BOX 1081	WRANGELL	AK	99929	2018-04-30	881	F	0	1	O8F911	Based on record review and interview the facility failed to implement a facility specific antibiotic stewardship program to monitor the use of antibiotics. Failure to monitor the appropriate use of antibiotics had the potential to increase antibiotic resistance among all residents (census of 10). Findings: Record review on 4/25/18 at 10:00 am, revealed a draft antibiotic stewardship policy that was not implemented at the time of review. During an interview on 4/27/18 at 12:18 pm, the Infection Control Preventionist stated the antibiotic stewardship policy was in draft and had not been implemented yet and she was not checking on Loeb (a standard used for initiation of antibiotics) criteria at this time.	2020-09-01
