3522	ARTHUR B HODGES CENTER, THE	515193	300 BAKER LANE	CHARLESTON	WV	25302	2018-06-21	880	D	0	1	TL6L11	Based on observation and staff interview, the facility failed to maintain an effective infection control program to provide a safe and sanitary environment to help prevent the development and transmission communicable diseases and infections. A random observation discovered an improperly stored bedpan in a resident bathroom. This practice had the potential to affect a limited number of residents. Resident identifiers: #15. Facility census: 20. Findings included: a) Resident #15 A random observation on 06/19/18 at 10:05 AM, revealed a bedpan in Resident#15's bathroom was not properly stored in a plastic bag. The bedpan was lying upside down on top of and against the commode lid of a bed side commode stored in the resident's bathroom. Registered Nurse (RN#50) was asked to look in to the resident's bathroom and see if there were any issues. RN #50 immediately identified the unbagged bed pan as an issue. RN#50 said the bed pan should be bagged and agreed it was an infection control issue. On 06/19/18 at 02:50 PM, an interview with the Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON), revealed the ADON is responsible for infection control program. The ADON agreed the bed pan found in Resident#15's bathroom breeched infection control principals by not being stored properly in a plastic bag.	2020-09-01
