According to ADM, there is no schedule to follow for change in diapers. The residents are checked every 4 hours and as needed. There was an instance where R1 doesn't want to get changed and the staff kept asking. An ombudsman arrived and talked to the resident and staff was able to change the diaper.

S2 also mentioned that they monitor the residents with regards to their diapers but sometimes they are the ones who doesn't want to get changed when they are having behaviors. They just wear it just in case of accidents, but all residents are able to go to the bathroom by themselves. For the allegation of Residents are not allowed to use the telephone and Staff isolated resident, RP stated that a day program attempted to contact a resident with home activities.
