F 0880 Provide and implement an infection prevention and control program.

Level of Harm - Minimal harm or 18229 potential for actual harm Based on a review of select facility policies and procedures, observation, and staff interview, it was Residents Affected - Few determined that the facility failed to ensure an environment free from the potential spread of infection on one of six residents reviewed for infection control (Resident 83).

Findings include:

The policy entitled Standard Precautions and Transmission-Based Precautions, last reviewed without changes March 18, 2025, revealed the CDC recommends two tiers of precautions. In the first tier are those precautions designed for the care of all residents, regardless of their diagnosis or presumed infection status. Implementation of these standard precautions is the primary strategy for successful infection prevention and control. The second tier of precautions are designed only for the care of specified residents on a case-by-case basis. Airborne, Contact, and Droplet precautions are used for persons known or suspected to be infected or colonized with highly transmissible pathogens. These precautions will be instituted for any resident who has an active infection and/or requires more extensive infection control measures. These precautions are to be used in addition to standard precautions. Contact precautions are used for residents known or suspected to be infected or colonized with microorganisms transmitted by direct contact with a resident or by indirect contact such as touching environmental surfaces. Examples of such illnesses include Vancomycin Resistant Enterococcus (VRE).

Clinical record review revealed the facility admitted Resident 83 on February 21, 2025. A urine culture collected on April 23, 2025, noted with 10,000-50,000 cfu (colony forming unit)/mL (milliliter) of enterococcus faecium VRE.

A physician's progress note dated April 25, 2025, at 10:35 AM indicated Resident 83's urine was positive for enterococcus faecalis and enterococcus faecium VRE. The physician noted they would start Macrobid 100 milligrams (mg) twice a day for five days but may need to change depending on pending sensitivities.

Further review of Resident 83's clinical record revealed an order for contact precautions for VRE in her urine

on April 27, 2025.

Interview with Employee 1 (infection preventionist) on May 23, 2025, at 9:40 AM confirmed there was a delay

in starting Resident 83's transmission-based precautions. Employee 1 stated the nurse supervisor did not implement contact precautions over the weekend.

The surveyor reviewed the concerns related to transmission-based precautions during an interview with the Director of Nursing on May 23, 2025, at 10:31 AM.
