Ensure that nurses and nurse aides have the appropriate competencies to care for every resident in a way that maximizes each resident's well being. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interviews, and record review, the facility failed to have sufficient staff with the appropriate competencies and skill sets to provide quality care for 1 of 12 staff reviewed for nursing services. The facility failed to ensure that MA M renewed her certified nurse aide license. This failure could affect and diminish the resident's quality of life by potentially placing the residents at risk of not receiving competent and skilled care to assure resident safety and maintain the highest practicable physical, mental, and psychosocial well-being of each resident according to their individual comprehensive care plans. Findings include: Record review of Texas Unified Licensure Information Portal (TULIP) for MA M revealed her Nurse Aide certification number expired on [DATE]. Interview on [DATE] at 3:25 PM with MA M revealed that she was not aware that her CNA certification expired and assumed that her med aide license automatically renewed her NA license. She stated that she was working as a CNA on the floor taking care of residents in the facility that day. She confirmed she was not supposed to work with her expired licensure as it was against the law. Interview on [DATE] at 2:15 PM of HR stated that she just started working in that position and it was a mess in the Human resources records. She was currently in process of verifying the licensure of staff to maintain more accurate records and notify staff members that their licensure is about to expire. She stated that she was going to notify MA A of her expired license but got distracted and did not do it. She stated that the staff member with expired license is not supposed to work in the facility. Interview on [DATE] at 2:25 PM of the Director of Nursing revealed that she was responsible for ensuring all nursing staff have their current licenses with current training. She admitted that she overlooked the expired license of MA M. Interview of the Administrator on [DATE] at 5:34 PM revealed that verification and alerting staff of their upcoming license expiration date was Human Resources and the DON's responsibility, and ultimately his as Administrator. He stated that each licensed staff member should have current licenses and completed training requirements for those licenses. He admitted that insufficient training and expired licenses can put residents at risk for inadequate quality of care. Record review of the facility's Training Requirement Policy dated [DATE] revealed that training requirements should be met prior to staff independently providing services to residents annually and as necessary based on the assessment. The Director of Nurses maintains a training schedule and documentation system for completed training by all staff and volunteers.

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 designed to provide a safe, sanitary, and comfortable environment and to help prevent the development and transmission of communicable diseases and infections for 1 of 5 residents (Resident #97) reviewed for infection control. The facility failed to ensure CNA E was following infection control protocol during urinary catheter care and peri-care for Resident #97 by not changing her gloves when cleansing the catheter tubing and doing peri-care on 09/10/25. This failure could place residents at risk of transmission of disease and infection. Findings included: Record review of Resident #97's undated face sheet reflected a [AGE] year-old female who was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Her diagnoses included psoriasis vulgaris (Also known as chronic plaque psoriasis, is a common autoimmune skin disorder characterized by well-defined, red, scaly patches on the skin.), erythema intertrigo (a local infection of the skin and subcutaneous tissue), atrial fibrillation (A disease of the heart characterized by irregular and often faster heartbeat.), acute and chronic respiratory failure (an acute and chronic condition where the lungs cannot provide enough oxygen to the body or remove enough carbon dioxide.), congestive heart failure (a long-term condition that happens when your heart can't pump blood well enough to give your body a normal supply.), encephalopathy (A medical term used to describe a disease that affects brain structure or function. It causes altered mental state and confusion.), cognitive communication deficit, and a non-pressure chronic ulcer of buttock. Record review of Resident #97's PPS MDS assessment following hospital stay, dated 08/11/25, reflected a BIMS score of 15, which indicated no cognitive impairment. The assessment further reflected Resident #97 had an indwelling urinary catheter, and required partial to moderate assistance with most of her activities of daily living and she had a manual wheelchair for mobility. Record review of Resident #97's Order Summary Report dated 09/10/25 reflected, Foley catheter care every shift for urinary catheter use. and Enhanced Barrier Precautions due to foley catheter and wound every shift. Record review of Resident #97's Treatment Administration Record dated 09/10/25 reflected, Foley catheter care every shift for urinary catheter use. and Enhanced Barrier Precautions due to foley catheter and wound every shift. Observation on 09/10/25 at 1:57 PM revealed peri-care and indwelling catheter care was conducted for Resident #97 by CNA E and CNA F. During Foley catheter care, CNA E pulled one wipe at a time from the package without changing her gloves when cleansing the catheter tubing and doing peri-care, which contaminated the resident's package of wipes, and had the potential to cross-contaminate the resident. Interview on 09/10/25 at 2:12 PM with CNA E revealed she had forgotten to pull the wipes from the package for Resident #97 before doing her foley catheter care and peri-care. CNA E stated this could lead to cross-contamination and an infection to the resident. CNA E further stated she had received training on infection control, conducting peri-care and Foley catheter care. Interview on 09/11/25 at 5:38 PM with the DON revealed she had been working here almost 4 months. She stated she had been trained on infection control, and she had done infection control modules, EBP, handwashing, PPE, peri-care, and handwashing. The DON stated she had just reinstated her Infection Preventionist certification. The DON stated the adult wipes should have been pulled from the package prior to providing care. She stated the policy for hand washing when providing care was to use gloves when providing peri-care. The DON stated sometimes the gloves become torn or soiled, and all staff were to remove soiled gloves, conduct hand hygiene, put on a clean pair of gloves, and pull all the wipes out of the package needed to provide care. The DON stated if staff did not conduct proper hand hygiene and pull enough wipes from the package to provide care, it could lead to cross contamination, and if there were

not enough wipes the peri-care might not get done properly and the resident could get an infection. She further stated the ADON and herself monitored to ensure staff are washing hands and using wipes in a hygienic manner by having training competencies that they have been doing with all staff, and as staff member evaluations come up, the facility was evaluating their performance and progress. Interview on 09/11/25 at 6:07PM with the ADM revealed he had been working in the facility for 11 months. The ADM stated he had been trained on infection control and hand hygiene. He stated staff members should have pulled the wipes needed before providing care. The ADM stated the DON, and all department heads should be monitoring their staff for proper hand hygiene during all levels of care in the facility. The ADM further stated the consequence was resident could pick up a bug during peri-care, a urinary tract infection, or a wound could become infected. Record review of facility's policy and procedure, dated 10/24/2022, titled, Infection Prevention and Control Program reflected: This facility has established and maintains 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 as per accepted national standards and guidelines.
