SUMMARY STATEMENT OF DEFICIENCIES

Observation on 09/26/25 at 12:19 P.M. of Resident #16's wound care revealed the Director of Nursing (DON) and Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #200 completed scrotal wound care wearing only protective gloves.

Additional observations revealed LPN #200 assisted the DON with wound care and touched the tray tables, the resident's sheets, and bed then reached with the same gloved fingers into the bottle of Iodoform and pulled out the dressing. LPN #200 then handed the packing to the DON who placed the Iodoform in Resident #16's wound and packed it with a large cotton swab.Interview with the DON and LPN #200 on 09/26/25 at 12:33 P.M. verified they failed to wear gowns during Resident #16's wound care and confirmed proper infection control measures were not maintained when the same gloves used to touch contaminated surfaces were used to directly touch and handle clean wound dressing without cleansing hands and changing gloves.

Review of the facility policy titled, Isolation Precautions Process, revised 08/01/22, revealed enhanced barrier precautions will be utilized for residents with wounds.

Elements of enhanced barrier precautions included hand washing and gloves and gowns should be worn during high-contact resident care which included wound care (skin opening requiring a dressing).

Signage will be posted at the entry to the resident's room to alert them of the need to consult the nurse prior to entering with the nurse providing appropriate personal protective equipment instruction.This deficiency represents non-compliance investigated under Master Complaint Number 2611062.
