Provide and implement an infection prevention and control program.
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 identify a potential viral infection, immediately
report signs and symptoms to the Medical Director, remove potential symptomatic staff from work, obtain
stool/emesis specimens, and delayed diagnosis. These failures resulted in continuation of the spread of an
unknown virus to 53 (R1 through R53) of 129 residents and 24 staff experiencing varying symptoms of
nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, chills and elevated temperature.
Residents Affected - Many
Findings include:
The facility's Infection Control Plan, Revised 6/2022, documents Infection control and prevention program
refers to a multidisciplinary program that includes a group of activities to ensure that recommended
practices for the prevention of healthcare-associated infections are implemented and followed by
Healthcare Personnel, making the healthcare setting safe from infection for residents. An effective Infection
Control Program utilizes the following components; Surveillance: monitoring residents and healthcare
personnel for acquisition of infection and/or colonization; Investigation: identification and analysis of
infection problems or undesirable trends; Prevention: implementation of measures to prevent transmission
of infectious agents and to reduce risks for device-and procedure-related infections; Control: evaluation and
management of outbreaks; and Reporting: provision of information to external agencies as required by
state and federal law/regulation. This same policy documents Outbreak: When symptoms suggesting and
infectious outbreak occur, and an investigation to define the nature and magnitude of the outbreak. The
goal of the investigation is to promptly identify problematic organisms, stop ongoing transmission and
reduce the risk of further events. A systematic approach is needed to verify the diagnosis, form a case
definition, create a line list, implement infection control and prevention measures, and contact (State
Agency) to report and maintain communication for further guidance. Actions may include but are not limited
to . Implementing policies to prevent the spread of infections that include promoting consistent adherence
to Standard Precautions, transmission based precautions and other infection control practices; Contract
with a lab to provide supplies needed, to collect and process any testing required. Include arrangements for
reporting results to any required authorities . Notify the local Department of Public Health, State Officials
and other key stakeholders and make arrangements for a more detailed investigation by experts if the
status of the outbreak warrants such measures; Develop a unit: maintain rooms to isolate residents as
needed, who have viral respiratory infections, gastroenteritis, and other infectious diseases that are
transmitted by airborne droplets, contaminated food or water, etc. so that new cases can be prevented .
Institute screenings for anyone entering the facility . The IP (Infection Preventionist) will develop a testing
place and response strategy to address infectious disease outbreaks. Pursuant to the plan and response
strategy, the facility shall test residents and facility staff for infectious diseases listed in Section 690.100 of
the Control of Communicable Diseases Code in a manner that is consistent with current guidelines and
standards of practice . The IP will arrange for testing of residents

On 7/20/23 at 2:48 pm, V7 Assistant Dietary Manager stated on 7/13/23 he was having some bodyaches
and a low grade temperature but he felt ok, tested for COVID and it was negative, called his supervisor and
was told to go ahead and go into work. V7 stated later in the day I had a diarrhea stool but that is not out of
the ordinary for me due to my stomach issues. V7 stated the next day (7/14/23) he still had body aches and
diarrhea but went to work and confirmed he did not call his supervisor. V7 stated he was off the weekend
(7/15 and 7/16) and returned to work on Monday (7/17/23) without symptoms. V7 stated that V20 [NAME]
for second shift went to the doctor on 7/12/23 and reported that the doctor tested her for strep and it was
positive, got medicine and then returned to work on Wednesday (7/17/23) and worked through 7/19/23 and
was sent home today (7/20/23) due to having diarrhea. V7 Assistant Dietary Manager also stated V21
Dietary Manager called in on Monday (7/17/23) because she wasn't feeling well and came back to work
yesterday (7/19/23) to do inventory and then got sent home. V7 stated he had been around his best friends
daughter who had thrown up a couple of times and wonders if he maybe he got something from her. V7

yesterday and the Health Department told us to stop the dining room meals and now all residents are
eating in their rooms. V1 Administrator stated V21 Dietary Manager went to her doctor yesterday and was
told she had a stomach virus but did not test V21. V1 also stated the facility is still waiting for the stool
culture results for R1, R2, and R9 and the lab said it could take two to five days to get results. On this same
date at 10:02 am V1 Administrator stated as of noon yesterday (7/20/23) everyone is eating in their rooms
and we placed a sign at the entrance table for visitors, and all staff have been inserviced and should be
wearing mask, gown and gloves when entering symptomatic resident rooms and washing their hands
before exiting the residents room. On this same date at 11:37 am, V1 Administrator stated the virus seems
to have started with V7 Assistant Dietary Manager who has chronic IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) and not
sure what to do about that. V1 also stated We are keeping everyone in isolation until 48 hours after they are
symptom free. The same with staff.
On 7/21/23 at 9:34 am, V6 LPN (Licensed Practical Nurse)/IP (Infection Preventionist) stated an
investigation was started on 7/19/23 because there were so many people who became symptomatic. V6
LPN/IP stated We traced it back to V7 Assistant Dietary Manager in the kitchen, who said that he had to
relieve himself during one of the meal services. V6 stated It started in the kitchen with V7 Assistant Dietary
Manager, so he didn't do something right. V6 LPN/IP stated the CNA's and Nurses were told if someone
had a loose stool they were supposed to let me know so we could stool/emesis samples but by the time we
got down there it was either on the floor, in the garbage can, or the staff had already cleaned it up. I was not
going to get a sample off the floor or from the garbage can. V6 LPN/IP stated stool samples were obtained
from R2 and R9 on 7/19/23 and from R1 on 7/20/23.
On 7/26/23 at 12:30 pm, V2 DON (Director of Nursing) stated she worked the morning of 7/19/23 on the
800 wing and was not aware of any of the residents having symptoms until that morning upon arriving at
the facility. V2 stated generally the staff call about everything and I would have expected them to notify
myself and V6 LPN/IP. They did not notify V6 LPN/IP either. V2 DON stated, I called V54 Medical Director
on the morning of 7/19/23 and told (V54) what was going on with symptomatic residents on the 500 and
800 wings and asked if we could do Norovirus tests and he said to go ahead and get stool samples. (V54)
said we should do four or five. V2 DON stated As of 7/19/23 we kept everyone symptomatic in their rooms
in contact isolation with sign and bin outside their room.

V2 DON stated residents who were not symptomatic were able to be in the dining room separated from
others and everyone was to wear a gown, gloves, and mask in symptomatic resident rooms. V2 DON stated
we had two residents with symptoms on the 17th but it is not abnormal for some residents to have diarrhea.
The evening of 7/18/23 is when everything really started happening. I was not aware. I do feel that if things
would have been started earlier, or we would have known, we could have helped stop the rapid spread of
this virus.
On 7/25/23 at 2:55 pm and 7/26/23 at 2:30 pm, V21 DM (Dietary Manager) stated she does not recall V7
Assistant Dietary Manager calling in to work sick this month. V7 Assistant Dietary Manager comes to work,
does his job, and knows if he is sick he should not be working. V21 DM stated she was on vacation the

no one reported anything to her, and stated they all (dietary staff) know that if they are ill with nausea,
vomiting, diarrhea or fever they cannot work. V21 stated she did not know that V7 Assistant Dietary
Manager had not been feeling well until she returned from her vacation. V21 DM stated V65 Dietary
Aide/Cook did call her on Sunday 7/10/23 while (V21) was on vacation and (V21) told V65 that she would
need to call V7 Assistant Dietary Manager. V21 stated she did remind V65 that it is her scheduled weekend
staff are supposed to try and find their own replacement before calling in and all V65 said was she was not
going to be able to find anyone to work and said I'll just go to work. V21 DM stated This to me is that you're
not really sick or you wouldn't be going to work. V21 DM stated again, They all know that if they are ill with
nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, fever they cannot work. V21 DM stated she did not know what happened while
she was gone on vacation.
