8121	SEMINOLE MANOR NURSING HOME	115712	100 FLORENCE STREET	DONALSONVILLE	GA	39845	2012-10-04	441	F	0	1	JB8C11	Based on record review and staff interview, it was determined that the facility failed to ensure that the infection control program contained effective surveillance. Findings include: Review of the facility's infection control log from June 2012 to August 2012 revealed that there was not any evidence that the facility had identified the causative organism and implemented strategies to prevent the spread of infection. The facility documented that eight residents had urinary tract infections in 6/12 and four residents had urinary tract infections in 7/12. There was not any evidence that staff did an infection summary for 8/12. Although the facility documented if cultures had been done, there was no documentation if the culture was positive for organisms. There was no documentation to indicate if the infections were nosocomial or community acquired. During an interview on 10/3/12 at 3:00 p.m., the infection control nurse confirmed that the facility's infection control surveillance documentation was incomplete.	2016-07-01
