Residents Affected - Few
On 10/02/25 at 3:35PM, an interview was conducted with Staff H CNA. Staff H was asked if she was working with someone on EBP and got feces on her gown would she get a new one? Staff H stated she would call for help to have someone bring a new gown for her. When asked what would she do if no one was available. Staff H stated she would make sure the resident was safe and then walk down the hall to get
a new gown. When asked if having the caddies on the door or between two rooms would be easier for her and her co-workers, she admitted that it would be easier to get a new gown if that were the case.
