results, added she spoke to the nurse recently who asked for when they can give her ice ships and told her

ships, for trial. Staff B stated she had Resident #1 brush her teeth, the Frazier free water protocol, she
cleaned in her checks with a sponge and under her lips and gave her ice chips; the resident tolerated that
well. Staff B stated the Frazier free water protocol is a safe way to test that would not cause pneumonia.
