Provide and implement an infection prevention and control program.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on medical record review observation, staff interview, and review of the facility policy, the facility
failed to ensure proper hand hygiene and enhanced barrier precautions were followed during incontinence
care. This affected one (Resident #28) of three residents reviewed for incontinence care. The facility census
was 93 residents.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
Review of the medical record for Resident #28 revealed an admission date of 09/13/24 with diagnoses
including chronic bronchitis, depression, and traumatic ischemia of muscle.
Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment for Resident #28 dated 09/19/24 revealed the resident
had intact cognition and required setup assistance with eating, was dependent with toileting and bathing,
had a urinary catheter and was always incontinent of bowel.
Review of the care plan for Resident #28 dated 09/13/24 revealed the resident had an indwelling catheter
related to obstructive uropathy. Interventions included the following: perform catheter care every shift and as
needed, empty catheter bag every shift and as needed, maintain enhanced barrier precautions (EBP) due
to indwelling catheter, staff to check catheter tubing for kinks.
Observation on 10/09/24 at 11:33 A.M. of incontinence care for Resident #28 per State Tested Nurse Aide
(STNA) #10 revealed the resident was in EBP related to the urinary catheter. STNA #10 did not don a gown
before or during care. STNA #10 performed hand hygiene and applied gloves. Resident #28 had a large
bowel movement which STNA #10 cleaned with gloved hands. STNA #10 then applied clean linens and a
dry incontinence brief and adjust the resident's bed wearing the same soiled gloves.
Interview on 10/09/24 at 11:55 A.M. with STNA #10 confirmed Resident #28 was in EBP due to having an
indwelling urinary catheter but he did not don a gown before or during care. Further interview with STNA
#10 confirmed he cleaned bowel movement from Resident #28 with his gloved hands and then applied
clean linens to the bed and a dry incontinence brief to the resident and adjust the resident's bed wearing
the same soiled gloves.
Review of the facility policy titled Hand Hygiene dated August 2024 revealed all team members of the
facility would follow hand hygiene guidelines to reduce the incidence of health care associated infections.
Staff should wear gloves when contact with blood or other potentially infectious materials (body fluids,
secretions, and excretions) was likely. Staff should change gloves during patient care if moving from a
contaminated body site to a clean body site. Staff should remove gloves promptly after use, before touching
non-contaminated items and environmental surfaces.
