A resident with decision-making capacity decides not to get out of bed for an activity. The aide should:

  • A.Physically lift her out of bed to attend
  • B.Threaten to remove her television if she does not go
  • C.Chart that she attended when she did not
  • D.Respect the decision, offer the activity again later, and report as required
Correct answer

D. Respect the decision, offer the activity again later, and report as required

Why

Residents with capacity may choose their daily routine and refuse activities. Respecting the choice, re-offering later, and reporting honestly protects autonomy and record accuracy.
