6:30AM - Maureen is awake and lying quietly in bed.
6:40AM - Maya checked the diaper. It is dry.
Maureen began her day @ 8:05AM. She is in good spirits—alter and engaged for the most part. Maya began by applying Tolcylen to both big toes. She waited 10 minutes before putting on Maureen's socks. Diaper is dry. No clean and change was necessary. Colleen and Maya washed all of the areas of focus on Maureen's upper body using Aloe Vesta Cleansing Foam. After assessing all areas, they decided the application of Nystatin Ointment was not necessary.
Breakfast service began @ 8:38AM. Maureen's posture in the geri chair is good. She is tilting a few degrees to the left. This is become more and more common when the geri chair is in the upright position. Maya started out by giving Maureen a tea spoon of Manuka honey. She then administered the thyroid medication prior to actually starting breakfast. Maureen handled breakfast pretty well. She only coughed 2-3 times.
Maureen will consume 4 ounces of prune juice today.
Daily MiraLAX dosage: None.
9:09AM - Maya administered the blood pressure medication

10:55AM - Colleen and Maya transported Maureen to the bedroom to prepare for Rest Break #1. The diaper was medium wet. While perfuming the clean and change, Maureen urinated on the pad.
