General Guidelines - Be sure that the call light is plugged in and functioning at all times. Some residents may not be able to use their call light. Be sure you check these residents frequently. Review of admission Record indicated Resident R1 was admitted on [DATE]. Review of Resident R1 MDS (minimum data set - a periodic assessment of resident needs), dated 1/24/26, indicated diagnosis of cancer( a disease of uncontrolled proliferation by transformed cells subject to evolution by natural selection), malnutrition (an imbalance between the nutrients your body needs to function and the nutrients it gets), and malignant neoplasm of larynx, unspecified ( cancer of your larynx or voice box).

Before leaving the room, the resident wrote that if the noise was not stopped, she was going to sleep on the couch down the hall.
