1 HILO MEDICAL CENTER 125002 1190 WAIANUENUE AVENUE HILO HI 96720 2017-10-20 280 D 0 1 5D9Q11 Based on observations, staff interviews and electronic medical record (EMR) reviews, the facility failed to ensure that 1 of 16 residents (R #10) was consulted on personal preferences. Findings include: On 10/18/2017 at 2:19 PM R#10 was observed sleeping in bed. Staff #2 explained that staff were alert to resident's coughing as signal that assistance is needed and R#10 didn't want to use the soft call-light because often inadvertently triggered the call light by his/her head movements. Reviewed the resident's Care Plan (CP) which states Potential for Decrease in ADL, that interventions dated 8/24/15 included: I am to use a soft touch call light to call for assistance which is to be placed by my pillow near to my face. I will turn my head/face to touch the call bell. Discussed with Staff #2, that intervention of soft call-light still on ADL CP and there was no intervention that staff should listen for the resident's coughing as signal for assistance. Staff #2 went to ask R#10 if he/she wanted a soft call-light and R#10 responded, yes by nodding his/her head. The resident's sister came to visit at that time and Staff #2 explained to her that R#10 now wanted to use the soft call-light. Staff #2 called for the soft call-light to be re-installed. The facility did not explore care alternatives through a thorough care planning process in which the resident could participate. 2020-09-01
