Monument Healthcare Millcreek: Lab Test Failures - UT
Inspectors cited Monument Healthcare Millcreek, located at 1201 East 4500 South, for infection control failures involving a small number of residents. The deficiency was tagged F0880 and classified as carrying minimal harm or potential for actual harm.
The breakdown was procedural and specific. Staff were not consistently wearing disposable gowns and gloves before entering the rooms of residents on contact precautions for MRSA. Gloves were not always removed and hands cleaned before leaving the room. Staff touched surfaces in the environment after removing gloves, a practice that can carry pathogens from a contaminated room into the rest of the facility.
MRSA, or methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, is resistant to many common antibiotics. It spreads through skin contact and contaminated objects. In nursing homes, where residents often have wounds, catheters, or weakened immune systems, a single lapse in isolation technique can move an infection from one room to the next.
The contact precaution protocol inspectors cited is not complicated. Gown on before you enter. Gloves on before you touch anything. Remove both before you leave. Wash your hands. Do not touch shared surfaces after removing protective equipment. The steps exist precisely because MRSA does not announce itself, and by the time a second resident tests positive, the transmission has already happened.
Monument Healthcare Millcreek had a plan of correction on file with the state survey agency. What it contained was not included in the inspection record.
