A form titled Illinois Department of Public Health documented on 10/18/24, R35 fell out of her wheelchair while being transported by staff in the dining room. According to the form, R35 put her foot down and lunged forward out of the wheelchair and onto the floor. R35 was hospitalized and returned to the facility on [DATE].
