On 4/8/24 at 3:13 PM, V2 (DON/Director of Nursing) stated she wasn't sure why there were no signs posted on the door of R2, R21, and R23's rooms. V2 stated they are on enhanced precautions and the carts have been there since she started working at the facility in January, but she doesn't remember there ever being any signage on the doors.

V12 (CNA) entered R12's room to assist V9. V9 and V12 were wearing gloves and neither V9 nor V12 donned any other PPE. V9 and V12 assisted R12 to reposition in bed and V9 (LPN) removed the dirty bandage from R12's coccyx. V9 removed the glove from her right hand and left the dirty glove on her left hand. V9 stated she didn't have two gloves to be able to replace both gloves. V9 did not perform hand hygiene on her right hand. V9 attempted to don a glove on her right hand without touching it with the dirty gloved, left hand. V9 was able to get the glove most of the way on her right hand by wiggling her fingers into place. V9 was not able to get the glove completely in place and pulled it the rest of the way onto her right hand using her left hand that still had the dirty glove on it. V9 cleaned the Stage 4 pressure ulcer located on R12's coccyx using her right hand. V9 applied the ordered treatment with a tongue depressor using her right hand. V9 attempted to take the sticky back off the dressing using her right hand only but was not able to get it completely off, so she used both hands to apply the dressing to the pressure ulcer. V9 removed both gloves, left the room, and washed her hands in the bathroom located across the hall from R12's room. This surveyor reviewed the Enhanced Precaution sign located on R12's door with V9. V9 stated R12 doesn't have any growth in her wound so it is probably in place just because R12 has a wound. V9 stated she never wears anything other than gloves when she administers the treatment to R12's pressure ulcer. On 04/10/24 at 3:49 PM, V2 (DON) stated hand hygiene should be performed after removing a dirty dressing.

Notes document in part Contact Precautions: are designed to reduce the risk of transmission of epidemiologically important microorganisms by direct or indirect contact. Direct contact transmission involves skin to skin contact and physical transfer of microorganisms to a susceptible host from an infected or colonized person, such as occurs when personnel turn resident, bathe residents, or also can occur between two residents (e.g:by hand contact), with one serving as the source of infectious microorganisms and the other as a susceptible host. Indirect contact transmission involves contact of susceptible host with a contaminated intermediate object usually inanimate in the resident's environment. Contact precautions apply to specified residents known or suspected to be infected or colonized(presence of microorganism in or on a residents, but without clinical signs and symptoms of infection) with epidemiologically important microorganisms that can be transmitted by direct or indirect contact. Staff procedures for contact precautions include: Use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) including gloves and gowns for all interactions that may involve contact with the patient or the patients environment. Donning PPE upon room and entry and properly discarding before exiting the patient room is done to contain pathogens, use disposable or dedicated patient care equipment when accessible for things such as blood pressure cuffs, thermometers, etc, limit transportation or movement of the patient outside of the room to medically-necessary purpose, and patient should be in a single patient room if available, if unavailable then decision should be made balancing risks to the other patient.
