CNA G put on a pair of gloves and prepared the things needed for incontinent care. CNA G raised the bed
and removed the resident's blanket and pillows and put them on the resident's recliner. She pulled the
resident's dress up, unfastened the brief, and pushed it between the resident's legs. CNA G pulled some
wipes and cleaned the resident's lower abdomen. After cleaning the resident's lower abdomen, she used
the same wipes to clean the resident's front part. She did not get new wipes to clean the front part.
In an interview with CNA G on 12/03/2024 at 9:33 AM, CNA G stated she used the front to back technique
when she cleaned Resident #1's front part. CNA G said she pulled some wipes to clean the resident's belly
and front part. She said she folded the same wipes used to clean the belly before using them to clean the
resident's front part. She said she should have thrown the wipe away after each use to prevent the
microorganisms from the belly to go to the front part. She said what she did could cause a urinary tract
infection. She said she should be attentive of how she did incontinent care because the resident would be
at risk for infection. She said they had in-services for incontinent care but she was not able to apply it.
In an interview with ADON A on 12/03/2024 at 1:27 PM, ADON A stated the wipes should be discarded
after every stroke and not be reused because it could cause cross contamination and probable infection.

Resident #2's room and saw the fish oil sitting on the resident's recliner. She talked to the resident and said
that she would take the fish oil for now and would call the doctor for an order for the fish oil. The resident
complied. Resident #2 said he was taking the fish oil as a supplement.
In an interview with LVN D on 12/03/2024 at 12:39 PM, LVN D stated she was the charge nurse on
Resident #2's hall and did not notice that there was a bottle of fish oil on the resident's recliner. She said
there should be no medications inside the resident's room to prevent overdose and accidental choking. She
said it could be accidently ingested by confused residents or children could mistake it for candies. She said
she would look at the rooms of other residents and make sure there were no medications inside the rooms.
She said, also confused residents might overdose if they cannot remember if they had already taken the
medication or not.
In an interview with ADON A on 12/03/2024 at 1:27 PM, ADON A stated there should be no medications
inside the room because it was not safe. She said it could result in overdose and overmedication. She said
fish oil is a supplement but could still have adverse reactions when taking more than required. She said the
resident could accidentally poke her eyes if she was doing her eye drops by herself. She said they would
check if the residents had orders for the medication, would request an order if there was none, and would
let the residents know that the medication aide or the nurses would administer the medication. She said the
expectation was no medication would be inside the room and for the staff to be mindful if they saw
medications inside the room. She said she would do an in-service about medication storage and would also
check the room if there were medications with the residents.
In an interview with the DON on 12/03/2024 at 3:18 PM, the DON stated all the medications should be
inside the medication carts and administered by qualified staff. She said they should check the residents'
rooms during their rounds to see if there were medications inside the rooms of which they were not aware.
She said if a family member was the one bringing the medications, the family member should be educated
of the harm if the medications were taken by the resident without supervision. She said the resident might
overdose, another resident or a visitor might accidentally ingest the medication and there could be adverse
reactions especially if somebody who accidentally ingested the medications was allergic to the
medications. A child who accidentally swallowed the medication could choke from it. She said the
expectation was no medications would be inside the room. She said another expectation was for the staff to
be mindful and observant that if they see any medication, they should take appropriate actions to prevent
adverse outcomes such as choking and overdose. She said they would collaborate with the physician if the
medications were really needed, make orders for them, and place them in the cart for the nurses or aides to
administer. She said she would do an in-service about medication administration and making sure no
medications were inside the room.
In an interview with the Administrator on 12/03/2024 at 4:06 PM, the Administrator stated all medications
should be in the cart and not inside the residents' room. He said if there were medications inside the
residents' rooms, it could result in accidental ingestion and overdose, especially if nobody was monitoring it.
He said the residents could also choke if they were self-medicating and nobody would know. He said the
expectation was for the staff to make sure no medications were inside the room or where easily accessible
to other residents and visitors.

resident's recliner. After putting the blanket and pillows on the recliner, she hung the brief on the wooded
frame of the bed's foot side. The inside of the brief was in contact with the wooden frame. She pulled the

it on both sides. She washed her hands.
In an interview with CNA G on 12/03/2024 at 9:33 AM, CNA G stated hands should be washed before and
after doing incontinent care. She said gloves should be changed after cleaning the resident's bottom and
before touching the new brief. She said hands should be sanitized in between changing of gloves. She said
she forgot to wash her hands before performing incontinent care, sanitize her hands when she changed her
gloves, and change her gloves after cleaning the resident's bottom. She said her actions could result in
cross contamination and infection. She said she knew the reasons why the staff needed to do hand hygiene
but forgot to do so. She said she had in-services about incontinent care and hand hygiene but failed to
practice it. She also said hanging the brief on the wooden frame could also cause cross contamination.
In an interview with ADON A on 12/03/2024 at 1:27 PM, ADON A stated hand hygiene was included in all
the procedures of any care. She said the staff should do hand hygiene before and after incontinent care.
She said gloves should be changed after cleaning the residents' bottom and hands should be sanitized
before putting on a new pair of gloves. She said not performing hand hygiene and not changing the gloves
could result in cross contamination and probable infections. She also said the brief should not be hung on
the wooden frame because the wooden frame was presumed dirty. So in theory, whatever germs were on
the wooden frame would transfer to the brief. She said the expectation was for the staff to do hand hygiene
before and after every care, after changing their gloves, and would change their gloves when transitioning
from a dirty site to a clean site. She said another expectation was not to put the brief on anything presumed
dirty. She said the expectation was for the staff to be mindful when they performed incontinent care to
prevent infection. ADON A said she would do in-services about infection control and hand hygiene as soon
as the interview was done
In an interview with the DON on 12/03/2024 at 3:18 PM, the DON stated hand hygiene was the most
effective way to prevent cross contamination and infection. She said hands should be washed before and
after incontinent care. She said gloves should be changed after cleaning the resident's bottom and hands
should be sanitized before putting on a new pair of gloves. She said the brief should not be hung anywhere
to prevent transfer of anything dirty. She said the expectation was for the staff to wash their hands before
and after incontinent care, change their gloves when going from dirty to clean, and ensure the brief was
clean before putting it on the resident. She said she would do an in-service and skills check-off for infection
control and hand hygiene.
In an interview with the Administrator on 12/03/2024 at 4:06 PM, the Administrator stated staff should wash
their hands, change their gloves after touching anything soiled and sanitize their hands before putting on
new gloves. He said not washing the hands, not changing the gloves after touching soiled items, and not
sanitizing the hands, could contribute to cross contamination and infection. He said the expectation was for
the staff to follow the policy and procedures pertaining to infection control. He said he was not clinical and
would let the DON handle the issue about infection control.
