F 0677 Provide care and assistance to perform activities of daily living for any resident who is unable. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) were performed for one (#3) three sampled residents related to incontinence care. Residents Affected - Few Findings included: On 01/23/2025 at 9:55 a.m., an interview was conducted with Staff A Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) and Staff C, Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) with Resident #3. The resident was sitting in a wheelchair in her room. The resident was dressed and groomed for the day. She had no noted odors. The resident was sitting on a cushion in her wheelchair. Requested Staff A and Staff C contact the surveyor when the resident was due and needed incontinence care. On 01/23/2025 at 1:00 p.m., an observation of Resident #3 with Staff A and Staff C was conducted during the transfer of the resident to the bed from her wheelchair. They both applied gloves and transferred the resident to the bed using the sit to stand lift onto the bed. The resident was placed on her right side. Her legs had a straight line across the lower back of her thighs, her upper thighs were a deep red/purple color. The shape of the color was the shape of the wheelchair cushion. Staff C, with her gloves on, cleaned the resident's peri area. She moved the trash can to the bedside and continued to use those gloves to finish the peri-care. Staff C stated she had been trying to change her since 11:00 a.m. but could not because the trays came out and she had to pass trays. Staff C stated she was pulled to take a floor assignment because the aide scheduled to work left after she heard she was scheduled for 18 residents. Staff C stated they usually have 4 aides on the 300 / 400 halls and they only had 3 today. Staff C stated no one was doing her job (restorative) today, because they pulled her. Staff C stated when she came over at around 9:00 a.m., the resident was already up and in her wheelchair. She did not know how long the resident had been up in her wheelchair. Staff C stated she did not know when the resident was last changed, it was already done when she came on shift. Staff C changed her gloves and replaced her gloves without hand sanitizing. Resident #3's brief was removed, and an old dressing was observed on her buttocks dated 01/22/25. The dressing appeared saturated with blood-tinged drainage. After wound care was performed Staff A and Staff C replaced the brief on the resident. The resident's legs appeared to be lightening in color. Staff C removed the sit to stand lift and placed it in the hallway. Both Staff A and Staff C hand sanitized post removing their gloves. Resident #3 was admitted on [DATE] and readmitted on [DATE]. Review of the admission record showed diagnoses included but not limited to atrial fibrillation, morbid obesity, dementia, hypertension, osteoarthritis, and disorder of kidney and ureter. Review of the physician orders and January 2025 Treatment Administration Record (TAR) showed: (continued on next page) Any deficiency statement ending with an asterisk (*) denotes a deficiency which the institution may be excused from correcting providing it is determined that other safeguards provide sufficient protection to the patients.

Perform hand hygiene as indicated throughout procedure 6. Position and prep resident and supplies for the procedure. 7. Remove all dressing of applicable per physician orders and dispose of as indicated. 8. Performed clean dressing change procedure as indicated per physician orders. 9. Document completion of procedure and the resident record. Review of the Clinical Safety: Hand Hygiene for Healthcare Workers, https://www.cdc.gov/clean-hands/hcp/clinical-safety/index.html on 01/24/2024 showed hand hygiene protects both healthcare personnel and patients. Hand hygiene means cleaning your hands with hand washing antiseptic hand rub. Cleaning your hands reduces: the potential spread of deadly germs to patients. Recommendations when to clean your hands: immediately before touching a patient, before moving from work on a soiled body site to a clean body site on the same patient. After touching a patient or patient's surroundings. After contact with blood, body fluids, or contaminated surfaces. Immediately after glove removal. Review of the facility's policy, Enhanced Barrier Precautions, 05/28/2024 showed the facility will decrease the transmission of multidrug-resistant organisms by maintaining infection control standards. Enhanced Barriers precautions (EBP) refers to an infection control intervention designed to reduce transmission of multi-drug resistant organisms that employs targeted gown and glove use during high contact resident care activities.
