record review, interview, and facility policy review the facility failed to notify Resident #12's physician that he

facility census was 23.

congestive heart failure, type two diabetes mellitus, and diarrhea unspecified.

vancomycin 250 milligrams (mg) (antibiotic) four times daily on 03/19/24.
Review of the physician's order dated 03/20/24 and discontinued on 04/02/24 revealed Resident #12 was to

Residents Affected - Few
admitted to the facility late on 03/19/24. He had been diagnosed with c-diff in the hospital and began
vancomycin treatment on 03/17/24. The DON confirmed Resident #12 was in contact isolation from the
time of admission until the order was discontinued on 04/02/24. She reported Resident #12 did go to an
outside physician's appointment on 03/21/24 but at the time Resident #12 was not having any loose stools
and had no fever. She confirmed the facility sent Resident #12 but did not notify the physician of the
diagnosis or his current condition prior to sending him to the appointment.
Review of the undated facility policy titled isolation of a resident with infectious disease revealed residents
are transported as follows, appropriate barriers such as masks and impervious dressing are used to
prevent transmission of organisms when isolated residents leave their rooms, the facility is to notify
personnel in the area to which the resident is to be taken if precautions are to be used, and if the transport
vehicle is contaminated with infectious material, do not remove the vehicle from the room until disinfected
by environmental services.
This deficiency represents non-compliance investigated under Complaint Number OH00152318.
