Monument Healthcare Millcreek: Care Order Failures - UT
Federal inspectors cited the facility on November 20, 2025, after finding that staff failed to consistently wear gowns and gloves when entering the rooms of residents on contact precautions, and were not always performing hand hygiene before leaving. The citation covered a few residents.
The failures were basic. Gowns are supposed to go on before entering the room, come off before leaving. Gloves get changed after contact with infectious material, fecal matter, wound drainage. Hands get washed before the door closes behind you. These are the steps that keep what's in one room from traveling to the next.
MRSA, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, resists most common antibiotics. Residents in nursing homes are already among the most vulnerable to serious infection: older, often with open wounds, catheters, or compromised immune systems. A lapse in precautions doesn't just put the colonized resident at greater risk. It puts everyone that staff member touches afterward at risk too.
The inspection report did not describe a specific harm event. Inspectors classified the level of harm as minimal or potential, and noted that few residents were affected. But "potential" in an MRSA context carries real weight. The bacteria doesn't announce itself. By the time an infection surfaces, the breach that caused it is long past.
Monument Healthcare Millcreek is located at 1201 East 4500 South in Salt Lake City.
