  • 8:00am Maureen is awake. She is chatty this morning.

  • 8:08am Our morning begins with a complete bed bath. We applied Nystatin under Maureen’s waist due to redness. Diaper is heavy - we cleaned, applied no sting barrier film followed by the Cavilon barrier cream, and put on a new diaper. We finished dressing for the day.

  • 9:17am Breakfast - banana, oatmeal, 4 oz prune juice and a cup of water.

  • Maureen had a coughing fit this morning. She coughed up a significant amount of phlegm. We promptly gave Maureen a breathing treatment. We decided to cut breakfast short as Maureen’s energy levels are low at this point but we were successful in administering her Lisinopril, Claritin, and Flonase.

  • 12:48pm Rest period #1 is through. Diaper is medium wet - we cleaned, applied Cavilon barrier cream, and put on a new diaper.
