​Support worker:- James.
Seizure risk level:- Risk level- minimal
Previous night Sleep:- 9.54 hours sleep.
Resting heart rate:- 63 resting bpm.
 
ACTIVITIES.
Walk.
Jigsaw puzzle work.
 
WEATHER:
22 degrees, Sunny.
 
Mood:
Sachin appeared ok at start of shift, he smiled during our evening walk and made what appeared to me as happy sounds. Sachin had a moment of “out of the normal” behaviour when we returned from walking, he covered his ears with his hands and appeared to ignore myself and family.
 
NOTES:
Sachin was encouraged to use the toilet at the start of shift, he declined the use.
I then assisted Sachin brushing his teeth.
Sachin and I drove to Brooklyn fields today, we used the swing set there for 10 minutes, Sachin swung and propelled himself well.
We then walked along streets with large trees using the shade from the sun. Sachin done 3339 steps.
While driving back to the house at approximately 500 metres away he covered his ears and went quiet, the car radio was on gently playing will Smith, sachins mother later told me he appears to be not fond of will.
Sachin continued covering his ears in the house, he sat and ignored us for 20 minutes. I made Sachin a cuppa, this seemed to snap him out of it and we continued on with our routine.
We took our teas and went to the programs room for jigsaw puzzle time.
Sachin had his medication and a panadol (for a possible headache) at 1830, administered by his father.
At 1930 hours we packed up and went to the lounge where we watched TV with mum and nan.
Shift ceased at 2000 hours.
