Provide appropriate care for residents who are continent or incontinent of bowel/bladder, appropriate
catheter care, and appropriate care to prevent urinary tract infections.
Based on observation, facility policy review, clinical record review, and staff interviews, it was determined
that the facility failed to ensure residents received appropriate treatment and services to prevent urinary
tract infections and to promote dignity related to use of a foley catheter (small, flexible tube that can be
inserted through the urethra and into the bladder, allowing urine to drain) for one of one residents reviewed
for catheter use (Resident 6).
Findings Include:
Review of facility policy, titled Foley Catheter Care effective March 1996, revealed, The collection bag
should be placed below the resident, but not touching the floor, to allow for proper gravity drainage and
prevent backflow of urine up the tubing and into the collection bag. Collection bag covers, also called dignity
bags, are available and will be used to promote care for the resident to maintain or enhance their dignity
and respect and to prevent the collection bag from dragging on the ground.
Review of Resident 6's clinical record revealed diagnoses that included Alzheimer's disease (gradually
progressive brain disorder that causes problems with memory, thinking, and behavior) and retention of
urine.
Observation on September 6, 2023, at 1:18 PM, revealed Resident 6 laying in bed with their foley catheter
collection bag hanging on the side of the bed; the edge of the bag was touching the floor. Additionally, it
was observed that the collection bag and the urine inside was visible from the hallway. During the
observation, a visitor was present in the hallway. A later observation on that date, at 1:39 PM, revealed that
the collection bag had been emptied, but was still touching the floor, and was still exposed and visible from
the hallway.
During an interview with Employee 2 (Nurse Aide) on September 6, 2023, at 1:43 PM, she revealed that
Resident 6 used to have a dignity cover for their collection bag, but she was not sure where it went.
During an interview with the Director of Nursing on September 7, 2023, at 11:08 AM, she revealed that
Resident 6's catheter collection bag was replaced with one that had a built-in dignity cover.
