Today at the Birch Street Nursing Home, Ms. Jenkins told me her call button wasn't working. I asked her to show me what she was talking about, and she pulled out a dusty and dirty old gadget from under her bed. When I examined it, I found that the battery inside had corroded. I replaced the battery with a fresh one from the pantry, then looked for call buttons in all the other rooms. Sure enough, each room had a call button under the bed. I replaced the batteries in all of them. Once the buttons were working, the patients had fun contacting me to have me open their windows, close their windows, and open their windows again.
