Staff failed to maintain aseptic technique during a pressure ulcer wound dressing change, utilized improper hand washing technique, failed to maintain aseptic technique with medication storage, failed to store residents' personal hygiene supplies properly, failed to utilize standard precautions with garbage disposal, and failed to ensure the floor tile in the common shower room could be effectively cleaned. These practices had the potential to affect more than a limited number of residents. Resident identifier: #5. Facility census: 38. Findings include: a) Resident #5 1) On 02/26/2015 at 11:09 a.m., Employee #28, a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) , assisted by Employee #42 (NA) completed a dressing change of Resident #5 ' s sacral pressure ulcer. Resident #5 was lying on his back with two (2) large cloth incontinence pads beneath him. Nurse Aide (NA) #42 assisted the nurse to position Resident #5 on his right side. The LPN removed a dressing from Resident #5's right buttock and a dressing from the left buttock while wearing the same gloves. Neither dressing covered a visible wound. While wearing the same gloves used to remove the two (2) dressings from the resident's buttocks, which rendered the gloves contaminated, the nurse cleaned around the top and outer aspects of an open wound on the resident's coccyx/sacral area. She then wiped through the wound bed, from the coccyx toward the anus, with the same gauze used to clean around the top and outer wound bed. This created a potential for spreading microorganisms from the dressings on the buttocks as well as the periphery of the open wound. Upon completion of the wound treatment, the nurse placed a small coccyx/sacral dressing, which did not completely cover the bottom of the wound bed. 2) During a second obser… 2018-09-01

The QAA committee failed to identify and act upon quality deficiencies in the daily operation of the facility in which it did have, or should have had, knowledge. During the survey process, deficits in infection control practices and surety bond coverage were identified. Each had the potential to affect more than an isolated number of residents. There was no evidence these observable quality deficits were identified by the QAA Committee. Facility census: 38. Findings include: a) Surety Bond On 03/03/15 at 10:15 a.m., review of the current surety bond, which protects the monies held in the resident trust fund account, revealed the bond was for $10,000.00. The bank statements for the trust fund account for the most recent completed quarter ending in (MONTH) 2014 revealed the highest daily amount contained in the account was $18,505.67. The surety bond was not of a sufficient amount to cover the highest balance held in the account. During an interview on 03/04/15 at 1:30 p.m., the director of nursing and the administrator verified the amount of the surety bond had not been reviewed during the quality assurance committee meeting which was held in (MONTH) 2014. The bank statements reviewed were for October, November, and (MONTH) 2014. The timeframe in which these daily averages were higher than the bond amount should have been addressed by the QA committee. The QA committee should have addressed the need to increase the amount of coverage and implemented an action plan. b) Infection control 1) On 02/26/2015 at 11:09 a.m., Employee #28, a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN), assisted by Employee #42 (NA) completed a dressing change of Resident #5's sacral pressure ulcer.

Simultaneous activation of the resident call system revealed the bedside call light (nurse call) canceled the resident bathroom call light (emergency/urgent call) when a resident needed assistance in the bathroom. This had the potential to affect all residents residing in semi-private rooms on East Wing #1 and East Wing #2. Room identifiers: #119, #120, #122, #123, #128, #130, #220, #221, #222, #224, #228, #229, #230, #232, and #233. Facility Census: 85. Findings include: a) On 06/03/15 at 9:09 a.m., activation of the call light in Room #220, revealed when the bathroom call light (emergency/urgent) was activated, and then the bedside call light (nurse call) was activated, the bathroom call light was inactivated. The only staff notification of the need for assistance was at the bedside and not the bathroom. Activation of the call light in Room #222, at 9:11 a.m. on 06/03/15, revealed the same issue with both the bedside call light and the bathroom call light in this room. b) An interview with the Maintenance Director, on 06/03/15 at 12:15 a.m., revealed he had worked at the facility for [AGE] years and to his knowledge, the call light system was wired according to the manufacturer's specifications. He stated he would check all call light systems. On 06/04/15 at 11:47 a.m., the maintenance director reported all semi-private rooms on East Wing #1 and East Wing #2 were affected.

This had the potential to affect all residents. Facility census: 99. Findings include: a) During an observation of the kitchen at 7:45 a.m. on 07/22/15, accompanied by Dietary Managers #116 and #149, the ceiling vent in the dish-room was noticed to exhibit surface rust, which was advanced to the degree it could fall onto the surfaces below where clean dishes and utensils were stored. Dietary Manager #149 stated he would contact maintenance immediately to have it refinished. The metal sink used for handwashing was in disrepair. The faucet leaked continually and, due to the extremely small size of the sink, resulted in the floor beneath and around the sink being wet. In addition, the caulking around the metal sink was missing in places causing gaps that could harbor debris, microorganisms, and moisture. Dietary Manager #149 stated he would contact maintenance to have it repaired. 2018-09-01

Multi-dose vials of insulin were dated when opened on one (1) of four (4) halls where medication carts were observed. This practice had the potential to affect two (2) residents who received insulin from the 300-hall medication cart. Resident identifiers: #132 and #62. Facility census: 99. Findings include: a) Resident #132 Inspection of the 330-medication cart on 07/22/15 at 1:15 p.m., revealed an opened, partially full bottle of Novolog for Resident #132 with the date 05/28/15 written on one side of the box. On a different side of the box, the date 05/29/15 was written. Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #164, who was present for the inspection, said the facility practice was to discard opened insulin vials within a month after opening. Although it was unclear on which date the vial was opened because of the two (2) different dates on the box, LPN #164 agreed that over a month had passed since the open date and the vial should be discarded. b) Resident #62 The inspection of the 330-medication cart on 07/22/15 at 1:15 p.m. also revealed an opened vial of Lantus insulin for Resident #62. Neither the vial or the box it was packaged in had a date to indicate when staff had opened it. LPN #164 who was present during the inspection agreed there was no way of knowing when the vial was opened and stated it should be discarded and replaced. c) During an interview with the Director of Nursing (DON) on 07/22/15 at 2:30 p.m., he said the policy was for the nurse to check the throw away date prior to administering insulin, discard it after 28 days, and then order a new vial. He provided a policy used by the facility on Injectable Medications, last revised 03/31/15. On the subject of Insulin Vials, it stated, All vials should… 2018-09-01
