- No harm, potential for more than minimal, patternF880Oct 13, 2021
The facility identified a census of 59 residents. Based on observations, record reviews, and interviews, the facility failed to ensure proper hand hygiene was performed during meal serving and failed to prevent cross-contamination during peri-care (involves washing the genital and rectal areas of the body or peri-area) and foley catheter (tube inserted into the bladder to drain urine into a collection bag) care for Resident (R) 206. This deficient practice increased the risk of illness and infection for all residents on the affected unit. Findings included: - On 10/11/21 at 12:06 PM, Licensed Nurse (LN) H wore gloves and pushed dining cart into the dining room. She scratched her arm then rolled silverware and wrapped food bowls and cups. […]

Findings included:- Review of the Electronic Medical Record (EMR) revealed the following: 1. The EMR for R49 documented diagnoses of Alzheimer's disease (progressive mental deterioration characterized by confusion and memory failure) and polyosteoarthritis (a degenerative joint disease characterized by the breakdown of cartilage and bone in five or more joints simultaneously).
