Develop and implement a complete care plan that meets all the resident's needs, with timetables and
actions that can be measured.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to develop and implement a person-centered
comprehensive care plan to include measurable objectives and timeframes to attain or maintain the
resident's highest practical physical, mental, and psychosocial well-being for 2 of 5 (Resident #1 and #2)
residents reviewed for comprehensive care plans in that:
The facility failed to revise or update Resident #1's care plan to reflect the need and order for Enhanced
Barrier Precautions (EBP).
The facility failed to revise or update Resident #2's care plan to reflect the need and order for Contact
Precautions.
This failure could affect the residents by placing them at risk for not receiving appropriate interventions or
care to meet their current needs.
The findings included:
Record review of Resident #1' s face sheet dated 04/29/25 revealed an [AGE] year-old male with an
admission date of 03/11/25.
Record review of Resident #1' s care plan initiated 03/27/25 revealed a care plan for an indwelling foley
catheter, but no care plan or interventions for EBP.
Record review of Resident #1's physician orders dated 04/28/25 revealed an order for EBP.
In an observation on 04/29/25 at 9:35 AM it was revealed Resident #1's room had an EBP sign outside of
the door.
Record review of Resident #2' s face sheet dated 04/29/25 revealed a [AGE] year-old female with an
original admission date of 02/02/23, and a current admission date of 06/10/23.
Record review of Resident #2' s care plan initiated 02/03/23 revealed no care plan for C. Diff (Clostridium
Difficile is an infection in the colon caused by bacteria), and no care plan or interventions for Contact
Precautions.
Record review of Resident #2's physician orders dated 04/21/25 revealed an order for Contact Precautions
for C. Diff.

In an observation on 04/29/25 at 9:42 AM it was revealed Resident #2's room had a Contact Isolation sign
outside of the door.
In an interview with CNA-A, on 04/29/25 at 9:35 AM, she stated residents were on EBP or contact
precautions to help prevent cross contamination and infections, and the signs helped them know what to
wear when providing care to the residents. She also stated the CNAs did not use the care plans, and care
plans were something the nurses used to keep updated information about the residents.
In an interview with RN-B, on 04/29/25 at 9:44 AM, she stated residents were on EBP or contact
precautions so the staff knew the proper PPE to wear and to prevent cross contamination and possible
infection. She also stated she had not known how to access the care plan to check for precautions because
the floor nurses did not really use the care plan. She agreed that the nurses working on the floor should
have known how to access and use the care plan. After searching, she stated she could not find Resident
#1's EBP care plan or Resident #2's Contact Precautions care plan, but it was definitely something that
should have been care planned so the nurses and staff were aware of any precautions, changes, or
updates with these residents.
In an interview with the DON on 04/29/25 at 10:00 AM, she stated the types of residents that were placed
on EBP included residents with C. Diff, foley catheters, Gastrostomy tubes, and/or open wounds. The DON
stated if a resident had a foley catheter or C. Diff, it should have been care planned. After searching, the
DON was unable to find an EBP care plan for Resident #1 or a Contact Isolation care plan for Resident #2.
She stated care plans were supposed to be used as a communication tool for the staff and nurses, as well
as to ensure residents received the best possible care. She stated the nurses did not use the care plans
though because this was real life, and the nurses were too busy and did not have time to read resident care
plans. The DON also stated that was why they had other tools such as the [NAME] and other forms to keep
the nurses updated on each resident. She also stated that even though they did not really use the care
plans, they should have known how to access them and how to use them, and if the nurses were not
properly aware of a resident's isolation status, cross-contamination and infection could occur. The DON
stated the MDS nurse was the one who updated the clinical care plans.
In an interview with the MDS nurse on 04/29/25 at 11:15 AM, she stated she was aware that some of the
care plans were missing, and she had been doing an audit today with her supervisor that double checked
any residents that had an issue that qualified for EBP or Contact Precautions was care planned. She stated
the IDT team met once per week, usually on Wednesdays, and went over any updates or changes that
needed to be made to the care plans, as well as any updates and changes regarding infection control
between meetings got relayed to her by the infection control nurse. Infection control relayed the information
when she placed a resident on precautions, and then the MDS nurse updated the care plans. She stated
she was aware of the precautions, but she forgot to update the care plans. The MDS nurse stated the
nurses on the floor should have known how to use the care plans, but they were too busy on the floor most
of the time, so anytime there was something new added to the care plan, she actually went to the nurses
and updated them. She also stated these care plans just got overlooked on Resident #1 and Resident #2
because there had been a GI outbreak, and a lot going on, and that was the reason these two care plans
got overlooked. The MDS nurse stated if the care plan was not updated appropriately, nurses or other staff
could have provided care to a resident without having known the proper precautions to take or proper PPE
to wear, and cross-contamination could have occurred.
