Maureen began her day @ 8:10AM. Before getting started, we used the adjustable bed to prop Maureen up to 90 degrees in order to give her some sips of water. She truly enjoys it. Diaper was medium wet. We did a clean and change. Maya then cleaned all the areas of focus on Maureen's upper body with Aloe Vesta Cleansing Foam and warm wipes from the purple packet. All areas of focus on the upper body look very good. The area under the right breast was a bit red. Maya applied a thin layer of Nystatin Ointment to this area.
