**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure, for one of (Resident A) five residents,
residents with a multidrug- resistant organism (MDRO-bacteria and other microorganisms that have
developed a resistance to one or more classes of antimicrobial drugs) was placed in a single room or
cohorted with other residents with the same MDRO infection, according to the facility's policy and
procedure.

Findings:
On August 5, 2024, at 9 a.m., an unannounced visit was conducted at the facility for the investigations of
three complaints.
On August 5, 2024, at 10 a.m., two Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs) were observed caring for a
resident in bed one, wearing gloves. A sign outside the room, indicated, Contact Isolation (a set of
precautions used in healthcare facilities to prevent the spread of germs from patients with illnesses that can
be transmitted through direct or indirect contact). A cart was observed outside of the room, next to the
doorway, containing personal protective equipments (PPE - equipment worn to minimize exposure to
hazards that cause serious workplace injuries and illnesses).
On August 5, 2024, at 10:05 a.m., an interview was conducted with the CNA. The CNA stated she did not
know why the contact isolation sign was on the door. The CNA stated a contact isolation sign means we are

other staff member said she only needed to wear gloves. The CNA stated only bed three (Resident A)
required contact isolation, the residents in bed one and two bed were okay. The CNA stated she did not
know why bed three was placed on contact isolation.
