**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observations and interview, the facility failed to maintain an Infection Control Program designed to prevent the development and transmission of disease and infection related to hand hygiene during 1 of 4 medication administration observations. Finding: On 12/17/19 at 8:05 a.m., a surveyor observed the Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) wash her hands prior to preparing medications for Resident #20. The LPN then moved the cart to the room door, open the Medication Administration Record [REDACTED]. After touching the above items, she then popped out a [MEDICATION NAME] 100 mg (milligrams) Extended Release capsule into her bare hand and put it in the medicine cup. At this time the surveyor intervened, the LPN confirmed she should not have touched the medication with her hands. On 12/17/19 at 8:20 a.m., a surveyor discussed and confirmed the above finding with the Director of Nursing. |
