Citation history
Health deficiencies cited at Mountain Vista Health Park during CMS and state inspections, most recent first.
Staff failed to follow droplet precaution requirements for hand hygiene and mask use when two NAs entered a shared room with droplet precautions posted to deliver meal trays to two residents. Despite signage instructing everyone to clean hands before entering and leaving and to wear a surgical mask upon entry, each NA entered without performing hand hygiene or donning a mask and exited without hand hygiene, even though an alcohol-based handrub dispenser was available at the doorway. Both NAs reported seeing the droplet precaution sign but believed mask use and hand hygiene were not necessary for tray delivery, while the IP and physician confirmed that droplet precautions, including mask use and hand hygiene, remained in effect for both residents due to one resident’s respiratory symptoms.
Failure to Follow Droplet Precautions for Hand Hygiene and Mask Use
Penalty
Summary
The deficiency involves the facility’s failure to implement its infection prevention and control program for transmission-based droplet precautions, specifically related to hand hygiene and use of face masks. The facility’s droplet precaution signage, revised 1/20/22, directed that everyone must clean hands before entering and leaving the room and wear a surgical/procedure mask when entering, removing it after exiting. The facility’s policy on Isolation: Categories of Transmission-based Precautions, revised 9/2022, specified that droplet precautions are used for individuals with suspected or documented infections transmitted by respiratory droplets, and that staff must wear masks when entering such rooms, with additional PPE as indicated by risk of exposure to respiratory secretions. On the survey date, a room housing two residents had a droplet precautions sign posted on the door frame with instructions to perform hand hygiene and apply a face mask prior to entry. One resident in the room had signs and symptoms of respiratory infection and had been placed on droplet precautions; the Infection Preventionist stated that because one resident in the shared room was on droplet precautions, the roommate was considered exposed and also on droplet precautions. Despite this, NA #1 entered the room to deliver a lunch tray to the roommate, whose bed was closest to the door, without performing hand hygiene or donning a face mask, even though an alcohol-based handrub dispenser was mounted beside the door. NA #1 moved the over-bed tray closer to the resident and removed the lid from the plate, then exited the room without performing hand hygiene. NA #2 was observed entering the same room to deliver a lunch tray to the resident on droplet precautions, again without performing hand hygiene or applying a face mask before entry, and without performing hand hygiene upon exit, despite the handrub dispenser at the doorway. Both NAs acknowledged seeing the droplet precautions sign. NA #1 stated she did not think she had to perform hand hygiene or wear a mask to deliver a tray to the roommate, who she believed was not on droplet precautions. NA #2 stated she knew the resident was on droplet precautions and had worn a mask earlier in the shift for grooming and dressing, but did not think she needed to perform hand hygiene or wear a mask for tray delivery. The Infection Preventionist confirmed that staff were expected to wear a surgical mask and perform hand hygiene before and after care, including meal tray delivery, for both the resident on droplet precautions and the exposed roommate, and the physician expressed concern about potential infectious disease spread when informed of the NAs’ failure to follow the posted droplet precaution instructions.
