9360 | JOE-ANNE BURGIN NURSING HOME | 115272 | 321 RANDOLPH STREET | CUTHBERT | GA | 39840 | 2012-03-29 | 315 | D | 1 | 0 | ZZLX11 | **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observation, review of the facility's policy for indwelling urinary catheter care, and staff interview, the facility failed to provide the appropriate urinary catheter care for two (2) residents (#2 and #3), from four (4) residents with indwelling urinary catheters, on a total survey sample of eight (8) residents. Findings include: 1. During observation of Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs) "AA" and "BB" performing Foley catheter care for Resident #2 on March 28, 2012 at 3:15 p.m., these CNAs utilized wipes to wipe downward on either side of the Foley catheter tubing during pericare, and used [MEDICATION NAME] swabs to wipe the peri area on either side of the catheter tubing as well. However, the CNAs failed to clean the Foley catheter tubing at the insertion site at all. 2. During observation of CNAs "CC" and "DD" performing Foley catheter care for Resident #3 on March 28, 2012 at 3:35 p.m., these CNAs used wipes to wipe downward on either side of the Foley catheter during peri care, and used [MEDICATION NAME] swabs to wipe downward on either side of the peri area, but they failed to clean the Foley catheter tubing from the proximal to the distal end. Rather, the CNAs used a [MEDICATION NAME] swab to wipe one time on the top of the catheter tubing. Also, during the observation referenced above, the resident's Foley catheter tubing was not secured to the leg either prior to or after the completion of catheter care. The facility's policy for the care of indwelling Foley catheters was reviewed, and it was determined that the policy did not include cleansing of the Foley catheter tubing. This was acknowledged by the Director of Nursing during interview on 03/29/2012 at 12:15 p.m.. | 2015-07-01 |
