R2 said the CNA got him up and then just walked out before he could even say anything. R2 said it wasn't just today, it happens all the time and he is sick of it. R2 said he likes to get his teeth brushed before he goes down to breakfast. R2 said he has told the nurses but was not sure if the message got to V2 (DON). R2 said he is afraid of getting tooth decay if he doesn't get his teeth brushed. On 1/7/25 at 10:20 AM, V3 (CNA) said R2 is alert and able to voice what he needs 100%. V3 said in the morning, R2 gets a bed bath, dressed, up to his chair, gets his teeth brushed right away before going to breakfast. V3 said there was an emergency and she did not get to brush R2's teeth yet today.
