The infection preventionist replied I don't want to see a catheter bag on the floor or a catheter above the bladder because that can lead to infection, those two things are very important. When the infection preventionist was shown a picture of Resident #1's catheter bag resting on the floor, she stated she would have to check the policy to see if that was acceptable as it was in a dignity bag. No policy was provided to the surveyor justifying the infection preventionist's comment. During an interview on 04/23/25 at 1:31 PM with the ADON, when made aware of the concerns regarding Resident #1's catheter, the ADON stated it was hard to keep it off the ground due to the bed being in the lowest position. The ADON was made aware two other catheter bags were also observed with the bed in the lowest position and they were not observed resting on the ground. The ADON agreed how it was still an infection control concern due to the recent infection to the same site.

I will have to go to the DON to find out how to fix this.

I asked the nurse (Staff D) for clarity as to if it was correct. He said it was and he knowns what he's doing. I then said it doesn't look the same and asked him to check. He then yelled at me if I take it or not, he doesn't care, he said I am not an addict like you, you just lay in bed and beg for pain pills all day. The only thing I said after that to Staff D was I am not taking it, you can come and take it back please. He came in a short time later and shoved the card with the pills on it in my face and said to me you read English. I did look at the card and took the pill after I identified it. Staff D, the nurse never said that it was different because it was from a new supplier or another supplier.
