Based on observation, interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure nursing
staff washed their hands and changed soiled gloves after each direct resident contact and
when indicated by professional practices during personal care for one resident (Resident
#39) in a review of 18 sampled residents and for two additional residents (Resident #72
and Resident
#200). The facility census was 77.
1. Review of the Nurse Assistant in a Long-term Care Facility, 2001 Revision edition,
regarding hand washing and use of gloves, showed the following:
-Wash hands before and after glove use and after contact with any waste or contaminated
material;
-Gloves should be worn when contact is likely with the following: anybody opening, blood,
all moist body fluids, mucous membranes (nose, mouth, etc.), non-intact skin (pressure
ulcers, skin tears), dressings, used tissues or wipes, surfaces or items contaminated with
blood or body fluids, specimen containers being transported;
-Use gloves when doing mouth care, perineal care, skin care, and other procedures
involving body fluids;
-Gloves do not eliminate the need to wash your hands; they just provide a barrier between
you and potentially infectious microorganisms;
-Never touch unnecessary articles in the room or one’s face, hair, contact lens, or
glasses when wearing gloves.
2. Review of the facility’s undated Handwashing policy showed the following:
-The purpose is to decrease the risk of transmission of infection by appropriate
handwashing;
-Handwashing is generally considered the most important single procedure for preventing
nosocomial infections;
-Antiseptics control or kill microorganisms contaminating skin and other superficial
tissues and are sometimes composed of the same chemicals that are used for disinfection of
inanimate objects;
-Although antiseptics and other handwashing agents do not sterilize the skin, they can
reduce microbial contamination depending on the type and the amount of contamination, the
agent used, the presence of residual activity and the handwashing technique followed.
3. Review of the facility’s undated Infection Control policy, showed the following:
-Wear gloves when it is likely that hands will be in contact with mucous membranes,
non-intact skin, any moist body substances (blood, urine, feces, wound drainage, oral
secretions, sputum, vomitus,or items/surfaces soiled with these substances);
-Gloves should be changed and hands washed between residents;
-Remember: Gloves are not a cure-all. They reduce the likelihood of contaminating the
