LVN E accessed the PICC line to Resident #43's right upper arm to infuse Cefepime 2 gram/100 ml without any break in infection control. When LVN E was questioned about who changed the PICC line dressings, she said the dressings should be changed by the RN's weekly but the LVN's could also change them.

DA-N ran the machine five times to try to get the water temperature up to required 120 degrees Fahrenheit, (F). On the fourth time the machine reached 118 degrees F, but on the fifth time it dropped back down to 116 degrees F.

During an interview on 01/09/24 @ 10:30 a.m., the Administrator said they had ordered a booster for the dish machine on 12/29/23 and was waiting for it to be delivered.
