Connect HealthCare documentation further indicated that both caregivers and patient were educated and informed about catheter cleaning/care and demonstrated comprehension of the information provided during each visit.Records also revealed that R1 has a history of medical complications due to manipulating the catheter against medical advice.

At 10:00 AM on 10/17/2025, LPA conducted interviews with Residents 1- 7 (R1–R7). Of those interviewed, 1 out of 7 residents stated they receive assistance with catheter cleaning/care and understand the information provided by the nurse during visits. R2, R3, and R4 also stated that staff members assist them with their care. LPA attempted to interview R5, R6, and R7; however, they were unable to engage in a clear conversation.

Staff also reported understanding their responsibilities when providing catheter cleaning/care and confirmed they comprehend the information provided by the nurse during visits.
