Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observations, interviews, and record reviews, 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 (Resident #1) of 5 residents
viewed for infection control. - LVN B did not wear appropriate PPE when performing wound care on
Resident #1, when he was on Enhanced Barrier Precautions. This failure could place residents and staff at
risk for cross-contamination, spread of infection and could potentially affect all others in the building.
Findings include: Record review of Resident #1's undated face sheet, revealed he was a [AGE] year old
male who admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses of sepsis (infection throughout the body),
urinary tract infection, neuromuscular dysfunction of bladder (bladder does not empty), atrial fibrillation
(heart beat is not regular), and acute embolism and thrombosis of deep veins of lower extremity (blood clot
in the vein of lower leg). Resident #1's admission MDS Assessment had not been completed yet. Record
review of Resident #1's Baseline Care Plan only had a Focus of Sepsis with a goal to not exhibiting signs of
infection. The interventions included administering antibiotics (Ceftriaxone). There was also a Focus
regarding tasks to be documented in the POC about his bowel movements, bath/showers, food intake, etc.
Those were the only two areas on the Baseline Care Plan. Record review of Resident #1's Physician
Orders revealed the following orders from MD G:- Zosyn in dextrose (piperacillin-tazobactam-dextrs)
[antibiotic] 3.375 g/50ml IV Q8hr, 10pm, 6am, 2pm. Ordered on 12/3/25.- Colostomy [hole through
abdomen so stool can drain into a pouch on outside] Care Every Shift. Ordered on 11/21/25.- Enhanced

drain urine], colostomy, and wounds. Ordered on 11/25/25.- Foley catheter: Diagnosis: Neurogenic bladder
dysfunction. Ordered on 11/21/25.- Wound Treatment Order: Bottom of R great toe/foot: Clean with NS/WC,

was performing wound care. LVN B did not have a gown on and only had gloves on. Resident #1 was
observed to have a colostomy to his abdomen, a foley catheter hanging on the side of the bed, and a PICC
line to his LUA. In an interview on 12/3/25 at 10:10am, LVN B said EBP was to protect everyone from
infections, the staff and the residents. He said when a resident was on EBP, staff were supposed to wear a
gown and gloves during treatment. LVN B said he was supposed to have worn a gown when he was
performing wound care, but he forgot to put it on. LVN B said if he did not wear the appropriate PPE the
resident and himself were at risk for getting infections. In an interview on 12/3/25 at 3:49pm, the DON said
EBP was for any residents with invasive lines. She said the staff had to wear a gown and gloves, and they
were worn during any treatment that was given to the resident. She said EBP was to prevent any
contamination from the resident or the staff. The DON said she provided training on EBP at the monthly
staff meetings and the last one was in November 2025. Record review of the facility's policy and procedures
on Enhanced Barrier Precautions (June 2025) read in part: It is the policy of this facility to implement
enhanced barrier precautions for the prevention of transmission of multidrug-resistant organisms. Enhanced
barrier precautions (EBP) refer to an infection control intervention designed to reduce transmission of
multidrug-resistant organisms that employs targeted gown and gloves use during high contact resident care
activities.An order for enhanced barrier precautions will be obtained for residents with any of the following:
Wounds (e.g., chronic wounds such as pressure ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, unhealed surgical wounds, and
chronic venous stasis ulcers) and/or indwelling medical devices (e.g., centrallines, urinary catheters,
feeding tubes, tracheostomy [tube inserted into hole in throat]/ventilator tubes [machine that breathes for
you], hemodialysis catheters [line into vein for dialysis], PICC lines, midline catheters) even if the resident is
not known to be infected or colonized with a MDRO. (Peripheral IVs, continuous glucose monitors, insulin
pumps, or ostomies without an associated indwelling medical device are not an indication for EBP.).The
Infection Preventionist will incorporate periodic monitoring and assessment of adherence to determine the
need for additional training and education.High-contact resident care activities include: Device care or use:
central lines, urinary catheters, feeding tubes, tracheostomy/ventilator tubes, hemodialysis catheters, PICC
lines, midline catheters, Wound care.Enhanced barrier precautions should be used for the duration of the
affected resident's stay in the facility or until resolution of the wound or discontinuation of the indwelling
medical device that placed them at higher risk.
