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 that residents with indwelling urinary catheters receives appropriate treatment and services to prevent urinary tract infections to the extent possible for one (Resident #4) of three residents reviewed for Urinary Catheter or Urinary Tract Infection.-The facility failed to ensure that Resident #4 received care and services to avoid catheter-associated urinary tract infections to the extent possible as evidenced by not demonstrating sterile technique during indwelling urinary catheterization of Resident #4. This failure could place all residents requiring indwelling urinary catheters and catheter care at risk for catheter associated urinary tract infections or complications that could lead to serious harm.Record review of Resident #4's face sheet dated 12.23.2025 at 12:30 p.m. indicated he was a [AGE] year-old male admitted to this facility on 12.08.2025 with a diagnosis of obstructive and reflux uropathy (blockage of the passing of urine from the bladder), hyperlipidemia (high cholesterol level), muscle weakness, type two diabetes with hyperglycemia (high level of sugar in the blood), gastroesophageal reflux disease (relating to stomach acid), a fall, and encounter for orthopedic (related to bone or muscle) aftercare. Interview on 12.23.2025 at 2:58 p.m. with Resident #4 indicated an alert and oriented elderly male who stated he was admitted for physical therapy after a fall that required right knee surgery. He said he must have a catheter to help him urinate. He said the nurses removed his catheter earlier that day. He said he was uncomfortable and wanted to take a nap. He said, I wish they would hurry up and put the catheter back in I need to pee. [sic] Interview on 12.23.2025 at 3:45 p.m. with LVN E indicated she had worked at this facility for five years. She stated verbal orders from the NP had been received on 12.23.2025 to re-insert an indwelling urinary catheter for Resident #4. Observation for 12.23.2025 at 3:48 p.m., LVN E gathered supplies to include a sterile kit for the indwelling urinary catheter insertion for Resident #4. She explained the procedure to the resident and cleaned the surface of the bedside table to place supplies for the procedure. She washed her hands, put on PPE, and proceeded with the procedure. After LVN E opened the sterile indwelling urinary catheter kit, she stopped and looked down at the contents of the box. She stated, I can't remember how to proceed. [sic]. After approximately two minutes, LVN E turned to the surveyor and asked how to continue with the procedure. The surveyor asked how the facility policy and procedure guided the process. LVN E continued to stare at the contents of the indwelling urinary catheter box. LVN E was observed to pick up a drape used to protect skin, linens, and resident clothing against urine. She stated, I don't need this [sic] and was observed to lay the drape aside. LVN E took out two individually wrapped pairs of sterile gloves and put on one pair without washing her hands after removing dirty gloves. She was observed to not connect the urine drainage bag to the sterile indwelling urinary catheter tube prior to inserting the sterile tube into the urinary meatus (the opening leading to the interior of the urinary system). The drainage bag was not noted to be pre-connected. Interview with LVN E on 12.23.2025 at 4:16 p.m. indicated she realized she failed to maintain sterile technique by not washing her hands after removing dirty gloves to put on sterile gloves. She realized she failed to connect the urinary drainage bag to the end of the sterile catheter tube prior to inserting tube into the urinary meatus. LVN E stated her future expectation would be to review and follow policy and procedures to prevent the risk of introducing bacteria into a resident's bladder and causing a CAUTI. Interview with the DON on 12.23.2025 at 4:30 p.m. indicated the facility did not use written policies and procedures for inserting indwelling urinary catheters to male or female residents.
