and has incision and bone pain.

does the
patient have pain or difficulty walking? If no, leave as you have coded.
Otherwise the RAI indicates you would mark M6a

section M
Hi guys,
I have a resident with intact
blister to her left heel. We have an order to swab area with betadine and
leave it open to air.
I coded the blister on
section M as a stage II pressure ulcer. I also checked 5e for ulcer care.
Since we do not applying the dressing I did not check 6f.
I think I do not have to check
anything else regards this blister, but my DON said I need to check 6a for
foot problems and care.
Does she right?
Thanks Lana Vinnik RN,
