Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based
observations, interviews, and record review, the facility failed to maintain an Infection Prevention and
Control Program designed to provide a safe, sanitary, and comfortable environment and to help prevent the
development and transmission of communicable diseases and infections for 1 (Resident #115) of 3
residents observed for Infection Control.
Residents Affected - Few
CNA A failed to follow proper hand hygiene and cleansing of perineal area while providing incontinent care
to Resident #115.
These failures could place the residents at risk of cross-contamination and development of infections.
Findings included:
Review of Resident #115's Face Sheet, dated 11/14/2024, reflected that the resident was an [AGE]
year-old male admitted on [DATE]. Resident #115 was diagnosed with urinary tract infection, benign
prostatic hyperplasia (the prostate gland grows in size due to overgrowth in cells) with lower urinary tract
symptoms, and need for assistance with personal care.
Review of Resident #115's admission MDS Assessment, dated 07/21/2024, reflected that Resident #115
had a BIMs score of 10 which suggested moderate impairment of cognition. Resident #115's admission
MDS Assessment indicated that the resident was incontinent for bowel and bladder.
Review of Resident #115's Comprehensive Care Plan, dated 07/16/2024, reflected that Resident #115
required (dependent assist) for toileting hygiene.
Observation on 11/14/24 at 4:05 PM revealed during incontinent care of Resident # 115, after CNA A
placed resident in comfortable position, she removed her gloves and applied clean gloves. CNA A did not
sanitize between glove changes. CNA A retracted the foreskin of the penis, wiped half circle to tip of the
penis, then crumpled and re-wiped the same area using the same wipe. CNA A then wiped the opposite
half circle to tip of the penis and re-wiped using same wipe. She did not use one wipe per swipe. She then
replaced the foreskin, CNA A then proceeded to clean the catheter tubing from the urethra outward for
about three inches of tubing, then wiped again using the same wipe. She did not use one wipe per swipe.
CNA A then finished cleaning the scrotum and outward to the thighs properly. She then assisted Resident
#115 to his left side to begin cleaning the buttocks area. CNA A did not remove gloves, sanitize hands, and
apply clean gloves after cleansing front genitalia and prior to touching Resident #115 to assist him to his

provided to residents.
