was on top of the N95 respirator mask when leaving Residents #7 and #48's COVID-19 positive room. She
also confirmed she did not use eye protection while in Residents #7 and #48's COVID-19 positive room.
She stated she could not find the protective goggles and was looking for the goggles in resident rooms.
Interview on 10/10/23 at 7:50 A.M. with the Administrator indicated staff were required to place a surgical
mask over the N95 respirator mask when going into COVID-19 positive resident rooms and discard the
surgical mask when exiting the resident rooms. The Administrator confirmed STNA #815 had not donned
eye protection when entering Residents #7 and #48's room who was COVID-19 positive and she did not
remove her N95 respirator mask and surgical mask upon exiting the resident's room per the CDC Infection
Control guidelines.
Review of the CDC Infection Control Guidance updated 05/08/23 revealed face protection when used solely

personal protective equipment (PPE) such as a NIOSH Approved particulate respirators with N95 filters or
higher during the care of a patient with COVID-19 infection, facemask during a surgical procedure or during
care of a patient on Droplet Precautions, they should be removed and discarded after the patient care
