F 0880 Provide and implement an infection prevention and control program. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to ensure infection control policy and procedures for Covid-19 (a highly infectious respiratory illness) were implemented, for one of six employees reviewed, when: Residents Affected - Few 1. For Certified Nurse Aide (CNA) 1, the Employee's Screening Sheet (a log that employees fill out to self-report temperature, hand hygiene, fever or chills, cough, short of breath/difficulty breathing, fatigue, muscle or body aches, head ache, sore throat, new loss of taste/smell, congestion/runny nose, nausea/vomiting, diarrhea, pink eye, not feeling well) was accurately completed. 2. The Dietary Supervisor (DS) was sent home when she had signs and symptoms of respiratory illness (body aches, headache, sore throat, cough, and runny nose) on January 9, 2024, and January 10, 2024; These failures had the potential to increase staff and resident exposure and transmission of Covid-19 and/or other respiratory illnesses. Findings: 1. On January 17, 2024, the Employee's Screening Sheet, dated January 10, 2024, was reviewed. CNA 1, who worked the night shift, wrote just her first name on the log, no last name was entered. The screening for Covid-19 symptoms was left blank. There was no documented evidence a follow up assessment on CNA 1 was conducted by the IP or IP designee. On January 17, 2024, at 4:45 p.m., an interview with a concurrent record review was conducted with the Infection Preventionist (IP). The IP stated, during a facility Covid-19 outbreak, the Employee's Screening Sheet was expected to be filled out by every employee at the entrance to the facility prior to the start of their shift. The IP stated, the Employee's Screening Sheet was used to check for signs and symptoms of Covid-19 infection. The IP stated the employee should document and/or report symptoms of Covid-19 infection. The IP sated, if the employee failed to complete the screen, the IP or IP designee should re-assess the employee and either document accurate information to the screening log and/or send the employee home, if exhibiting signs and symptoms of respiratory illness. On January 22, 2024, at 10:05 a.m., during an interview with the IP, the IP stated the Employee's Screening Sheet is important to help them keep track of employees that have signs or symptoms of Covid-19 infection so they can get a rapid antigen Covid-19 test done. This is why all employees are expected to fill it out prior to every shift, if an employee has symptoms, a covid-19 rapid antigen test would be performed, and the employee sent home.
