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 to help prevent the
development and transmission of communicable disease and infections for one (Resident #1) of three
residents reviewed for infection control practices.
Residents Affected - Few
The facility failed to ensure CNA A performed proper hand hygiene and glove changes while providing
incontinence care to Resident #1.
This failure could place residents at risk for the spread of infection.
Findings included:
Review of Resident #1's face sheet dated 01/10/25, revealed a 67- year- old female admitted to the facility
on [DATE] with diagnoses including frequency of micturition (urinating), constipation, muscle weakness and
Alzheimer's disease (neurological disorder).
Review of Resident #1's Quarterly MDS assessment dated [DATE] revealed Resident #1 required
substantial/maximal assistance with most activities of daily living (ADLs). Resident #1 was always
incontinent of bowel and bladder.
Observation of incontinence care for Resident #1 on 01/09/25 at 2:55p.m. revealed CNA A washed her
hands prior to donning gloves. CNA A removed Resident #1's brief that was soiled with urine and placed it
on the bed close to resident. She did not completely remove it. CNA A wiped the resident from front to
back. She retrieved a clean brief and placed it on top of the soiled brief. She did not change gloves but
continued to clean the resident. Her gloves were visibly soiled with urine. CNA A did not wash her hands,
change gloves, or perform hand hygiene before placing the clean brief underneath the resident. CNA A
changed her gloves, and retrieved the old, soiled brief and placed on a trash can. CNA A removed her
gloves and picked up the trash. She washed her hands before leaving Resident #1's room.
In an interview on 01/09/24 at 3:06 p.m. with CNA A, she stated she should have changed her gloves
before retrieving a clean brief and placing it underneath Resident #1. CNA A stated she has been in the
facility for 2 years and received infection control training last month. She said cross contamination was
going from clean to dirty. CNA A noted the resident could acquire an infection when she did not follow good
infection control practices including changing gloves before retrieving the clean brief. CNA A stated she did
not change her gloves because she was not thinking.
