Educate residents and staff on COVID-19 vaccination, offer the COVID-19 vaccine to eligible residents and
staff after education, and properly document each resident and staff member's vaccination status.
Based on clinical record review, policy and document review, and staff interview, it was determined that the
facility failed to implement policies and procedures to ensure that each resident is offered the COVID-19
vaccine, when available, and if the vaccination requires multiple doses, the resident and/or representative
has the opportunity to accept or refuse the COVID-19 vaccine for one of four residents reviewed (Resident
2).
Findings Include:
A review of the facility's policy, titled Coronavirus (COVID-19) and COVID-19 Vaccine Policy, revised on
February 18, 2022, read, in part, The vaccine will be offered and administered to residents per the most
current Manufacturers', CDC [Centers for Disease Control], Federal, State, and/or local guidance.
The policy continued, If a vaccine requires multiple doses, or an additional 3rd dose or more, or booster,
educational information and consents will be completed for each dose administered. And Documentation of
vaccination for residents: Acceptance or refusal of the vaccine.
A review of electronic mail correspondence from the facility's pharmaceuticals provider dated October 4,
2024, read, Hello customers, we are pleased to announce that we have received the 2024-2025 Spikevax,
a vaccine indicated for immunization to prevent COVID-19. Also, For individuals previously vaccinated with
any COVID-19 vaccine, administer the dose of Spikevax at least 2 months after the last dose of COVID-19.
A review of Resident 2's clinical record revealed diagnoses that included chronic obstructive pulmonary
disease (COPD - a chronic lung condition that causes inflammation and narrowing of the airways, leading
to ongoing breathing difficulties) and chronic kidney disease (CKD - long-term condition where the kidneys
gradually lose their ability to filter waste products and excess fluid from the blood).
A review of Resident 2's immunization documentation revealed the most recent COVID-19 vaccination was
administered on February 29, 2024.
A continued review of Resident 2's clinical record revealed no documentation of communication with the
Resident and/or his Representative regarding the availability of the 2024-2025 Spikevax. Also, no
documentation of Resident 2 receiving the most recent vaccine offered by the facility's pharmacy.
Review of Resident 2's progress notes revealed he contracted the COVID-19 infection on December 8,
2024, and passed away on January 2, 2025.
An interview with the Director of Nursing on February 3, 2025, at 1:10 PM, revealed the facility had not
offered the most recent vaccine to Resident 2 or his Representative and stated, if the facility does not have
enough resident or staff interest in the COVID-19 vaccine, the facility does not order it from the pharmacy
due to cost and fear of waste of the vial of vaccine.
