Hi! Why is it hard to get her UA? Is it because she goes to the bathroom independently whenever she wants to? Or is it because she doesn’t want to use a urine hat? If I know what her concern is, we can figure out a way to help her cooperate. Let me know what you are thinking.
Hi Rachel: Any chance you have any suggestions in how to get a urine specimen for a resident in memory Care to verify a UTI? She is a resident in one of your Brookdale locations – but in florida. Any suggestions would be sincerely appreciated!
