2. The UAI for resident 7, dated 06/14/2023, and the ISP for resident 7, dated 11/07/2023, both indicate that this resident requires mechanical assistance with toileting, transferring, and mobility; however, the ISP does not indicate what type of mechanical assistance is needed for toileting, transferring, and mobility. The same UAI and ISP for resident 7 also indicates that the resident is incontinent of bladder; however, the ISP indicates that the resident requires mechanical assistance for bladder incontinence but does not specify what type of mechanical assistance is needed.
