41	KULA HOSPITAL	125003	100 KEOKEA PLACE	KULA	HI	96790	2018-06-22	880	D	0	1	GCA011	Based on observation and interview, the facility failed to ensure it maintained a safe and sanitary environment to help prevent the development and transmission of communicable diseases and infections for 2 of 24 residents (R56, R71) in the sample. Findings Include: On 06/19/18 at 11:18 AM, R56 was observed sitting at a table with oversized red Lego-type and wooden building blocks on it. The building blocks were being used by another resident, R71, who is blind. R56 had already grabbed one of the large red blocks and was trying to insert it into her mouth but it was too big. After licking it, she put it down on the table. She then grabbed a blue rectangular wooden block and tried to insert that large block into her mouth as well. S15 was in the hallway and was asked to observe R56. S15 intervened and said R56 was not supposed to be handling these building blocks. The blocks were pushed toward R71 without being sanitized and R71 resumed using them. On 06/21/18 at 09:38 AM, S5 said they have one person to monitor the three adjoining activity rooms. S5 was informed of the observation whereby the blocks were not sanitized before it was given to R71, but had no comment. S94 said a lot had been going on that day when R56 tried to insert the blocks into her mouth. S94 said they usually wiped each block with the purple top disinfecting wipes and dried them for a couple minutes before putting them away. However, on 06/19/18 the blocks were not sanitized before they were returned to R71.	2020-09-01
