FF0883
Infection Control Deficiencies
Potential for More Than Minimal Harm

Based on record review and interview, the facility failed to offer vaccination to 3 out of 5 residents (R7, R86, R87) reviewed for vaccination related to infection prevention.

Findings include: R7's immunization history documents the last time resident received influenza vaccination was on 11/13/2022.

Pneumococcal vaccine was not administered, due to refusal, since 07/21/2023. No documentation was available for each vaccine that was offered for the current year 2025. R86's immunization record documents the last time resident received influenza vaccination was on 01/04/2025.

Pneumococcal vaccination (PCV13) received on 01/22/2020.

Clinical Management / Infection Prevention, dated 03/04/2025, reads: Adult 50 years and older recommends PCV15, PCV20 or PCV21 pneumococcal vaccination. R87's immunization record does not document the resident received pneumococcal vaccination. On 11/19/2025 at 10:34 AM, V6 (Infection Preventionist / Registered Nurse) stated she just started as an Infection Preventionist. V6 stated she still needs to address vaccination of some residents.

Currently, residents that do not have documentation as to their immunizations were not offered vaccination yet. V6 stated vaccination is a priority, the importance of vaccination is to protect them (residents) and protect people around residents from infection.
