Resident #133, who had an intestinal infection, reported she did not receive bi-weekly showers as requested, due to facility's infection control policy regarding [MEDICAL CONDITIONS] infection. Resident identifier: #133. Facility census: 102. Findings: a) Resident #133 Resident #133, when interviewed on 06/30/09 at 10:00 a.m., reported she has not been able to take a shower and get her hair washed for the past two (2) weeks. The resident stated she has an intestinal infection, and staff told her she could not take a shower due to the infection. Resident #133 stated, "This makes me feel dirty and my hair looks terrible." The director of nurses (DON - Employee #20) provided a copy of the facility's policy titled "[MEDICAL CONDITION] Protocol" on 07/01/09. Review of this, at 1:45 p.m. on 07/01/09, found no limitations on a resident's shower schedule during active infection. On 06/30/09 at 11:00 a.m., a licensed practical nurse (LPN - Employee #127), when interviewed, stated, "Residents with [MEDICAL CONDITION] do not get showers due to loose stools." On 07/01/09 at 2:45 p.m., the DON stated residents with [MEDICAL CONDITION] infection can have showers, and it is not the facility's policy to hold showers for residents with [MEDICAL CONDITION] infection. The DON further stated she needed to educate her staff regarding the current policy. Resident #133's medical record, when reviewed on 07/01/09 at 3:00 p.m., revealed a care plan for diarrhea dated 06/09/09. The interventions listed did not include withholding showers until the intestinal infection resolved. . | 2014-04-01 |
