    Inspectors wroteBased on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to establish and maintain an infection prevention and control program designed to provide a safe, sanitary, and comfortable environment and to help prevent the development and transmission of communicable diseases and infections for 1 of 6 residents (Resident #13) reviewed for infection control. The facility failed to ensure RN A performed hand hygiene while preforming glucometer checks (a small, portable device that lets you check your blood sugars) and administering insulin for Resident #13. This deficient practice could place residents at risk for infection due to improper care practices.
