The CNA stated that when Resident #68 was upstairs on another unit, he had always wanted his showers in the morning because he had more energy, and when he moved downstairs, she said that he wanted to keep this schedule. Staff H noted that Resident #68's shower schedule days were still reflected as Wednesdays and Saturdays in the evenings.
