Failure to substantiate the need for the indwelling urinary catheter has the potential to contribute to urinary tract and or other facility acquired infections. Findings include: On (MONTH) 20, 2013 the medical record for Resident #3 was reviewed with LN #5. She acknowledged both Minimum Data Sets for the resident dated (MONTH) 6 and (MONTH) 13, 2013 indicated the resident was admitted into the facility with a foley catheter. On further investigation she acknowledged there was no medical justification for the urinary catheter and there was no plan for bladder training or attempt to discontinue the foley. Later that same day LN#5 obtained physician's orders [REDACTED].	2018-07-01
