other available staff was unable to perform their duties. Per interviews with Licensee, Licensee stated that R1 would complain of pain during repositioning and incontinence checks. Licensee stated that they would change R1’s patches that covered the wounds but due to urine output the patches and wounds were wet. R1 had a foley catheter placed while on hospice. Licensee stated when he would try to reposition R1, R1 would cry and refuse to be repositioned. Licensee stated that he did not want to violate R1’s personal rights of refusal of medication treatment. Per hospice notes and review of hospice medication orders, R1 was prescribed the following for pain: tramadol to be given three times per day and morphine for the breakthrough pain.
Per review of hospice Client Coordination Note Report dated March 17, 2026, R1’s wound has progressed rapidly. It was also noted on Client Coordination Note Report that Licensee Juan Trullijo was consulted on multiple occasions to reposition R1 to prevent further issues with pressure ulcers. R1 passed away at the facility while on hospice on March 20, 2026. |
