Failure to Follow Enhanced Barrier Precautions During IV Care
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to adhere to Enhanced Barrier Precautions (EBP) during the care of a resident with an intravenous (IV) catheter. The resident, who had a history of kidney abscess, diabetes mellitus, cerebral palsy, hemiplegia, and neurogenic bladder, was on isolation precautions due to the presence of an indwelling medical device. During an observation, a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) was seen accessing the resident's IV catheter without donning a gown and failed to perform hand hygiene between glove changes, despite the resident being on EBP. The LPN acknowledged the oversight during an interview, stating that hand hygiene and wearing a gown were necessary to prevent infection. The facility's policies on hand hygiene and the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) for residents on EBP were reviewed, indicating that gloves and gowns should be used during high-contact care activities. The Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON) confirmed that staff were expected to follow these precautions during IV access and antibiotic administration.
