Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to perform hand hygiene and follow
enhanced barrier precautions. This applies to 3 of 3 (R6, R7 and R12) residents reviewed for infection
control in a sample of 25.
Findings include:
1. On 4/29/25 at 1:06 PM, observed R6 being wheeled into his room by V8 (CNA-Certified Nursing
Assistant), followed by V10 (CNA) with a mechanical lift to transfer R6 from his wheelchair to bed. R6 had a
urinary catheter. Outside of R6's room on the wall was a poster stating R6 is on EBP (Enhanced Barrier
Precautions). Neither V8 nor V10 wore gowns. V8 provided perineal care to R6 without wearing a gown.
After wiping the buttocks and genitals of R6, V8 did not remove the soiled gloves or perform hand hygiene
and applied a fresh clean disposable brief. Wearing the same soiled gloves, V8 adjusted R6's bed linen and
then, removed her gloves, tied up the garbage bag, touched the door and the doorknob, and left the room,
all without performing hand hygiene.
On 4/29/25 at 1:15 PM, V6 (LPN-Licensed Practical Nurse) walk into the room of R6 with wound supplies in
her hand. V6 did not wear any gown. V6 donned gloves, cleaned the wound on R6's left leg, and placed the
soiled gauze on the bedside table. Without changing her gloves, V6 applied a clean adhesive bordered
dressing on the wound. Without changing her gloves, V6 handled R6's bedding and covered up R6,
removed her gloves, took the soiled used gauze, and without performing any hand hygiene, touched the
door and the doorknob on her way out of the room. V6 went to a clean caddy with PPE (Personal Protective
Equipment), took a plastic bag from it, put all the soiled items in it, tied and discarded it in the trash can of
the shower room at the end of the hallway and used hand sanitizer.
On 4/25/25 at 1:14 PM, V5 (RN) stated, when a resident is on EBP, gown and gloves must be worn when
providing care for residents with wounds or indwelling medical devices.

must be followed by all staff as per policy to prevent transmission of infections.

no gown. R7 had a urinary catheter. Outside of R7's room on the wall was a poster stating he is on EBP.
After checking the blood sugar, V7 removed her gloves and held them in her hands and did not perform any
hand hygiene. V7 wheeled R7 out of the room and discarded the dirty gloves into the sharp's container on
