NOTES:
Sachin was awake, showered & drinking his pot of tea at the kitchen table when I arrived. Upon hearing from Praveena Sachin has had minimal sleep, just 4:51 hours I immediately enacted all calming measures for Sachin. Half hourly lavender oil on his chin to breath in, lavender diffuser in lounge turned on hours earlier, calm behaviour from parents and carer to encourage the same from Sachin, a relaxing environment for Sachin and constant vigilant supervision of Sachin &BPM.
When I arrived his bpm was 95 to 110, sitting at the table he would be 95 and when he got up to walk around he’d head up to 110. Praveena got dinner out of the way, I got his toilet break, teeth brushing and cups of tea knocked out quick so we could sit calmly on the lounge. The first 20 minutes on the lounge saw his bpm drop to 80’s, the next 20 minutes went down further to 60’s to 70. Being seated on the couch with lavender oil on his chin, heated blanket and hot water bottle has worked well for Sachin. Sachin used his ipad and also watched postcards TV show on TV. At 1830 hours Sachin was treated to a coconut oil head massage from his mother, when Sachin has a minimum sleep night it is normal procedure that his mother will do this for him, he appeared to like it.
Sachin sat and watched Aquaman movie contently, he had a bpm of mid 70’s. At 2000 hours Sachin used the toilet ( Large urine ) then assisted making new cups of tea and returned to the couch with it and a bowl of chips.
From 2000 hours to 2130 hours Sachin sat and used his ipad and watched aquaman with no issues.
Shift ceased at 2130 hours.
