During an interview on 7/20/2022 at 7:10 AM, Staff D, LPN, stated, I asked if I should check for blood return and was told that I didn't need to. There was no order for it. During an interview on 7/20/2022 at 7:30 AM, the Interim Director of Nursing stated, It is not in our policy that we have to verify blood return. Review of the facility policy and procedure titled P & P PICC IV [Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter Intravenous] Line issued on 1/1/2022, reads, Policy: It will be the policy of this facility to adhere to IV/PICC line administration guidelines as set forth by infection control, state and federal regulations.

Review of the document titled SASH Technique provided by the facility reads, The Infusion Nurses Society's Infusion Nursing Standards of Practice clearly define three purposes of catheter flushing: to assess catheter function, to maintain catheter patency, and to prevent contact between incompatible medications or fluids that could produce a precipitate. For effective catheter flushing, the nurse must have an understanding of technique and the equipment used within his/her institution as well as the type of catheter in use. S- Saline Flush ensures patency of the line of residual medication . * Aspirate for blood return to ensure line patency before each access. 2.

During an interview on 7/20/2022 at 7:10 AM, Staff D, LPN, stated, I asked if I should check for blood return and was told that I didn't need to. There was no order for it. I was not aware that if there was gauze under the transparent dressing that it needed to be changed more frequently.
