Support worker:- James.
Seizure risk level:- Risk level, Maximum.
Previous night Sleep:- 3.40 hours sleep.
Resting heart rate:- 67 bpm.
 
ACTIVITIES.
Jigsaw puzzle work.
Car Ride.
 
Weather:
12 degrees, Overcast.
 
Mood:
Sachin was more alert, vocal and physically active than normal, he had a higher than normal BPM and it would spike unpredictability.


Notes:
Called in for assistance today, Sachin has had minimal sleep and a abnormal high resting heart rate, all precautions and calming aids used to ensure a calm environment.
Sachin, his family and I went for a car ride this evening in attempts to keep him calm and stress free, Sachin likes car rides and in particular appeared to like the city night lights at a look out we went to.
We returned to the house and at approximately 1740 hours Sachin used the toilet, No urine produced, Sachin was then assisted with brushing his teeth.
Medication at 1700, 1830 and 1930 hours tonight.
Sachin and I sat in the lounge room tonight, saj decided against doing Jigsaw puzzles, he believed if Sachin got stuck it might cause unwanted stress on Sachin and therefore a higher risk to seizure.
Sachin had a snack on the couch, then was taken to the toilet by his mother.
Sachin had a brief video call with his brother Rahul, Sachin glanced at the phone a few times.
Lavender was applied to Sachins top lip every half hour and the lavender diffuser was on in the lounge.
Sachin had double does chamomile tea tonight.
Shift ceased at 2000 hours.
