5. Establish ways to intervene when control limits are not met
6. Make sure the program is running as designed and is effective
7. Document and communicate all the activities

-Someone who understands accreditation standards and licensing requirements
-Someone with expertise in infection prevention
-A clinician with expertise in infectious diseases
-Risk and quality management staff
The CDC toolkit identifies locations in a buildings water system where Legionella can grow and spread to include but not limited to:
~Hot and cold-water storage tanks
~Water heaters
~Water Filters
~Electronic and manual faucets
~Aerators
~Shower heads and hoses

The CDC toolkit identifies factors internal to buildings that can lead to Legionella growth to include:
~Water temperature fluctuations: Provides conditions where Legionella grows best (77 -108 Fahrenheit (F))
~Water pressure changes
~PH (measurement of acidity or alkalinity of a solution on a scale 0 to 14)
~Inadequate disinfectant: Does not kill or inactivate Legionella
~Water stagnation: Encourages biofilm growth and reduces temperature and levels of disinfectant. Common issues that contribute to water stagnation include renovations that lead to 'dead legs' and reduced building occupancy.
The Wisconsin State Plumbing Code, Chapter SPS 382.50(3)(b)6, requires a nursing homes hot water system to be installed and maintained to provide bacterial control by one of the following methods:
~Water stored and circulation initiated at a minimum of 140 F and with a return of a minimum of 124 F. This standard is best practice even considering the facility was built prior to May 2003 and grandfathered to meet requirement.

a facility risk assessment to identify where Legionella and other opportunistic waterborne pathogens (e.g Pseudomonas, Acinetobacter, Burkholderia, Stenotrophomonas, nontuberculous mycobacteria and fungi) could grow and spread in the facility water system. 2. Implementing a water management program that considers the ASHRAE industry standard and the CDC toolkit and includes control measures such as physical controls temperature management disinfectant level control visual inspections and environmental testing for pathogens. 3. Specifying testing protocols and acceptable ranges for control measures and documenting the results of testing and corrective actions taken when control limits are not maintained.

Infection Surveillance
2.) The Facility does not have a policy for staff illness procedures.
The Facility's policy, titled: Surveillance for Infections documents in part, Policy Statement The Infection Preventionist will conduct ongoing surveillance for Healthcare-Associated Infections (HAIs) and other epidemiological significant infections that have substantial impact on potential resident outcome and that may require transmission based precautions and other preventative interventions. H. The charge nurse will notify the attending health care provider and the Infection Preventionist of suspected infections. 1. The infection preventionist will determine if the infection is reportable. Data Collecting and Recording A. For residents with infections that meet the criteria for definition of infection for surveillance, collect the following data as appropriate: 8. Treatment measures and precautions (interventions and steps taken that may reduce risk.) . D. For targeted surveillance using the community-created tools, follow these guidelines: 3. MONTHLY: Summarize monthly data for each nursing unit by site and by pathogen.
Surveyor reviewed the Facility's infection surveillance for 04/2024 through 06/2024 and noted no identified increase in infection rates or interventions implemented. Surveyor noted an increase in infection rates from 05/2024 to 06/2024.
