Williamsburg Post Acute: Infection Control Gaps - VA
Williamsburg Post Acute & Rehabilitation failed to designate an infection preventionist from May through August 2025, federal inspectors found during a November complaint investigation. The facility's former Assistant Director of Nursing, who had overseen infection control, left in April.
Inspection records revealed widespread gaps in infection tracking. The July surveillance log was incomplete for five residents, missing critical details including infection onset dates, diagnostic test results, antibiotic treatments, and resolution dates. Multiple months from May forward showed similar deficiencies in tracking logs, infection criteria documentation, and monthly reports.
"We had had several people overseeing the facility's infection control program since the former Assistant Director of Nursing had left in April and they had not filled that position," the Interim Director of Nursing and Regional Director of Clinical Services told inspectors.
The facility's own policies required an infection preventionist with specialized certification to oversee the program. The job description specified certification in Infection Control and Epidemiology as preferred qualification.
Training certificates showed coverage gaps. The former Interim Director of Nursing completed CDC certification from August 20 through October 20, 2025. The current Interim Director received certification starting October 20. But inspectors found no evidence of a qualified infection preventionist during the nearly four-month period from May 1 through August 20.
Federal regulations require nursing homes to designate qualified infection preventionists responsible for collecting infection data, analyzing trends, consulting on prevention strategies, and training staff on evidence-based practices.
The facility provided no additional information when administrators were informed of the violations during the inspection's conclusion.
