Provide appropriate care for residents who are continent or incontinent of bowel/bladder, appropriate catheter care, and appropriate care to prevent urinary tract infections. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on

record review, interview and facility policy review, the facility failed to implement physician orders to care for

an indwelling urinary catheter. This affected one resident, (Resident #72) of three residents reviewed for urinary catheters. The facility census was 111.Findings Include:Record review for Resident #72 revealed

this resident was admitted to the facility on [DATE REDACTED] with diagnoses including: chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder, tracheostomy, obstructive sleep apnea, muscle wasting and atrophy. Review of the comprehensive Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE REDACTED] revealed this resident had intact cognition evidenced by a Brief Interview for Mental Status (BIMS) score of 15. This resident was assessed to require assistance with self-care activities.Review of the care plan dated 12/09/26 revealed Resident# 72 was at risk for a urinary tract infection.Review of the physician's order for Resident #72 as of 12/29/25 revealed no catheter care, catheter cleansing or catheter flush orders.During an interview with Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #162 on 12/30/25 at 2:15 P.M. she stated catheter care is conducted per the physician orders appearing in

the system of record.During an interview with Director of Nursing, (DON) on 12/30/25 at 2:48 P.M. she confirmed Resident #72 did have an indwelling urinary catheter and no physician orders had been entered pertaining to catheter care for Resident #72. Later that afternoon she confirmed that she added the orders

in Resident #72's electronic medical record for his catheter care. Review of policy titled Urinary Catheter Care dated February 2024 revealed the purpose of this procedure is to prevent catheter-associated urinary tract infections. Routine hygiene (e.g. cleansing of the meatal surface during daily bathing or showering) is appropriate. Empty the drainage bag regularly, at least every shift and as needed. Changing indwelling catheters or drainage bags at routine, fixed intervals is not recommended. Rather, it is suggested to change catheters and drainage bags based on clinical indications such as infection, obstruction, or when the closed system is compromised. Catheter irrigation may be ordered to prevent obstruction in residents at risk for obstruction. Observe residents for complications associated with urinary catheters. This deficiency represented non-compliance investigated regarding complaint numbers 2676997.
