residents on enhanced barrier precautions (EBP.) This affected two (Residents #11 and #13) of three

Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
1. Review of the medical record for Resident #13 revealed an admission date of 02/27/23 with diagnoses
including hypotension, gastrotomy, colostomy, obesity, and dysphagia.
Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment for Resident #13 dated 12/07/24 revealed the resident
had mild cognitive deficits and required substantial to total dependence with activities of daily living (ADLs.)
