Implement a program that monitors antibiotic use.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Based on a review of facility documentation, facility policies and staff interviews, it was determined that the
facility failed to maintain an effective antibiotic stewardship program that includes a system that includes
antibiotic use protocols and a system to effectively monitor antibiotic usage for four of four months of
antibiotic stewardship program data reviewed. (May 2024, June 2024, July 2024 and August 2024).
Residents Affected - Few
Findings Include:
A review of CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) guidelines, The core element of Antibiotic
Stewardship for Nursing Homes, revealed that Improving the use of antibiotics in healthcare to protect
patients and reduce the threat of antibiotic resistance is a national priority. 1. Antibiotic stewardship refers to
a set of commitments and actions designed to optimize the treatment of infections while reducing the
adverse events associated with antibiotic use.2 The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
recommends that all acute care hospitals implement an antibiotic stewardship program (ASP) and outlined
the seven core elements which are necessary for implementing successful ASPs.2 CDC also recommends
that all nursing homes take steps to improve antibiotic prescribing practices and reduce inappropriate use.
Nursing homes monitor both antibiotic use practices and outcomes related to antibiotics in order to guide
practice changes and track the impact of new interventions. Data on adherence to antibiotic prescribing
policies and antibiotic use are shared with clinicians and nurses to maintain awareness about the progress
being made in antibiotic stewardship. Clinician response to antibiotic use feedback (e.g., acceptance) may
help determine whether feedback is effective in changing prescribing behaviors.
Integrate the dispensing and consultant pharmacists into the clinical care team as key partners in
supporting antibiotic stewardship in nursing homes. Pharmacists can provide assistance in ensuring
antibiotics are ordered appropriately, reviewing culture data, and developing antibiotic monitoring and
infection management guidance in collaboration with nursing and clinical leaders.
Identify clinical situations which may be driving inappropriate courses of antibiotics such as asymptomatic
bacteriuria or urinary tract infection prophylaxis and implement specific interventions to improve use.
Perform reviews on resident medical records for new antibiotic starts to determine whether the clinical
assessment, prescription documentation and antibiotic selection were in accordance with facility antibiotic
use policies and practices. When conducted over time, monitoring process measures can assess whether
antibiotic prescribing policies are being followed by staff and clinicians.
Track the amount of antibiotic used in your nursing home to review patterns of use and determine the
impact of new stewardship interventions. Some antibiotic use measures (e.g., prevalence surveys) provide
a snap-shot of information; while others, like nursing home initiated antibiotic starts and days of therapy
(DOT) are calculated and tracked on an ongoing basis. Selecting which antibiotic use measure to track
should be based on the type of practice intervention being implemented. Interventions designed to shorten
the duration of antibiotic courses, or discontinue antibiotics based on post-prescription review (i.e.,
antibiotic time-out), may not necessarily change the rate of antibiotic starts, but would decrease the
antibiotic DOT.
