- Failure to Provide Safe and Appropriate Respiratory Care for a Resident When Needed – citation #F695 date February 6, 2018
- Failure to Provide and Implement an Infection Protection and Control Program – citation #F880 date February 6, 2018
The state investigators determined that the nursing home “failed to ensure staff provided care [following] professional standards by failing to properly store nebulizer equipment.” For one resident, “the facility failed to ensure that the nebulizer mask was properly stored when not used to minimize the risk of infection.”
The survey team observed the resident’s nebulizer mask lying on the bedside table uncovered on February 1, 2018, 11:35 AM. The date on the mask was January 29, 2018.” The following day, the surveyors again observed the resident’s nebulizer mask lying “on the bedside table uncovered, dated January 29, 2018.”
Later in the afternoon, the surveyors observed the resident “with the nebulizer mask on, and the tape on the nebulizer was dated January 29, 2018.” The Unit Manager “entered the room and took the nebulizer mask from the resident and placed on top of the machine uncovered. She exited the room and returned with a plastic bag and placed the dirty nebulizer mask in the plastic bag.”
The Unit Manager said that “the nebulizer mask should be stored in the bag when not used. She said that there was no bag available in the resident’s room, and she was not aware that the mask had been stored improperly. She said she would replace the mask.”
The nursing home “failed to ensure proper infection control practices were present in the care and treatment of [a resident’s medical condition] and during medication administration and environmental cleaning of one of four resident care units.”
For one resident, “the facility failed to ensure the prevention and spread of infection during a PICC line dressing change for [the resident].”
On January 29, 2018, the resident stated that they had an infection of the left lateral foot that was excised and cultured. The resident stated just before noon that they would be getting a PICC (peripherally inserted central catheter) inserted.
The surveyors observed the initial sterile dressing change performed by a medication nurse and the second-floor nurse manager. The team used a sterile dressing kit that contained two masks. The nurse donned the first mask, and the nurse manager donned the second mass during the procedure. However, the resident “did not wear mask and did not turn his/her head during the dressing change.” The nurse confirmed that “the resident should have been given the second mask.”
