Findings
Based on observation, record review, and interview, the residence failed to ensure the administrator complied with all applicable state regulations to help prevent the possible development and transmission of Norovirus/Gastroenteritis and Coronavirus (COVID-19). Additionally, the residence failed to follow recommended contingency staffing protocols for their local health department (LHD), affecting 108 current residents. (Cross-reference S1130)Specifically, the residence failed to follow the LHD guidelines for reporting norovirus/gastroenteritis and collect specimens from different ill individuals. Specifically, the residence did not implement its communicable disease and infection prevention policy. The residence organized a line list of 21 residents and 13 staff members who experienced symptoms of vomiting and diarrhea (gastroenteritis). This failure created an immediate jeopardy risk to all 108 current residents. On 12/20/24, the department directed the residence to provide written evidence that the risk had been removed. Specifically, the residence failed to ensure the administrator managed day-to-day operations or adequate supervision of personnel during an outbreak of COVID-19. Furthermore, the residence failed to follow the local health department (LHD) guidelines for contingency staffing. Staff #5 was required to return to work on 12/6/24 after testing positive for COVID-19 on 12/5/24. Staff #5 was not required to continue isolation upon returning to work and actively worked with residents in the secure environment. Additionally, Staff #3 tested positive for COVID-19 on 12/4/24 and worked without taking the required five day isolation period. Residence supervision were aware of the positive COVID-19 tests; however, they failed to enforce contingency staffing protocols and staff continued to work after testing positive for COVID-19. This failure created an immediate jeopardy risk to all 108 current residents. On 12/20/24, the department directed the residence to provide written evidence that the risk had been removed. Findings include: 1. GastroenteritisA . References and Residence PolicyChapter VII regulations governing assisted living residences, part 2.2, defines "Administrator" as a person who is responsible for the overall operation, daily administration, management, and maintenance of the assisted living residence. The term "administrator" is synonymous with "operator," as that term is used in Title 25, Article 27, Part 1. The department's undated Summary of Guidelines for Investigation and Management of Norovirus Outbreaks in Healthcare and Residential Facilities read in part that in the event of an outbreak, the following steps should be taken:Notify the department or the local public health agency within four hours. Collect three to five stool specimens from different ill individuals and submit them to a commercial laboratory or to the department for norovirus testing and bacterial culture (on a fee for service basis). Try to collect specimens during the first 48 hours of illness while stool is still liquid. Outbreak control measures should not be delayed while waiting for test results. The residence's infection control policy, dated 8/10/23, read in part: "The residence will provide a safe, sanitary, and comfortable environment. The residence .... will help prevent the development and transmission of communicable diseases and infections. The elements of the infection prevention program consist of reporting the information to appropriate public health authorities and preventing the spread to other residents."B. ObservationsOn 12/20/24 at 7:55 a.m., Resident #2 vomited on her bed and the floor. The vomit was dark red and brown with a lumpy texture. On 12/20/24 at approximately 5:30 p.m., Resident #14 was observed in the dining room, trembling, with a runny nose, and was actively vomiting. Staff #3 took his body temperature; it measured 100.8 degrees Fahrenheit. C. InterviewsOn 12/20/24 at approximately 7:20 a.m., Confidential Staff #10 stated that a vomiting and diarrhea outbreak started on 12/13/24. Staff and residents in the assisted living and the secure environment experienced vomiting and diarrhea. Confidential Staff #10 stated that Resident #1 and two other residents had vomiting and diarrhea in the week prior to the onsite investigation. The confidential staff stated that Resident #1 had a change in baseline: Resident #1 was usually talkative and active but had not been so since becoming sick. On 12/20/24 at approximately 7:55 a.m., Resident #2 stated that she was not feeling well. She stated that she vomited on herself and the bed, and she felt nauseated. On 12/20/24 at approximately 8:15 a.m., Staff #8 stated that Resident #2 vomited, had diarrhea, and was nauseated while toileting. Staff #8 stated that Resident #1 vomited "violently." Staff #5 stated that residents who contracted gastroenteritis had sudden diarrhea and vomited without warning in the common areas such as dining rooms and hallways. On 12/20/24 at approximately 9:30 a.m., Confidential Staff #10 stated that a staff member sent an electronic text message to a group of staff members that read that she was sick with gastroenteritis symptoms. The confidential staff stated to an unknown agency staff that the administrator nor the regional nurse (RN) gave directions to help prevent the development and transmission of gastroenteritis except to wash hands and watch out for signs amongst residents. On 12/20/24 at approximately 4:00 p.m., Confidential Staff #9 and and an unknown agency staff stated that the administrator nor the RN gave direction to help prevent the development and transmission of gastroenteritis except to wash hands and watch out for the signs amongst residents. On 12/20/24 at approximately 11:30 a.m., the LHD representative stated that the residence had not reported any gastroenteritis-related outbreaks to thier department. She added that she expected the residence to have reported immediately once they started investigating the vomiting and diarrhea symptoms. On 12/20/24, at approximately 12:00 p.m., the RN stated that the residence had created a line list on 12/15/24 due to an outbreak of vomiting and diarrhea amongst residents and staff. On 12/20/24, at approximately 12:00 p.m., the administrator confirmed the start date of the line list. She stated that both residents and staff had gastroenteritis symptoms. On 12/20/24 at approximately 12:30 p.m., the administrator and the RN stated that they were not aware that Resident #2 had vomited on her bed with dark red and brown in color with lumpy textures (approximately four hours from the time of Resident #2's emesis). On 12/2/24 at 12:40 p.m., The RN and the administrator acknowledged the residence had a gastroenteritis outbreak. They affirmed that they did not collect stool specimens from different ill individuals, and subsequently the residence did not notify the LHD. The RN stated that she did not collect stool specimens because only primary care providers were able to request stool specimens. D. Record ReviewOn 12/20/24 at approximately 9:30 a.m., Confidential Staff #10's electronic text message revealed a staff member had called off work due to symptoms of gastroenteritis. Additional messages read in part to be aware that six residents with whom she had worked had symptoms also. On 12/20/24, at approximately 1:00 p.m., the RN provided a line list, titled "Outbreak Surveillance Form for Residents and Staff Members," that revealed the residence had counted 21 total residents and 13 staff members with gastroenteritis who had onset dates ranging from 12/12/24 through 12/20/24. The data in the document included the names, ages and sex of residents and staff, onset dates, symptoms, room numbers and illness duration. The columns for stool collection were labeled "no" and test results were labeled "not applicable." The line list revealed residents had gastroenteritis onset dates as follows:Resident #13 had an onset date of 12/16/24. Resident #1 had an onset date of 12/19/24. Residents #3 and #4 had an onset date of 12/20/24.2. COVID-19A. Residence PolicyThe residence COVID-19 policy, dated 9/2/2020, read in part that staff who exhibited symptoms of COVID-19 would be tested and excluded from work following Center for Disease Control (CDC) guidelines and would report any positive viral tests for COVID-19 to residence supervision staff. B. Record ReviewThe Residence Staff COVID-19 Line List read that Staff #3 tested positive for COVID-19 on 12/4/24 and that Staff #5 tested positive for COVID-19 on 12/5/24. The residence December 2024 staff schedule read that Staff #3 worked on 12/4/24 and 12/5/24, and that Staff #5 worked on 12/6/24. C. InterviewsDuring the onsite investigation, Confidential Staff #10 stated that Staff #5 was required to return to work on 12/6/24. Confidential Staff #10 stated that the RCC told Staff #5 that the LHD regulations did not require isolation anymore. During the onsite investigation, Confidential Staff #9 stated that Staff #3 took a COVID-19 test at the residence on 12/4/24 and had a positive test result. Confidential Staff #9 stated that management did not require Staff #3 to go home after testing positive, and the staff worked throughout the week. On 12/20/24 at approximately 2:30 p.m., an LHD representative stated that the LHD guidance for contingency staffing was that for those who tested positive for COVID-19 they needed to isolate at home for at least five days from the onset of the illness or beginning from the date of the positive test result if asymptomatic. The representative stated that staff should be free of fever for at least 24 hours with symptom improvement before returning to work. 3. The investigation established that the findings above placed the 108 current residents at immediate jeopardy risk for exposure to gastroenteritis. The residence was directed to provide the department with written evidence that the risk had been removed. Part 3.13 of the Chapter VII regulations require residences to immediately correct the circumstances that gave rise to the immediate jeopardy situation. On 12/20/24 at 1:44 p.m., the RN submitted written evidence that read in pertinent part: The RN contacted the department on 12/20/24 for directives. The department's epidemiologist provided education to the administrator and the RN regarding COVID-19 and staffing protocols. The residence communicated with the department on 12/20/24 at 12:15 p.m. The administrator informed the department of the current residents who exhibited gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms and received direction for ongoing mitigation of the outbreak. The residence would follow the department guidelines for reportable outbreaks and would communicate any changes or challenges to the department. However, the written evidence did not indicate the risk had been removed because it did not address how the residence planned to ensure staff who tested positive for COVID-19 completed isolation during a COVID-19 outbreak. The RN was directed to submit additional written evidence. On 12/20/24 at 2:45 p.m., the RN submitted additional written evidence that read in pertinent part: Contingency staffing protocols will be determined by current regulations and recommendations. The residence will follow contingency staffing regulations. Staff will be excused from work after testing positive for COVID19. Non-positive staff and contracted staff will be asked to work additional shifts to fill positions of staff who tested positive. If staff shortages continued, residence changes from contingency staffing to crisis staffing would be considered. Staff who returned to work will be required to wear N-95 masks, social distance from other staff members and residents, and limit time spent with residents. This would be designated to residents as well ... Recommendations from the department are as follows; isolate ill individuals until 24 hours after resolution of symptoms, exclude sick staff from work, increased hand hygiene and environmental cleaning. The residence will follow these recommendations and any other department directions. However, the written evidence did not indicate that the risk had been removed because it did not include how the residence would monitor staff when ill and who would be responsible for monitoring and tracking those staff. The RN was directed to submit additional written evidence. On 12/20/24 at 4:37 p.m., the RN submitted additional written evidence that read in pertinent part: "This will be tracked on the outbreak line listing by the (administrator). Staff will be monitored by the director if ill and working and will track this on the outbreak line listing. This will include PPE (personal protective equipment) used while in (the residence), when they start symptoms, test positive, return to work and any changes of symptoms. During (an) outbreak of staff illness the (administrator)/designee will audit/observe proper PPE is used. Outbreak guidance will be reviewed by (the administrator) and regional team. Outbreak(s) will be reported within (four) hours to the appropriate agency."

On 12/23/24 at 11:34 a.m., a family member of Resident #14 stated that Resident #14 frequently smelled like urine. The family member stated that she believed the reason was due to inappropriate staffing levels to assist him with toileting as often as he needed. The family member also stated that she wanted to see more staff because she had see staff ask Resident #14 if he was hungry, and when he did not respond, staff moved on to a different task and then did not come back to follow up about eating, which resulted in and Resident #14 not eating. 3. ObservationDuring the onsite visit on 12/20/24 and 12/23/24 during breakfast in the secured environment, no staff were observed in the dining room between approximately 8:00 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. while residents were seated to eat breakfast.
