Provide and implement an infection prevention and control program.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to establish and maintain an infection prevention
and control program with a system for preventing, identifying, and controlling infections and communicable
diseases for all residents, staff, visitors, and other individuals providing services based upon national
standards for 1 (A-Tower) of 2 halls reviewed for infection control.
Residents Affected - Some
The facility failed to have an effective protocol in place to prevent the spread of COVID-19 that followed
nationally accepted standards for contact tracing testing or broad-based testing after CNA A tested positive
for COVID-19 on 12/29/23. The facility had not implemented testing on days 1, 3, or 5 to identify others who
may have been exposed.
These failures could place residents and staff at risk for cross-contamination and the spread of infection.
Findings included:
Interview on 01/10/24 at 8:50 AM with the Administrator and DON revealed the facility did not have any
COVID positive cases. The DON stated CNA A tested positive for COVID on 12/29/23. The Administrator
and the DON stated CNA A was on vacation for 4-5 days prior to testing positive, her last day of work was
on 12/24/23. The DON stated CNA A was assigned to A-Tower prior to testing positive. The DON stated
they were only testing symptomatic staff and residents, and they tested anyone who had close contact with
CNA A.
Observation on 01/10/24 between 9:40 AM - 10:30 AM of A-Tower revealed no observations of residents
showing any symptoms of COVID-19. There were 24 residents residing on A-Tower.
Interview on 01/10/24 at 12:20 PM with LVN B revealed she was the assigned nurse for A-Tower. She
stated CNA A was one of the CNAs assigned to her hall. She stated residents had been tested for
COVID-19; however, she could not recall when the last time they were tested. She stated they have COVID
tests available to use for resident who show symptoms of COVID.
Interview on 01/10/24 at 12:26 PM with LVN C revealed he was the nurse assigned to B-Tower. He stated
the facility was only testing residents who were showing signs and symptoms of COVID. He stated they
have tests available at the facility. He stated if a resident is exposed for COVID they would monitor for signs
and symptoms of COVID and if they do have symptoms they would test. He stated staff and residents had
not been tested and could not recall when the last time a resident was tested for COVID.

identify residents, visitors and team members with clinical features and an epidemiologic risk for the
COVID-19. We will adhere to federal and state/local recommendations that protect our residents and team
members from the spread of infectious disease, including COVID-19 and COVID-19 variants .
Skilled follow CDC guidance for Health care Settings: Quarantine will apply to residents who are not up to
date with all recommended COVID-19 vaccine dose and who have had close contact with someone with
SARS-CoV-2 infection should be placed in quarantine after their exposure even if viral testing is negative.
Team members caring for confirmed or suspected COVID-19 residents should use full PPE. Residents can
be removed from Transmission-Based Precautions after day ten following the exposure (day 0) if they do
not develop symptoms. Although the residual risk of infection is low, healthcare providers could consider
testing for SARS-CoV-2 within 48 hours before the time of planned discontinuation of Transmission-Based
Precautions. Team Members are required to immediately report symptoms of infectious/contagious illness
or possibility of exposure to COVID-19 to his or her direct supervisor and the community director of human
resources.
The Infection Preventionist or Director of Nursing will collaborate with the team member to identify
individuals, equipment, and locations the team member encountered.
Review of the CDC's Interim Infection Prevention and Control Recommendations for Healthcare Personnel
During the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) Pandemic, last updated on 05/08/23, accessed on
01/10/24 on the CDC website reflected:
.Nursing Homes .Stay connected with the healthcare-associated infection program in your state health
department, as well as your local health department, and their notification requirements. Report
SARS-CoV-2 infection data to National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN) Long-term Care Facility (LTCF)
COVID-19 Module. See Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) COVID-19 reporting
requirements.
Section 2.
Placement of residents with suspected or confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection
Ideally, residents should be placed in a single-person room as described in Section
If limited single rooms are available, or if numerous residents are simultaneously identified to have known
SARS-CoV-2 exposures or symptoms concerning for COVID-19, residents should remain in their current
location.
Responding to a newly identified SARS-CoV-2-infected HCP or resident
When performing an outbreak response to a known case, facilities should always defer to the
recommendations of the jurisdiction's public health authority.
A single new case of SARS-CoV-2 infection in any HCP or resident should be evaluated to determine if
others in the facility could have been exposed.
The approach to an outbreak investigation could involve either contact tracing or a broad-based approach;
however, a broad-based (e.g., unit, floor, or other specific area(s) of the facility) approach is preferred if all
potential contacts cannot be identified or managed with contact tracing or if

contact tracing fails to halt transmission.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Perform testing for all residents and HCP identified as close contacts or on the affected unit(s) if using a
broad-based approach, regardless of vaccination status.
Residents Affected - Some
Testing is recommended immediately (but not earlier than 24 hours after the exposure) and, if negative,
again 48 hours after the first negative test and, if negative, again 48 hours after the second negative test.
This will typically be at day 1 (where day of exposure is day 0), day 3, and day 5.
Due to challenges in interpreting the result, testing is generally not recommended for asymptomatic people
who have recovered from SARS-CoV-2 infection in the prior 30 days. Testing should be considered for
those who have recovered in the prior 31-90 days; however, an antigen test instead of a nucleic acid
amplification test (NAAT) is recommended. This is because some people may remain NAAT positive but not
be infectious during this period.
Empiric use of Transmission-Based Precautions for residents and work restriction for HCP are not generally
necessary unless residents meet the criteria described in Section 2 or HCP meet criteria in the Interim
Guidance for Managing Healthcare Personnel with SARS-CoV-2 Infection or Exposure to SARS-CoV-2,
respectively. However, source control should be worn by all individuals being tested.
In the event of ongoing transmission within a facility that is not controlled with initial interventions, strong
consideration should be given to use of Empiric use of Transmission-Based Precautions for residents and
work restriction of HCP with higher-risk exposures. In addition, there might be other circumstances for
which the jurisdiction's public authority recommends these and additional precautions.
If no additional cases are identified during contact tracing or the broad-based testing, no further testing is
indicated. Empiric use of Transmission-Based Precautions for residents and work restriction for HCP who
met criteria can be discontinued as described in Section 2 and the Interim Guidance for Managing
Healthcare Personnel with SARS-CoV-2 Infection or Exposure to SARS-CoV-2, respectively.
If additional cases are identified, strong consideration should be given to shifting to the broad-based
approach if not already being performed and implementing quarantine for residents in affected areas of the
facility. As part of the broad-based approach, testing should continue on affected unit(s) or facility-wide
every 3-7 days until there are no new cases for 14 days.
If antigen testing is used, more frequent testing (every 3 days), should be considered
