4:00 pm: Maureen was relaxing in the recliner and watching her favorite show.

Carolyn visited Maureen. Together we decided to use chamomile tea as a poultice for a swollen and red eye.

The easiest way to prepare:

- boil the water

- pour a small amount of water into a small glass bowl (1/4 bowl)

- after 30 seconds, insert one tea bag

- cover using the second the same bowl

- wait about 10 minutes

- check the temperature of the water to keep it slightly warm

- lightly squeeze the bag and put it on the eye

- every 2 minutes, soak in tea and put on the eye again

- apply for about 15 minutes.


6:15 pm: We headed Maureen to the bedroom. The diaper was very wet. We cleaned and changed her and applied Cavilon Lotion.

6:30 pm: dinner: taco with rice and beens. Maureen enjoyed very much.

Maureen coughed six times during the dinner.

7:15 pm: 7.5 ml VIMPAT and 5 mg OLANZAPINE with applesouce.

7:25 Oral care

Cleaned Maureen with Aloe Vesta and applied Cetaphil Lotion and Vick’s.

7:45 pm: We transferred Maureen to the bedroom. The diaper was medium wet. We changed her and applied Cavilon Lotion.
