The repositioning was attempted without the lift and Resident 55 moved forward to the edge of the chair and had to be lowered to the floor. On 12/17/2014 at 4:40 PM Registered Nurse D confirmed that Resident 55 was to be transferred and repositioned using a Hoyer Lift and that the staff involved were re-educated on this. 2018-05-01
