Contact Precautions

On 07/15/2024 at 1:12 PM, room [ROOM NUMBER] had a CDC sign on the door indicating contact precautions were in place.

The sign stated everyone must perform hand hygiene before entering and when leaving the room, providers/staff must put on gloves and a gown before entering the room. A Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) cart was located outside the door, in the hallway.

The placard on the wall outside the room indicated the room belonged to Resident #40 and Resident #26.

Resident #40

Resident #40 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], with diagnoses including Parkinson's disease without dyskinesia, without mention of fluctuations, and pressure ulcer of right buttock, unstageable.

Resident #26

Resident #26 was admitted to the facility on [DATE], and readmitted on [DATE], with diagnoses including chronic kidney disease, stage five and type two diabetes mellitus with diabetic chronic kidney disease.

On 07/16/2024 at 8:31 AM, Resident #26 explained the contact precaution sign on the resident's door was intended for Resident #40 due to wounds on Resident #40's legs. Resident #26 denied staff regularly wore a gown or gloves while providing care to Resident #26.

On 07/16/2024 at 3:15 PM, the IP/ADON explained the IP/ADON and/or the physician were able to make decisions on when to place residents on TBP or EBP.

The IP used resident symptoms to guide the decision on which precautions were appropriate and if a resident had a wound the facility was culturing it would be more of a contact thing.

The IP/ADON verbalized the facility used and followed CDC signage when placing a resident on TBP.

The IP/ADON explained if a resident was on contact precautions due to a wound, and the wound was covered with a dressing, staff were not required to wear PPE if the care being provided did not include contact with the resident.

The IP/ADON verbalized contact precautions and EBP were similar and it depended on if the infected area was covered or not.

On 07/16/2024 at 3:21 PM, the IP/ADON retrieved a copy of the CDC signage the facility used for EBP and contact precautions and placed them side by side.

The IP/ADON confirmed the sign for EBP instructed staff to don a gown and gloves prior to high-contact care activities.

The IP/ADON confirmed the contact precautions sign instructed staff to don a gown and gloves prior to room entering the room and sign did not specify PPE was only required for direct contact with the resident.
