Review of medical record for Resident #82 revealed admission date of 04/05/24. Diagnoses include chronic
obstructive pulmonary disease, lupus, gastrostomy tube, and west nile virus. Resident #82 remains in the
facility.

physician orders dated 04/26/24 for Resident #82 revealed an order for a 50 ml free water flush for 22
hours (12:00 P.M. to 10:00 A.M.).
