their rooms on Styrofoam. Which I did not agree with, that is why lunch was served in the dining room. V1
was questioned about why the staff are not wearing PPE or using isolation bags or laundry isolation bags
while working with the symptomatic resident, V1 stated, I guess we should have. V1 stated, I did not have
anyone tested for anything. I think this is just a 24-48-hour bug. (V12), Medical Director, is in the building
now and he is looking at residents. V1 was questioned if the facility has a Gastrointestinal Norovirus policy,
V1 stated, I think so. I will have to look for it. V1 stated, that she expects staff to wash their hands after
working with residents, removing gloves, before putting on gloves and between each meal tray delivered.
V1 also, stated, that multiple use equipment should be sanitized after it is used on a symptomatic resident.
On 02/23/23 at 8:32AM, V1 stated, We have 2 new cases that came down with symptoms last evening R8
and R6. They have been isolated to their rooms and we were able to get a stool sample and I have sent it to
the lab as a STAT, (immediately). We should have the results this afternoon. V1 further stated, that residents
can come out of their rooms after they have been symptom free for 24-hours. V1 was questioned if she was
aware of the CDC, (Center for Disease Control), guidance documenting that resident should be in isolation
for 48 hours after the last symptom. V1 stated, that she was not aware of the CDC guidance.

know that they had a few residents and staff having GI symptoms. V1 told me they were isolating the
residents. I told them that they need to contact me with updates. V13 was questioned if she was aware of
the number of the residents that have come down with symptoms, V13 stated, that she did not realize that
many residents were affected. 16 residents noted on log, per GI event tracking Surveillance for Congregate
Setting Outbreak Log. V13 was asked about her feeling on residents being let out of isolation after
24-hours, and not using PPE or hand hygiene not being performed. V13 stated, I really didn't delve, (careful
or detailed search for information), that much into it when I spoke to them. I am really surprised that the
facility is having trouble, because they handled COVID so well. Isolation, PPE and basic handwashing are
normal things that should be done. V13 stated, If the facility does not have a policy and procedure, I would
think they would go to the CDC and follow their guidance on Gastrointestinal Norovirus.
On 02/27/23 at 9:15 AM, V2, Director of Nurses, stated, that all of the soiled linens and trash should have
been put in isolation bags.
