13 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Tuesday Cabiness met with Administrator Stephanie Oden to investigate the allegation mentioned above. The following information was obtained during the visit:
It was alleged that facility staff confined residents to their bedrooms. To investigate the complaint, between 9:30 a.m. and 1:00 p.m., LPA conducted a physical plant inspection, obtained and reviewed resident and facility records, including the facility’s infection control plan and policy, and interviewed four staff members, including the Administrator.
According to the information obtained, resident #1 (R1) had a skin infection that could potentially be contagious. R1 was assessed by home health and a nurse practicioner (NP), and prescribed treatment. It was confirmed R1 had a contagious skin infection. (R1) shared a room with resident #2 (R2). During R1’s isolation period, R2 was also placed on precautionary quarantine measures due to potential exposure. (Cont'd LIC9099C) |
