Based on your assessment...can
you see the wound bed....are the areas caused from pressure? I have put 10-12
charcoal briquettes in a nylon bag and hung it under the resident's bed, which
is very effective in controlling odor.
I just admitted an uncontrolled
diabetic with gangrene of both feet. How do I code this? A
stage 4 and if so how many?Wound infection? Will Medicare A pay for a
room deodorizer? Any other areas that I might need to
address on the MDS?Any
suggestions for careplanning appreciated�this is
obviously a first for me.Thanks.
