SUMMARY STATEMENT OF DEFICIENCIES
During an observation on 11/05/25 at 9:45 AM, Staff A, a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN), performed hygiene and catheter care for Resident #7.
The urinary drainage bag and tubing noted with urine were positioned on the bed next to the resident's feet in level with the bladder, causing backflow of urine. (Photographic evidence). At 10:02 AM, Staff A, LPN lowered the drainage bag, opened the port, emptied the urine into a urinal, and closed the port without cleaning it.A review of Resident #7's demographic sheet revealed the resident was admitted on [DATE] and readmitted on [DATE] with diagnoses that included Hemiplegia and Hemiparesis following cerebral infarction affecting the left non-dominant side.A review of a Significant Change Minimum Data Set reference dated 9/13/25 indicated that Resident #7 had a Brief Interview for Mental Status score of 5 out of 10, suggesting severe cognitive impairment.A review of Resident #7's physician's order sheet revealed an order dated 10/28/25 to always keep the urine collection bag below the level of the bladder.On 11/5/25 at 12:33 PM Staff A, LPN stated: the urinary drainage collection bag should be placed in the dignity bag and hooked on the bed frame to help urine flow to prevent urine from going back into the bladder which can contribute to a Urinary Tract Infection (UTI).
During care it is okay to leave the drainage bag on the bed because I wanted to prevent any trauma .That positioning could cause reflux due to the kinking; I am supposed to clean the port with an alcohol pad before and after draining the urine to prevent infection.On 11/05/25 at 12:03 PM, the Infection Control Preventionist revealed staff must ensure the urinary drainage bag does not touch the floor and must hang by gravity to maintain a good flow and prevent stasis, which can contribute to UTI due to backflow of urine.
When emptying the urine bag, the exit port should be cleaned with soap and water before and after to prevent infection.
During an interview on 11/05/25 at 12:51 PM, the Director of Nursing (DON) stated that the bag should remain below the level of the bladder to prevent urine reflux, which can cause a UTI.
The staff left the urinary drainage collection bag on the bed during hygiene care to prevent any trauma.
The DON noted that there was no facility policy regarding the correct positioning of the indwelling urinary catheter drainage bag and that it is common knowledge.
