F 0880 Provide and implement an infection prevention and control program. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to maintain an infection prevention and control program designed to provide a safe, sanitary, and comfortable environment and to help prevent the development and transmission of communicable diseases and infections for 1 of 3 residents (Residents #12) reviewed for infection control. The facility failed to ensure LVN D followed proper infection control practices during medication administration on 9/26/25. This deficient practice could place residents at risk for exposure to pathogens causing infection resulting in diminished quality of life. Findings included: Record review of Resident #12's admission Record, dated 9/26/25, revealed the resident was re-admitted on [DATE] with diagnoses which included: Dry Eye Syndrome, Constipation, Hemiparesis (weakness or an inability to move one side of the body), Hemiplegia (paralysis or weakness to one side of the body) and Hyperlipidemia (elevated cholesterol). Record review of Resident #12's Order Summary, dated 9/26/25, revealed: Gabapentin Oral Tablet 100 MG (Gabapentin) Give 1 tablet by mouth two times a day. Observation of medication administration for Resident #12 on 9/26/25 beginning at 3:48 pm revealed LVN D had a capsule lying on a piece of paper on top of the medication cart. Further observation revealed LVN D picked up the capsule with her bare hand and placed it into the medication cup. LVN D said it was a Gabapentin capsule and she had placed it there because she thought Resident #12 required her medications to be crushed. During interview on 9/26/25 at 4:17 pm, LVN D said she had put the Gabapentin aside because it was a capsule and could not be crushed. LVN D further stated she did not have a reason for placing the capsule on top of the paper on the medication cart instead of in a medication cup. LVN D said this could put the resident at risk for infection, adding that medications should be handled in a clean manner, for example: not putting medications on top of the cart and performing hand hygiene. During interview on 9/26/25 at 5:35 pm, ADON B said placing a medication capsule on top of a paper on the medication cart was not acceptable due to cross contamination. ADON B further stated medications should go from the blister pack or bottle straight to a medication cup. ADON B said not following this procedure could cause infection. Record review of the facility's policy Medication Administration revised 10/24/22, read: .Medications are administered by licensed nurses, or other staff who are legally authorized to do so in this state, as ordered by the physician and in accordance with professional standards of practice, in a manner to prevent contamination or infection.13. Remove medication from source, taking care not to touch medication with bare hand.
