Sleep 5 hours 4 minutes risk level max


Weather 26 degrees- sunny
Toileted before shower. Toileted after puzzle time. Medium urine output. 
Activities: 
Walked up and down Cambridge drive for 10 mins. 866 steps complete. Short walk due to lack of sleep and it was hot. 


Progress notes: 
Greeted Sachin’s family at 1700. Sachin was hanging around the kitchen when I arrived. Toilet before shower, so I assisted him with brushing his teeth. Sachin appeared to be disinterested in our walk this afternoon, it took a lot of prompting to get Sachin going. We set off for our walk and only made it down Cambridge and back once due to lack of sleep and the weather being hot and Sachin was wearing his jumper and track pants. 866 steps complete in 10 minutes. We arrived home and headed into the puzzle room. Extra Epilim 200mg received at 1730 and taken. Sach’s heart rate was very high tonight. Reaching the mid to high 90’s. Sachin was working on different pieces of the puzzle through out the time and kept pulling them apart. All and some extra precautions taken today due to lack of sleep and risk level being high. Once Sachin got going with his puzzle his heart rate started to go down to mid 70’s. 1830 meds given and taken. Sachin completed a nice chunk of his puzzle tonight after he was focused. Into the family room at 1930. Another extra Epilim 200mg given at 1930 and taken. Sachin was quite calm sitting and watching tv. Saj toileted Sachin at approx. 2000 with some extra promoting and a medium urine output. Sleep tea made at 2010 and Sachin sat on the couch and drank the tea. Sachin ate some corn chips his favourite snack. I said goodbye. Shift ended at 2100.
