In addition, the physician order did not specify bilateral side rails for Resident 95 and no physician order for bilateral side rails for Resident 29. These failures had the potential to put the residents at risk for entrapment and serious injuries. Findings: The FDA issued a Safety Alert entitled Entrapment Hazards with Hospital Bed Side Rails. Residents most at risk for entrapment are those who are frail or elderly or those who have conditions such as agitation, delirium, confusion, pain, uncontrolled body movement, hypoxia, fecal impaction, acute urinary retention, etc., that may cause them to move about the bed or try to exit from the bed. Entrapment may occur when a resident is caught between the mattress and bed rail or in the bed rail itself. Inappropriate positioning or other care related activities could contribute to the risk of entrapment.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview, facility document, and facility P&P review, the facility failed to implement the antibiotic stewardship program. Residents Affected - Few * The facility failed to ensure two nonsampled residents (Residents 73 and 110) were accurately and timely reviewed for the appropriate use of antibiotics. This failure had the potential for inappropriate use and increased risk of drug resistant organisms. Findings: According to the CDC, the antibiotics are among the most frequently prescribed medications in nursing homes, with up to 70% of residents in a nursing home receiving one or more courses of systemic antibiotics over a year. Studies have shown that 40-75% of antibiotics prescribed in nursing homes may be unnecessary or inappropriate. Harms from antibiotic overuse are significant for the frail and older adults receiving care in nursing homes. These harms include risk of serious diarrheal infections from Clostridium difficile, increased adverse drug events and drug interactions, and colonization and/or infection with antibiotic-resistant organisms. Review of the facility's P&P titled Antibiotic Stewardship Program revised 12/19/22, showed the Infection Preventionist will review antibiotic utilization as part of the antibiotic stewardship program and identify the specific situations that are not consistent with the appropriate use of antibiotics, including clinical findings which do not indicate continued need for antibiotics. 1. Review of the Infection Prevention and Control Surveillance Log for September 2024 showed Resident 73 was on levofloxacin 500 mg (antibiotic medication) for pneumonia (an infection in the lungs caused by a bacteria) for six days.
