at 2:20 PM, observed R67 on her chair with the urinary bag on the floor. R67 was alert, oriented x 3 and
stated that she is ready to go & take her shower. Meanwhile, V21 (CNA-Certified Nursing Assistant) picked
up the urinary bag and placed it under the blanket near the feet of R67. R67's record review showed R67
was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses to include spinal stenosis (C1-C4), quadriplegia and
chronic obstructive pyelonephritis. R67's care-plan dated 12/3/24 showed, 'Clean catheter bag with vinegar
and water solution, hang to dry. Attach clean catheter bag to resident'.
On 1/7/25 at 2:25 PM, observed a urinary bag with no cap on the spout, hanging on the handle bar in the
bathroom, in R67's room.
On 1/7/25 at 2:28 PM, V21 (CNA) stated, everyday morning, she disconnects R67's urinary bag from the
catheter, rinses it with vinegar & water solution & hangs it to dry in the bathroom. V21 (CNA) stated, the
one that is already washed & hung in the bathroom by the previous shift CNA, she would fix that onto R67's
catheter.
On 1/7/25 at 2:35 PM, V20 (LPN-Licensed Practical Nurse) stated, Urinary catheter is changed once a
month and as needed, per orders. The urinary bag with tubing is cleaned everyday and a new bag is
applied every two weeks and as needed. V20 (LPN) stated, twice a day (morning and night), the bag is
disconnected from the urinary catheter, rinsed with water and vinegar solution, and is hung in the bathroom
to dry. The one that the previous shift cleaned is applied to the pt. Thus the two bags are switched for a
couple weeks.
On 1/8/25 at 3:00 PM, V3 (IP-Infection Preventionist) stated, morning and evening shift staff clean the
urinary bag. They remove the existing bag, clean it with vinegar solution (4 capful of vinegar in 3 cups of
water). After rinsing it with this solution, it is hung in the resident's bathroom and covered in a plastic bag to
dry. Meanwhile, the bag that was cleaned by the previous shift would be connected to the pt. V3 (IP) stated,
this is the practice of the facility for all pts with urinary catheter.
On 1/8/25 at 3:00 PM,V3 (IP) stated, the urinary catheter system must be kept closed, as much as
possible, to prevent infection. Leaving the bag open to air and reconnecting to the urinary catheter of the
resident is a source of infection for the pt. V3 (IP) stated, it is ideal to use a new bag every time the system
is disconnected. V3 (IP) stated, disconnecting, cleaning & re-using the bag is a source of infection for the
pt.
On 1/9/24 at 9:50 AM, V2 (DON-Director of Nursing) stated, the urinary bag is disconnected and cleaned
twice a day to keep the system clean. V2 (DON) stated, they are trying to keep the system as clean as
possible. V2 (DON) stated, she in-serviced the CNAs on this practice. V2 (DON) stated, they have not
received approval from the facility MD (Medical Director) or Urologist for this practice nor is there a
physician's order for it.

Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to properly provide urinary catheter
care for 2 of 2 residents (R44, R67) reviewed for urinary catheter care in a sample of 19.
The findings include:
1. On January 8, 2025 at 10:14 AM, V18 (CNA/Certified Nurse Assistant) said he changed R44's catheter
bag from the hanging bag to the leg bag. V18 said he washed the catheter bag by taking two capfuls of
vinegar and water and pouring it into a piston with a syringe in it. V18 said he then pushed the vinegar and
water mix into the tubing and the catheter bag and swished it around in the bag and then emptied it into the
toilet. V18 said he then does this process again before following it up with water. V18 said he then puts the
catheter bag into a plastic bag to dry. V18 said he would put the leg bag on during the day and the hanging
catheter bag at bedtime. V18 showed the surveyor the catheter bag, which said the catheter bag was sterile
and said not to re-sterilize. On January 9, 2025 at 9:54 AM, V18 said V3 (IP/Infection Preventionist) told
them to wash the catheter bags during an in-service.
On January 8, 2025 at 10:10 AM, V5 (RN/Registered Nurse) said R44 has a suprapubic catheter, and the
CNAs change the bag twice a day. V5 said they wash the bag with vinegar and hang it in the bathroom to
dry. V5 said the leg bag is used for the day and the regular hanging bag is used during the night.
On January 8, 2025 at 12:21 PM, V17 (Nephrology Nurse Practitioner) said it was recommended to replace
the whole catheter set at least once every 30 days. V17 said it was not recommended to disconnect the
catheter system because it increases the risk of infection as it would break the sterility and increase the risk
of infection.
R44's face sheet shows diagnoses including Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, gastro-esophageal
reflux disease, urinary tract infection, neuromuscular dysfunction of bladder, chronic kidney disease, and
benign prostatic hyperplasia without lower urinary tract symptoms. R44's POS (Physician Order Sheet)
showed to Change catheter bag and tubing every 4 weeks on Tuesdays one time a day every 4 weeks on
[Tuesday] for UTI (Urinary Tract Infection) precaution starting tomorrow. Give Bactrim DS prior to and after
[catheter] change.

licensed pharmacist.
Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to dispose of controlled medication
and verify the accuracy of controlled medication logs for residents with controlled medications.
Residents Affected - Some
This applies to 4 out of 4 (R57, R5, R26, and R44) residents reviewed for controlled medications in a
sample of 19.
Findings include:
1. On 1/08/2025 at 9:30 AM, V4 (Licensed Practical Nurse/LPN) was asked to verify the controlled
medications located in the 2-East medication cart. V4 said nurses confirmed they completed the
end-of-shift handoff count of controlled medications by signing the accountability record log. V4 reviewed
the log and confirmed the log for the AM shift on 1/08/2025 was not signed by the incoming morning nurse.
V4 said R26 had an open medication bottle of Clonazepam 0.5 mg (milligrams) with 42 tablets. V4 then
said R26 did not have an Individual Controlled Drug Administration Record log to verify the medication's
quantity. V4 said that nurses should ensure that all controlled medications have Individualized Controlled
Drug Administration Record logs to verify the proper count of each medication. R26 had another bottle of
Clonazepam 0.5 mg with 9 tablets. V4 reviewed and confirmed that the medication's Individual Controlled
Substance Record log said the last removed tablet was on 1/07/2025 and there should be a total of 10
tablets available. V4 said nurses needed to log every removed controlled medication in their Individual
Controlled Substance Record logs when removed to ensure accuracy and prevent discrepancies.
The document titled Shift Change Accountability Record for Controlled Substances for January 2025
showed multiple omitted nurses' signatures including for the 1/08/2025 AM shift.
R26's Individual Controlled Substance Record log for Clonazepam 0.5 mg tablets dated 12/24/2024,
showed the last logged removed tablet was on 1/07/2025 at 6 PM and there should be an amount
remaining of 10 tablets. The log also had missing signatures for tablets removed on 1/03/2025 at 9 AM and
12:00 PM.
R26's MAR (Medication Administration Record) for January 2025 said R26 last received Clonazepam 0.5
mg by mouth at 9 AM.
R26's Order Summary Report dated 1/08/2025 showed an active order for clonazepam Oral Tablet 0.5 MG
(Clonazepam) Give 1 tablet by mouth three times a day for anticonvulsant.
2. V4 continued to remain present during the following observations:
R5's Hydrocodone-APAP 5-325 mg medication punch card was observed with the #7 pill slot punched open
with a pill inside, the slot was covered with a piece of cloth tape.
R5's Order Summary Report dated 1/08/2025 showed R5 did not have an active order for Hydrocodone.
R5's Controlled Drug Administration Record Tablet log for Hydrocodone showed the medication was
dispensed on 8/21/2024 and R5's last removed tablet was on 8/23/2024.

Residents Affected - Few
This applies to 2 of 2 residents (R64, R44) reviewed for infection control in a sample of 19.
The findings include:
1. On January 8, 2025 at 12:03 PM, V14 (Restorative Aide/CNA-Certified Nurse Assistant) was in R64's
room and was not wearing a gown. R64's doorway showed he was on EBP, with gowns and gloves in an
isolation cart outside the room. V14 provided incontinence care, assisted in changing his clothes, and
assisted in transferring the resident from the bed to the wheelchair.
On January 9, 2025 at 10:10 AM, V14 said if a resident was on EBP, the staff should wear gloves and a
gown.
On January 9, 2025 at 10 AM, V16 (RN/Registered Nurse) said the staff should wear a gown and gloves
