The urine culture identified the organisms staphylococcus aureus, colony count greater than 100,000 and pseudomonas aeruginosa, colony count greater than 100,000. Continued review of the microbiology report revealed the identified organisms were resistant to the antibiotic ciprofloxacin. Review of the medication administration record dated 06/19 and 07/19, revealed Resident #13 was administered ciprofloxacin 500 mg tablet per the physicians order for a urinary tract infection on 06/27/19, 06/28/19, 06/29/19, 06/30/19, 07/01/19, 07/02/19, and 07/03/19. Interview on 07/02/19 at 3:30 P.M., with the Director of Nursing (DON) revealed the ciprofloxacin medication was ordered for Resident #13 while at the hospital for evaluation and treatment. The DON reported the ciprofloxacin was ordered to treat a urinary tract infection. Continued interview with the DON verified the microbiology report collection date 06/21/19, identified the organisms were resistant to ciprofloxacin. The DON further verified the facility failed to identify Resident #13's urinary tract infection organism was resistant to the prescribed antibiotic. The DON further verified the physician was not notified of Resident #13's current orders for Ciprofloxacin and it was started on 06/27/19, six days after the order. Review of the policy titled Stewardship Policy dated 10/17, revealed widespread use of antibiotics has resulted in an alarming increase in antibiotic resistant infections and a subsequent need to rely on board spectrum antibiotics that might be more toxic and expensive. Antibiotic stewardship consists of coordinated interventions aimed at treating infections while promoting appropriate use. The policy revealed the facility will provide regular feed back on antibiotic use to clinicians about appropriate antibiotic use.
