Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on facility policies, clinical record review, observation, and staff interview, it was determined the facility failed to implement measures to prevent the potential for cross contamination during a dressing change for one of two residents (Resident R12), failed to track Enhanced Barrier Precaution (EBP, a type of precautions used to take care of residents) for four of four residents (R53, R64, R81, and R109), failed to follow proper use of personal protective equipment (PPE) for one of three units (Unit one), failed to implement an infection control program that included a system of surveillance to identify possible communicable diseases or infections for ten of ten months (November 2023 - August 2024), and failed to ensure that a comprehensive resident care plan was developed related to infection precautions for 5 of 5 residents (R2, R56, R58, R64, and R81). Residents Affected - Some Findings include: Review of facility policy Clean Dressing Change Policy dated 6/1/24, indicated wounds will be dressed using clean technique which avoids direct contamination of material and supplies. Review of Title 42 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) §483.80 - Infection Control defines hand hygiene as hand washing with soap and water and/or alcohol-based hand rub (ABHR). Staff involved in direct resident contact must perform hand hygiene (even if gloves are used): - Before and after contact with the resident - Before performing an aseptic (preventing infection) task - After contact with blood, body fluids, visibly contaminated surfaces or after contact with objects in the resident's room - After removing personal protective equipment (PPE - e.g., gloves, gown, facemask) Appropriate use of PPE includes, but is not limited to, the following: - Gloves worn before and removed after contact with blood or body fluid, mucous membranes, or non-intact skin - Gloves changed and hand hygiene performed before moving from a contaminated-body site to a clean-body site during resident care The facility must prevent infections through indirect contact transmission. This requires the decontamination (i.e., cleaning and/or disinfecting an object to render it safe for handling) of resident equipment, medical devices, and the environment. Equipment or items in the resident environment likely to have been contaminated with infectious fluids or other potentially infectious matter must be handled in a manner so as to prevent transmission of infectious agents (e.g., wear gloves for handling soiled equipment and properly clean and disinfect or sterilize reusable equipment before use on another resident).

Particular focus of the program will be conducting risk assessments, surveillance, reducing healthcare associated infections, limiting transmission of disease, promoting antibiotic stewardship, and report as necessary. Review of facility policy Comprehensive Care Planning Policy dated 6/1/24, indicated a plan of care will be established for every resident and updated on an as needed basis. Review of the clinical record indicated that Resident R12 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Review of Resident R12's MDS (MDS - a periodic assessment of care needs) dated 7/11/24, indicated diagnoses of anemia (too little iron in the body causing fatigue), gastroesophageal reflux disease (a digestive disease in which stomach acid irritates the food pipe lining), and artificial left hip joint. Review of a physician order dated 9/11/24, indicated to cleanse sacral (a triangular shaped bone at the base of the spine) wound with wound wash, pat dry, loosely fill wound depth and undermining (tunneling underneath the skin) with moistened gauze, cover with foam dressing twice a day. Review of physician order dated 9/4/24, indicated resident was on contact precaution (use of gowns and gloves required prior to entering room). During an observation of a dressing change on 9/11/24, at 11:30 a.m., Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) Employee E4 entered Resident R12's room without donning (putting on) isolation equipment prior to entering room. Once in room, LPN Employee E4 touched objects without gloves on. She then washed her hands, put on a gown and a pair of gloves. Observation of Resident R12 revealed the resident to be lying in bed and incontinence care needed prior to dressing change. LPN Employee E4 provided care, removed gloves, washed hands, and put on another pair of gloves. LPN Employee E4 set supplies for the dressing change on Resident R12's bedside table without cleaning the surface. She then laid a clean chux (a pad) down on the bedside table, opened and prepared the supplies, and dated the dressing. LPN Employee E4 cleansed the wound with the physician ordered wound cleanser and disposed of dirty supplies. LPN Employee E4 failed to change her gloves after cleaning the wound. LPN Employee E4 used a cotton tip applicator to assist in inserting moistened gauze into the wound, and then covered with foam gauze. LPN Employee E4 then disposed of all the dirty supplies, took off her gloves, washed her hands, and took off her gown. She then pushed the bedside table in front of Resident R12 without cleaning the table or with gloves on. LPN Employee E4 then washed hands. During an interview on 9/11/24, at 12:00 p.m. LPN Employee E4 confirmed the above observations during the dressing change for Resident R12 and that the facility failed to implement measures to prevent the potential for cross contamination during a dressing change.
