Based on Observation, Interview, and Record Review the facility failed to: perform hand hygiene, contain
soiled linen and follow current standards of infection control during pressure ulcer dressing change. This
applies to 3 of 3 (R51, R167 and R168) residents reviewed for infection control in a sample of 24.
Findings include:
1) On 4/16/24 at 11:35 AM, observed R167 standing at his bedside leaning forward, holding onto his
wheelchair handles, supported by V5 (CNA-Certified Nursing Assistant) on his right side and V8
(WCD-Wound Care Doctor) bent over trying to measure the wounds on either side of his gluteal folds. After
measurement, V8 did not do hand hygiene or change his gloves, touched the door handle to open the door
and left the room. V8 again came into the room and explained the status of the wound to R167. During the
conversation, R167 sat on the wheelchair with his wound open and no clean field established. After V8
finished explaining, V8 and V5 helped R167 to stand up again. V7 (WCN-Wound Care Nurse) cleansed the
wound with normal saline and placed the soiled gauze on R167's bed. V7 did not do hand hygiene or
change her gloves. V7 applied sterile bordered gauze on the wound, held it with one hand and with the
other hand took a sterile self-adhesive dressing. As V7 was applying the self-adhesive dressing on R167, it
fell on the wheelchair. V7 picked it up and applied the same dressing on the wound.
2) On 4/16/24 at 12:35 PM, observed R51 was in right lateral position and V8 (WCD) was measuring the
wound on R51's sacrum. Observed there was no clean field established on the bed near R51's wound.
After the measurement, V8 (WCD) went around the bed to face R51 and explained the status of his wound
to R51. As R51 was listening and talking to V8 (WCD), he turned slightly. Observed that R51's back
including the open wound touched the bedsheet. Meanwhile, V7 (WCN-Wound Care Nurse) was standing
near R51, observing the resident. After V8 (WCD) finished talking to R51, he removed his gloves, no hand
hygiene done, touched the door handle to open the door of the room and left the resident's room. V7
(WCN) repositioned R51 onto his right lateral position, did not clean the wound, applied gauze and
self-adhesive dressing on the wound.
3) On 4/17/24 at 11:07 AM, observed soiled linen on the floor in R168's room. V5 (CNA) stated, she was
making R168's bed and threw the linen on the floor as she did not have a hamper or a plastic bag in hand.
On 4/17/24 at 11:10 AM, V5 (CNA) and V6 (CNA) stated they were not supposed to throw soiled linen on
the floor and that it should be contained in a plastic bag before transporting it to the soiled utility room, to
prevent cross contamination.
On 4/18/24 at 10:10 AM, V2 (DON-Director Of Nursing) stated, soiled linen must not be thrown on the floor.
V2 stated, soiled linen must be placed directly into a covered hamper. V2 (DON) stated, After touching the
wound, soiled gloved must be discarded and hand hygiene must be done before touching any other
surface. V2 stated, wound care nurse did not follow infection control principles while doing the dressing for
R167 and R51.
