Provide appropriate pressure ulcer care and prevent new ulcers from developing.
Level of Harm - Actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to cleanse a stage four pressure ulcer in a
manner to prevent cross contamination and failed to ensure staff were knowledgeable in the use of a
pressure reduction device for 1 of 2 residents (R42) reviewed for pressure in the sample of 14. These
failures resulted in R42 being at an increased risk of infection and delayed wound healing.
Residents Affected - Few
The findings include:
R42's face sheet printed on 9/13/23 showed diagnoses including but not limited to Alzheimer's disease,
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, diabetes mellitus, protein-calorie malnutrition, chronic kidney
disease, neuromuscular bladder, and stage 4 pressure ulcer of the sacral region (lower back/upper buttock
area).
R42's facility assessment dated [DATE] showed moderate cognitive impairment and extensive staff
assistance required for bed mobility, dressing, toilet use, and personal hygiene. The same assessment total
staff dependence required for transfers. The assessment showed a urinary catheter in use and R42 is
always incontinent of bowel.
R42's physician orders showed an order dated 9/12/23 to: Place calcium alginate into wound on sacrum,
after cleansing the wound with N.S. (normal saline) .cover with protective dressing/bandage, every day shift
related to pressure ulcer of sacral region, stage 4. The orders showed an additional order dated 9/12/23 to:
Place pressure relieving device on bed and wheelchair. (Both orders were dated as of the day the survey).
R42's Medication Administration Records (MAR) showed recent antibiotic use for wound infections. The
August 2023 MAR showed documentation of tigecycline intravenous administered for ten days (8/4 to 8/13)
for a MRSA wound infection. The MAR showed amoxicillin-pot clavulanate oral tablets administered for 10
days (8/25 to 9/4) for wound infection.
R42's most recent weekly wound assessment dated [DATE] showed the stage 4 pressure ulcer to the
sacrum present on admission. The assessment showed the wound was 4 cm long, 2 cm wide, and 1 cm
deep (centimeters). Visible tissue was epithelial (pink) and granulated (beefy red).
On 9/12/23 at 10:29 AM, R42 was lying in bed on her back and stated she has a sore on her butt. R42 said
it has been there awhile and they put a dressing on it daily. A pressure reducing air mattress overlay was
under R42. The dial on the machine showed it was set at just over the 120 mark. At 10:37 AM, V3
(WCN-Wound Care Nurse) and V4 (CNA-Certified Nurse Aide) rolled R42 to her side. A large white, damp
dressing was hanging loosely off her sacral area. V3 stated there was a tele-visit

scheduled with the wound doctor in approximately 15 minutes and she would apply a fresh dressing when
she was done with the physician's visual assessment. R42's pressure reduction mattress pad was set at
the 80 mark. At 10:53 AM, V3 (WCN) and V18 (Nurse Liaison) rolled R42 to her side. V3 removed the
dressing and held a tele visit via cell phone with V17 (Wound Physician). V17 stated to continue with the
daily cleansing and calcium alginate wound care treatments.
On 9/12/23 at 11:24 AM, V3 (WCN) wore gloves and removed the damp dressing from R42's sacrum. A
golf ball size open wound with reddened skin surrounding it was observed. V3 used a gauze pad soaked in
normal saline and blotted randomly at the wound. V3 blotted up, down, in and out across the wound. V3
poured more saline solution onto the same gauze pad a second time and blotted the wound again. V3 wore
the same contaminated gloves and placed a calcium alginate pad on the wound then used a cotton swab to
push it down. V3 readjusted the calcium alginate pad with her finger while wearing the same gloves. V3
placed a bordered foam dressing over the wound while still wearing the same contaminated gloves. V3 did
not change gloves or sanitize her hands during the dressing change. V3 said she does the dressing change
each day and as needed during the week. The floor nurses do it over the weekends. R42's pressure pad
dial showed it was just under the 60 mark.
On 9/12/23 at 2:41 PM, R42 was lying in bed. The pressure pad dial showed a setting pass the 280 mark.
V5 (CNA Supervisor) was questioned by this surveyor what the pressure reduction devices hanging on the
foot of resident beds were used for. V5 said she did not know what the machine was and had no idea how
they should be set up. V5 stated she needed to ask her DON (Director of Nurses). V5 and V2 (DON)
returned to the unit together approximately five minutes later. V2 was shown the pressure reducing device
and stated they are used to prevent skin breakdown. V2 observed the setting on R42's device and said it is
set well beyond the 280 mark and is as firm as it can be set. V2 said she did not know how the mattress
should be set and will need to look into it.
On 9/12/23 at 3:01 PM, V1(Administrator/Registered Nurse) said the air mattresses are set based on
resident comfort. If they say it feels fine, then we leave it alone. If the skin looks reddened, it should be
turned to a softer setting. We look for facial grimacing if the resident is non-verbal or just looks
uncomfortable. V1 said pressure ulcer mattresses are set based on a resident's individual preferences. We
turn it softer or firmer based on how they look and what they report as to the feel of it under them.
On 9/13/23 at 9:08 AM, R42 was in bed and the pressure reduction pad was set beyond the 280 mark.
On 9/13/23 at 1:05 PM, V3 (WCN) stated she had no idea what R42's mattress setting should be at. V3
said she did not know who sets it or how it is set. V3 said she has nothing to do with the pressure device
settings. V3 said wound treatments should be done in a manner to help healing. V3 said the wound should
be cleansed as ordered and kept clean while doing the treatment. V3 said it is important not to infect the
wound in anyway while doing the treatments. V3 said she starts with hand hygiene and a fresh pair of
gloves. V3 said she keeps the same gloves on until she is done with the treatment. V3 did not mention any
glove changes were necessary while doing wound treatments. V3 said she wipes the inside and outside of
the wound in a blotting manner. V3 said a cotton swab is used to fit the calcium alginate into the wound and
it is important nothing dirty touches the wound. It could become contaminated. V3 and the surveyor
observed R42's pressure reduction device together. It was set at the 120 mark. V3 said she had no idea
what the numbers represent and maybe V1 (Administrator) would know.
On 9/13/23 at 2:15 PM, V1 (Administrator/RN) said gloves should be changed anytime they are

contaminated. Wounds should probably be cleaned from the inner area to the outer area. Nurses should be
doing the dressing changes per the facility policy and the wound care nurse is the one that knows the
proper technique. It is important to prevent infection. Poor wound care can delay healing and lead to other
complications. Infected wounds can become systemic and R42 had just completed a round of antibiotics
related to a sacral wound infection. V1 said the point of the pressure reduction mattress is to reduce
pressure. It is based on resident comfort. V1 said we stick our hand under the mattress to judge if it is too
soft or too hard. Our technique is based on the manufacturer's instructions. At 2:38 PM, V1 and the
surveyor observed R42's mattress setting at the 60 mark. V1 turned the dial to 180 and said, I have no idea
how or why this dial setting works.
On 9/14/23 at 4:33 PM, V17 (Wound Physician) stated R42 has a tricky sacral wound. It is a chronic
problem and staff should be cleaning it according to the orders. Cleansing the wound bed should be done
per the facility's protocol. A fresh gauze pad is needed for each wipe or each time it is touched. The area
should not be blotted because that will not thoroughly clean the wound. Gloves should be changed between
dirty and clean use. It is important before going on to any treatments. V17 said gloves should be changed
after cleansing the wound. New gloves should be worn to apply the calcium alginate and another set of new
gloves to put the dressing over the wound. V17 said hand hygiene should be done between glove changes.
V17 said R42 was on an antibiotic recently and poor wound cleansing can increase her risk for another
infection. V17 said R42's wound has the risk of decreased healing, increased pain, and a septic infection if
wound care is not done properly. V17 said R42's pressure reduction mattress should be used per the
manufacturer recommendations and staff need to know how to use it. It needs to be more than just comfort
based. V17 said the standard is to set it at a level so the mattress sinks to about 20%. The facility should
have a policy or procedure to explain to the staff how to use her pressure reduction mattress. Not knowing
how to use it puts her at an increased risk for poor wound healing.
The manufacturer instructions for R42's pressure reduction pad (undated) showed: 7. Please use pressure
adjust knob to give maximum patient comfort. The facility was unable to provide any additional information
related how to ensure it was providing the necessary pressure reduction or instructions on how to use the
pad.
The facility's Clean Dressing Change policy last review dated 7/28/2023 states under the purpose section:
It is the policy of this facility to provide wound care in a manner to decrease potential for infection and/or
cross-contamination. The policy states under the steps in the procedure section: 9. Loosen the tape and
remove the existing dressing .10. Remove gloves, pulling inside out over the dressing. Discard into
appropriate receptacle. 11. Wash hands and put on clean gloves. 12. Cleanse the wound as ordered, taking
care to not contaminate other skin surfaces or other surfaces of the wound (i.e., clean outward from the
center of the wound). Pat dry with gauze. 13. Measure wound using disposable measuring guide as
indicated. 14. Wash hands and put on clean gloves. 15. Apply topical ointments or creams and dress the
wound as ordered .16. Secure the dressing.)

Level of Harm - Actual harm
Residents Affected - Few
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to supervise a resident at high risk for falls, with
previous falls in the facility, and failed to supervise a resident with wandering behaviors for 2 of 8 residents
(R41, R26) reviewed for safety and supervision in the sample of 14. This failure resulted in R41 falling,
sustaining a hip fracture, and being sent out to a local hospital for evaluation and surgical treatment.
The findings include:
1. R41's admission Record, printed by the facility on 9/13/23, showed she had diagnoses including vascular
dementia, severe, with behavioral disturbance, a history of falling, unsteadiness on feet, and abnormalities
of gait and mobility. The admission Record also showed a diagnoses added on 4/29/23 (upon readmission
from a local hospital) of nondisplaced intertrochanteric fracture of left femur (left hip fracture). The
admission Record showed R41 resides on the dementia care unit of the facility.
R41's progress note dated 4/21/23 showed 7:15 PM, V6 (Licensed Practical Nurse-LPN) heard a noise
coming from the dementia care unit's dining room. Upon investigation, R41 was observed lying on the floor
of the dining room.
R41's progress note dated 4/22/23 at 6:00 AM showed R41's doctor was updated about R41 having
increased pain during the night. R41 was able to bear weight but was refusing to take steps. The note
showed R41 was favoring her left leg and knee. The note showed a new order was given to X-ray R41's left
hip, femur and knee.
R41's progress note dated 4/22/23 at 9:30 AM showed R41 had another fall in her room and was found
lying on her left side on the floor. The note showed R41 was attempting to stand up unassisted and
continued to put her left hand on her left thigh, saying Ouch when R41 attempted to take a step. The note
showed the company that was notified to perform the X-ray was on the way to the facility. R41 was placed
on one-to-one staff supervision at that time, due to attempts to self-transfer/ambulate.
R41's progress note dated 4/22/23 at 11:58 AM showed R41's X-ray results showed an acute
intertrochanteric hip fracture.
R41's progress note dated 4/22/23 at 12:14 PM showed a new order was received from R41's Physician to
send her to a local hospital's emergency department for evaluation and treatment of her left hip, due to
X-ray results and signs of pain.
The facility's document titled Incidents by Incident Type, printed by the facility on 9/13/23, showed between
7/25/22 - 9/13/23 R41 had 17 falls in the facility. The document showed 12 of R41's falls occurred before the
fall resulting in a fracture that occurred on 4/21/23. The document showed R41's falls had occurred in the
hallway, in the dining room, in R41's room, in R41's bathroom, and in the lounge area.
R41's facility assessment dated [DATE] showed R41 had severe cognitive impairment, short-term and
long-term memory problems, and continuous inattention. The assessment also showed R41 had falls in

the facility and wandering behaviors. The assessment also showed R41 required supervision when walking.
Level of Harm - Actual harm
R41's Morse Fall Scale (a tool to determine a resident's risk for falls) dated 4/4/23 showed R41 had a high
risk for falling.
Residents Affected - Few
On 9/14/23 at 8:38 AM V6 (LPN) said she thinks R41 was in the dining room when R41 fell on 4/21/23. V6
stated, she (R41) had so many falls, I (V6) think this is the one where she was in the dining room. V6 said
she was in the hallway passing medications when she heard R41 fall. V6 said she went into the dining room
and R41 was on the floor. V6 said R41 did not complain of pain at the time and was trying to get up on her
own. V6 said no staff were in the dining room at the time of R41's fall, they were getting other residents up.
V6 said there were other residents in the dining room at that time, however, she does not recall which
residents. V6 said R41 had falls before that incident. V6 said R41 had been sitting up at a table in the dining
room, prior to her fall. V6 said R41 would not stay anywhere, she was walking at the time and got up on her
own. V6 said R41 was, and still is, restless and is constantly going. V6 said R41 was a fall risk. V6 said it is
probably not a good idea to have her (R41) in the dining room with no staff present, considering she is a fall
risk.
On 9/14/23 at 12:28 PM, V13 (Certified Nursing Assistant-CNA) said the day R41 fell in the dining room
and sustained a hip fracture, V13 was in another resident's room assisting the resident. V13 said by the
time she got done assisting the other resident and went out of the room, R41 had already been assessed
and was back up in her chair. V13 said V6 (LPN) informed her R41 had fallen. V13 said she did not consider
R41 a fall risk, prior to that incident, because R41 had not had any falls on her shift. V13 said the only time
she would consider R41 a fall risk was when she was agitated and pacing, but that did not happen very
often. V13 said when she went through her initial training at the facility, she was told that staff should be in
the dining room at all times when there are any residents in the dining room; regardless of whether it is
when they are serving food or eating. V13 said she does not know if there were staff in the dining room at
the time or not because was assisting another resident.
On 9/14/23 11:00 AM, V16 (Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner) said R41 has dementia, wandering behaviors,
and a history of falls and should not be left in the dining room unsupervised. V16 said she feels that no
residents should be in the dining room unsupervised; whether it is during a meal, or before a meal, in case
there is an emergency situation. V16 said there should be someone in the dining room when there are
residents in there. Staff should respond as soon as they hear the sensor alarm going off.
R41's care plan, with a revision date of 5/1/23, showed R41 is at risk for a decline in physical mobility due
to Alzheimer's and a recent hip fracture with repair, significant mobility change. The care plan showed R41
was non-ambulatory with CNA and is totally dependent on one staff for locomotion, using a wheelchair.
R41's care plan initiated on 6/15/22 showed R41 is at risk for falls related to cognitive deficit and poor
safety awareness secondary to dementia. The care plan showed R41 wandered and had impulsive
behaviors.
The facility assessment dated [DATE] showed R41 requires extensive assist from two staff members for
transfers. The assessment showed R41 had two falls in the facility since reentry or the prior assessment.

with orthopedic surgery. Tentative plan for surgical fixation on Monday, 4/24/23.
Level of Harm - Actual harm
Residents Affected - Few
R41's progress note dated 4/29/23 showed R41 returned to the facility via ambulance post hospitalization
for intertrochanteric fracture of left femur. Post-op dressing dry and intact to left hip surgical incision.
On 9/12/23 at 9:39 AM, A bed alarm went off on the dementia care unit of the facility. The alarm was
coming from R41's room. R41 was sitting up in bed. Her left leg was over the side of her bed and she was
bringing her right leg over to the side of the bed. R41's hands were on the bed on both sides of her, like she
was getting ready to push herself up to stand up. This surveyor cued R41 to stay in bed and wait for staff 3
times (whenever she was making the motion to attempt to stand up) between 9:39 - 9:42 AM. At 9:42 AM,
V11 CNA came through the door of the memory care unit and went into R41's room. Just prior to R41's
alarm sounding, V14 (CNA) had entered a resident's room next to R41's room and closed the door.
On 9/13/23 at 2:16 PM, V4 (CNA) was asked what intervention were in place to prevent R41 from falling. V4
said she thinks the interventions in place are to her pull alarm and low bed right now. V4 said as soon as
we hear her alarm, we come running.
On 9/14/23 at 8:18 AM, V2 (Director of Nursing-DON) was asked which residents would be a candidate for
a sensor alarm. V2 said residents who have fallen a million times. V2 said the alarm gives staff a little time
to get to the resident before they fall on the ground. V2 said staff should respond to the alarm as soon as
possible when the alarm goes off.
On 9/14/23 at 11:00 AM, V16 (Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner) said staff should respond as soon as they
hear the sensor alarm going off.
The facility's policy and procedure titled Fall Prevention and Management, approved on 5/18/18, showed
Fall Prevention: 1. Conduct fall assessments on the day of admission, quarterly, and review after each fall
.7. All staff must observe residents for safety. If residents with a high-risk code are observed up or getting
up, help must be summoned or assistance must be provided to the resident .
2. R26's admission Record, printed by the facility on 9/13/23, showed R26 was admitted to the facility on
[DATE] and had diagnoses including dementia with behavioral disturbance, restlessness and agitation,
anxiety disorder, and major depressive disorder. R26's facility assessment dated [DATE] showed she had
severe cognitive impairment and wandering behaviors. The assessment showed R26 required supervision
of staff when walking in her room and in the corridor on the unit. R26's Wandering/Elopement assessment
dated [DATE] showed she was able to be independently mobile and had a diagnosis of
dementia/Alzheimer's/Confusion. The assessment showed R26 exhibited pacing, wandering, trying to get
out of the door, find family or friend, and/or perceived the need to be doing something other than what they
are doing (e.g., go to work, get home, fix supper, do chores).
On 9/12/23 At 2:58 PM, R26 was not in her room, or in the dining room of the dementia care unit. This
surveyor walked down the hall, looking into other resident rooms that had the door open. At 2:59 PM, V4
and V10 (Certified Nursing Assistants-CNAs) were coming out of another resident's room and were asked if
they knew where R26 was. V4 and V10 said R26 was in the dining room coloring. V12 (Agency Manager)
had just entered the dementia care unit and was informed that this surveyor was looking for R26. V12
looked in R26's room and knocked on the bathroom door in R26's room, with no reply. V12

Provide appropriate care for residents who are continent or incontinent of bowel/bladder, appropriate
catheter care, and appropriate care to prevent urinary tract infections.
Level of Harm - Actual harm
Residents Affected - Few
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to ensure catheter changes were performed as
ordered and failed to ensure catheter care orders were in place for 2 of 3 residents (R6, R20) reviewed for
catheters in the sample of 14. This failure resulted in catheters having a gray discoloration for residents with
recurrent urinary tract infections (R6, R20), R6's urine was cloudy yellow with sediment, and R20's urine
was thick, foul-smelling, and amber in color.
The findings include:
1. On 9/14/23 at 10:05 AM, V10 and V11 (Certified Nursing Assistants - CNAs) transferred R6 to bed from
the wheelchair. V10 and V11 laid R6 on her back and removed her pants and incontinence brief. R6 had an
indwelling catheter inserted. The catheter was attached to a leg bag. The leg back was secured to R6's
right inner leg. There was cloudy yellow urine, with sediment draining into the leg bag. V11 used a
washcloth to cleanse R6's catheter tubing. The catheter tubing was discolored from the insertion site
(nearest the body) to the Y in the tubing. (This type of indwelling catheter had a Y at the distal end of the
tubing, one side connected to the drainage system and the other was used to inflate the balloon of the
catheter). The catheter tubing from R6's body to the beginning of the Y was a dark gray discoloration. The
tubing at the of the Y was a tan color (The original color of this type of indwelling catheter was tan). V10 and
V11 provided catheter care, emptied R6's leg bag, and attached R6's regular drainage bag.
R6's Face Sheet dated 9/14/23 showed diagnoses to include, but not limited to: TBI (traumatic brain injury),
asthma, diabetes, generalized muscle weakness, diabetes, need for assistance with personal cares,
difficulty walking, unsteadiness on feet, Extended Spectrum Beta Lactamase (ESBL) Resistance (a
multi-drug resistant organism that causes bladder infections (UTIs), anxiety, history of bladder infections,
neuromuscular dysfunction of the bladder, chronic obstructive pyelonephritis, retention of urine, vascular
dementia, depression, and bipolar disorder.
R6's facility assessment dated [DATE] showed R6 had long and short-term memory problems; required
extensive assistance from staff for transfers, personal hygiene, and toilet use; and had an indwelling urinary
catheter.
R6's Physician Visit dated 8/10/23 showed R6 had recurrent UTIs.
R6's Urology Visit Summary dated 4/26/23 showed R6 was seen for a UTI associated with an indwelling
catheter and recurrent UTIs.
R6's Lab Report dated 4/15/23 showed R6's Urine Culture was positive for ESBL.
R6's Physician Order Sheet dated 9/14/23 showed R6 had an order for catheter care every shift. This
document showed R6 had an order for Contact Isolation precautions (due to an UTI caused by ESBL),
initiated on 4/20/23. R6 had an order a 16 French (catheter size), 10 cc balloon change monthly and as
needed, to be initiated 4/20/23.
R6's Treatment Administration Records (TARs) dated June 2023 through [DATE] were reviewed. R6's TARs
showed R6's catheter had not been changed since 6/9/23 (3 months prior to this observation). R6's

TARs showed that R6's indwelling catheter was not changed monthly, as ordered.
Level of Harm - Actual harm
R6's Progress Notes were reviewed from 6/10/23 to 9/13/23. There were no entries that showed R6's
indwelling catheter had been changed. These progress notes showed R6 was hospitalized for ESBL from
4/14/23 - 4/20/23. R6's Progress Note dated 9/13/23 showed the facility had collected a urine specimen for
urinalysis and culture and sensitivity.
Residents Affected - Few
R6's Care Plan revised 1/11/23 showed R6 had an indwelling catheter related to a neurogenic bladder. The
interventions included Change per MD orders.
On 9/14/23 at 10:21 AM, V6 (Licensed Practical Nurse) said she was the nurse for R6's hall. V6 stated, I
think the catheters are changed monthly and PRN (as needed). There should be a doctor's order for that.
We (the nurses) should follow the physician's order. V6 said she thought the facility might have changed the
policy and she wasn't sure exactly. V8 (RN) walked up to the nurses' station. V6 asked V8 what the policy
was for changing the indwelling catheters. V8 stated, I know it has changed recently. I believe the catheter
change is now PRN (as needed), but I would have to check our policy to be sure. V6 said some reasons to
change an indwelling catheter PRN could be the catheter isn't flowing right, it's leaking, or it doesn't flush.
The surveyor asked V6 if discoloration of the catheter tubing was an indication to change the catheter. V6
said she wasn't sure what that meant. The surveyor described the dark gray, discoloration on R6's tan
catheter tubing. V6 replied, That would be concerning. They shouldn't change color. V6 said it is important
the nurses change the catheter to ensure it is working properly and not building up infection. V6 said R6
has had UTIs. The surveyor asked how the nurse knows when the catheter was changed last. V6 said she
would have to check the TAR. V6 reviewed R6's September TAR and stated, I don't see that the catheter
was changed in September, but this order says to change it monthly. V6 reviewed R6's TARs until she found
the last time R6's catheter change was documented. V6 stated, It looks like it wasn't changed since 6/9/23.
That's not right. It should have been changed. V6 informed V7 (LPN in training), Let's get those sizes (of the
catheters) written down. We'll need to change those. V6 said the facility's supply of catheters was kept on
the front hall.
On 9/14/23 at 10:40 AM, V1 (Administrator) said the facility has two types of catheters. The 100% silicone
that R20 needs (this catheter tubing is clear) and the silicone coated one that has latex (this catheter tubing
is tan). R6 used the tan catheter. The surveyor informed V1 that R6's catheter had a dark gray discoloration
from the insertion site to the Y on the catheter. V1 replied, I will have to take a look. At 11:15 AM, V1 said
she did see the discoloration on R6 and R20's catheters. V1 said both R6 and R20 were seen by urology. At
12:07 PM, V1 said the only policy related to catheters that the facility had was the Catheter Care Policy that
was provided. (This policy did not contain any information regarding when to change the indwelling
catheter.)
On 9/14/23 at 1:20 PM, V9 (Urologist) said R6 was seen in his office, V9 does not go to the facility. V9 said
he saw R6 in April 2023 for urinary tract infections. V9 said he expects the catheter to be changed monthly.
V9 said he would expect the facility to follow the physician's orders. V9 said he had never heard of
indwelling catheters being changed PRN. The surveyor informed V9 that R6's last catheter changed was
6/9/23. V9 replied, Well that's a month or two late. V9 said R6's catheter should not be discolored. V9 said
that should be an indication to change the catheter, but it really should be done monthly and this wouldn't
be an issue.
The surveyor asked for a catheter policy. The facility provided Catheter Care Policy (reviewed 7/28/23). This
policy does not include information regarding when to change an indwelling catheter. (V1

2. On 9/14/23 at 9:39 AM, V10 and V11 (CNAs) transferred R20 from her wheelchair to her bed, using a
total lift. R20 was laid on her back and her pants were removed. R20 had an indwelling catheter attached to
a leg back. The leg back was secured to her right leg. There was dark amber urine in the leg bag. V10 and
V11 provided catheter care. R20's catheter was gray from her body to the Y in the tubing. (R20's catheter
color is normally clear). V11 emptied R20's leg bag. The urine was sluggish to drain. V11 stated, It gets like
this from time to time. Her position doesn't help. R20 was lying on her back in bed with her right leg slightly
bent. The urine wasn't flowing freely down to the drain spot. V11 moved R20's leg, so the urine could be
drained. Thick, amber, foul-smelling urine slowly drained from the leg bag. There were strings of sediment
that were hanging from the drain spot. R20's urine appeared thick and was sluggish to drain. V11 (CNA)
said it gets like this sometimes.
Residents Affected - Few
R20's Face Sheet dated 9/14/23 showed diagnoses to include, but no limited to: chronic pain syndrome,
MRSA (Methicillin Resistant Staph Aureus) infection, multiple sclerosis, dysphagia, anxiety, depression,
generalized muscle weakness, seizures, and bipolar disorder.
R20's facility assessment dated [DATE] showed she had severe cognitive impairment; required extensive
assistance for personal hygiene and bed mobility; was totally dependent on staff for transfers and toilet use;
and had an indwelling catheter.
R20's POS dated 9/14/23 showed orders for an indwelling catheter, size 16 French with a 10 ml balloon.
Change PRN (as needed). R20 did not have orders of Catheter Care every shift.
R20's July 2023 to [DATE] TARs were reviewed. The last documented catheter change was 7/25/23. There
was no documentation of catheter care being provided every shift.
On 9/14/23 at 10:21 AM, V6 (Licensed Practical Nurse) said she was the nurse for R20's hall. V6 stated, I

2. R41's admission Record, printed by the facility on 9/13/23, showed she had diagnoses including vascular
dementia, severe, with behavioral disturbance, generalized muscle weakness, and need for assistance with
personal care. The admission Record showed R41 resides on the dementia care unit of the facility.
Residents Affected - Few
On 9/13/23 at 2:07 PM, V4 (Certified Nursing Assistant-CNA) was providing incontinent care for R41. V4
used one wash cloth to wipe R41's right groin area, folded the washcloth, and wiped R41's right groin a
second time. Stool was visible on the washcloth at this point. V4 folded the washcloth again, then wiped
R41's left groin area twice, folding the washcloth in between wipes. More stool was observed on the
washcloth when V4 wiped R41's right groin area. V4 folded the washcloth a fourth time and then wiped
down R41's middle, labial area. V4 placed the soiled washcloth in a garbage bag located on R41's chair. V4
picked up another washcloth to rinse, using the same technique. V4 placed that washcloth in the garbage
bag and dried R41's front side with a towel. V4 rolled R41 onto her right side, then picked up the same
visibly soiled washcloth she used to clean R41's front side and started cleaning stool from R41's buttocks.
V4 folded the cloth and wiped again, then placed the soiled washcloth back into the garbage bag. V4
grabbed the washcloth that she had rinsed R41's front side out of the garbage bag and used it to rinse
R41's buttocks. V4 then dried the area and placed a clean incontinent brief on R41 and pulled her pants up.
On 9/13/23 at 2:55 PM, V1 (Administrator/Registered Nurse-RN) said she would think a washcloth should
not be folded and used again after 2-3 times of folding the cloth. V1 said once the washcloth becomes
soiled, a new washcloth should be used. V1 said it is important to do this so bacteria are not introduced into
the opening of the body and to prevent UTIs (urinary tract infections).
The facility's policy and procedure titled Perineal Care, approved on 7/1/2019, showed the purpose of the
procedure was to provide cleanliness and comfort to the resident, to prevent infections and skin irritation,
and to observe the resident's skin condition. The policy showed 9. For a female resident: a. Wet washcloth
and apply soap or skin cleansing agent. b. Wash perineal area, wiping from front to back. (1) Separate labia
and wash area downward from front to back .(2) Continue to wash the perineum moving from inside
outward to and including thighs, alternating from side to side, and using downward strokes. Do not reuse
the same side of washcloth to clean the urethra or labia.
Based on observation, interview and record review the facility failed to sanitize resident equipment and
failed to provide peri care in a manner to prevent cross contamination for 3 of 3 residents (R31, R39, R41)
reviewed for infection control in the sample of 14.
The findings include:
1. On 9/13/23 at 7:45 AM, V6 (Licensed Practical Nurse) used a glucometer to perform a blood sugar check
on R31. V6 laid the glucometer on top of the medication cart after it was exposed to R31's blood. V6 did not
clean or sanitize the device in any way. V6 completed the medication administration for R31, then continued
onto the next resident's room to administer medications.
The facility supplied a list of residents that V6 was administering blood sugar checks on for 9/13/23 and
from the same medication cart. The list consisted of R31 and R39.
On 9/13/23 at 3:13 PM, V6 stated she should have cleaned the glucometer right after use. It has

sanitizing wipe and left if on for at least two minutes. There is the potential that germs could go from the
glucometer to the top of the cart and then get passed onto the next resident when their medications are
prepared.
On 9/13/23 at 3:26 PM, V2 (Director of Nurses, Infection Control Preventionist) stated the glucometers need
to be cleaned between residents and based on manufacturer instruction. It should be wiped off and left wet
as long as the manufacturer shows. It should be done after each use. It comes in contact with blood and
there is the potential for cross contamination between residents. Blood borne pathogens can be spread.
The facility's Super Sani-Cloth germicidal disposable wipes instructions states: To disinfect nonfood contact
surfaces only. Unfold a clean wipe and thoroughly wet surface. Allow treated surface to remain wet for two
(2) minutes. Let air dry.
The facility's Glucometer Disinfection policy last review dated 7/28/23 states: 5. The nurse shall use a
surface disinfectant to wipe the surface of the glucometer. The surface shall include all areas of the meter
excluding the read-out window. Follow manufacture guidelines for length of cleaning time.
