Summary
The facility failed to provide and implement an infection prevention and control program. This deficiency was identified during the survey process, as the facility did not have an established or operational program to prevent and control infections among residents and staff. The absence of such a program was observed and documented by surveyors, indicating a lack of systematic measures to address infection risks within the facility. No specific residents, staff members, or incidents were detailed in the report, and there were no direct observations of infection events or outcomes related to this deficiency. The deficiency is based solely on the facility's failure to have the required infection prevention and control program in place.
