F 0690 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some Provide appropriate care for residents who are continent or incontinent of bowel/bladder, appropriate catheter care, and appropriate care to prevent urinary tract infections. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to ensure a resident who was incontinent of bladder received appropriate treatment and services to prevent urinary tract infections for three of four residents (Resident #1, Resident #2, and Resident #5) reviewed for catheter and incontinence care. 1. The facility failed to ensure CNA B provided appropriate perineal care for Resident #1 when he failed to clean the resident's penis, scrotum, and pubic area on 10/07/25. 2.The facility failed to ensure CNA B provided appropriate catheter and perineal care for Resident #2, who was being treated for a urinary tract infection, when he failed to change the surface of the peri-wipes when cleaning the resident's penis, scrotum, and perineal area, failed to wipe the catheter tubing from the tip of the penis downward and failed to keep the urinary drainage bag below the bladder while providing care on 10/07/25. 3. The facility failed to ensure CNA B and CNA C maintained the urinary catheter drainage bag below Resident #5's bladder while they transferred the resident with a mechanical lift and while providing incontinence care and a bed bath on 10/07/25. These failures could place residents at risk for not receiving appropriate care to address their incontinence and could increase the risk of urinary tract infections.Findings included: 1. Record review of Resident #1's Face Sheet dated 10/7/25 reflected a [AGE] year-old male with an admission date of 11/27/24. Diagnoses included fracture of left femur, (thigh bone) mild intellectual disability and history of trans ischemic attacks (a brief stroke-like attack resolving within minutes to hours).

F 0690 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some bed bath. Both staff washed their hands, put on gloves and gowns. CNA B retrieved a urinal and proceeded to empty the resident's urinary drainage bag, which contained approximately 320 cc of clear yellow urine. Both staff hooked the mechanical lift sling to the lift and CNA C unhooked the urinary catheter drainage bag and laid it on the resident's lap. CNA B instructed CNA C to hang the urinary bag on the lower rung of the mechanical sling, which she did, but as they were raising the lift, Resident #5 pointed towards his feet, and CNA C unhooked the urinary drainage bag and once again placed it on the resident's lap. Urine was observed in the tubing draining back toward the residents body. The resident was transferred from the recliner onto his bed. Both staff rolled the resident side to side to remove the sling and CNA C unfasted the brief and provided catheter care. CNA B then placed the urinary drainage bag onto the bed, and CNA C told him to place it back on the bed rail. CNA B stated no it was fine on the bed. Both staff rolled the resident over on his side revealing he had large soft bowel movement. CNA C wiped from the front to the back, changing wipes with each swipe. CNA C then removed her gloves and put on new gloves without performing hand hygiene and both staff proceeded to provide resident his bed bath with the urinary drainage bag on the bed. In an interview on 10/07/25 at 11:15 a.m. with CNA B when asked about the proper steps for catheter care and incontinence care he stated he was supposed to go from front to back and wipe away from the body down the catheter tube. He stated he realized he had not cleaned Resident #1's front, which is why he opened up his brief, but stated he should have cleaned all of his penis and scrotum. He stated Resident #1 usually used a urinal but stated he did have accidents on occasion. He stated he was not sure if he had spilled the urinal since he was not soaked when he changed him. He stated he was supposed to provide catheter care every time they did incontinence care, and he had failed to do that for Resident #2. He stated he was supposed to wipe once and change the surface of the wipes and did not realize he had not done that. He stated he knew the catheter bag was to remain lower than the bladder but did not think it was an issue placing it on the bed. In an interview with CNA C on 10/07/25 at 11:40 a.m. she stated she knew she was supposed to keep the urinary drainage bag below the resident bladder but stated Resident #5 liked to hold the bag and she did not want to be rude. She stated she knew they were not supposed to lay the urinary drainage bag in the bed because it could not drain laying in the bed and tried to get CNA B to put it on the bed rail.

She stated she could only assume they were nervous. She stated the Lead CNA does skills checks on all of the CNAs and works closely with them on the floor. She stated the risk of having the urinary bag above the bladder was the back flow of urine which would lead to infection and not changing the surface of the wipes or cleaning from front to back was the introduction of germs. An interview with the Lead CNA on 10/07/25 at 1:20 p.m. she stated catheter care was to be performed anytime the staff provided incontinence care and staff were to clean the peri area including penis and scrotum for male residents then moving toward the buttocks. She stated they were to change the surface of the wipes with each stroke. She stated that by not providing accurate incontinence care it placed residents at risk for urinary tract infections, skin breakdown and overall poor hygiene. She stated the staff had also been instructed to maintain the urinary drainage bag below the bladder at all times. She stated she worked directly with the CNAs, and they all knew how to do it correctly. She stated she thinks they just got nervous.
