75. On January 2, 2003, the duty nurse informed the Medical Coordinator of the Prison System that Mrs. Chinchilla “refuses to have her wounds cleaned by [her], as she says that the inmate Gina Samayoa is cleaning them and that she can continue doing her the favor.” The nurse reported that “the lady is very negative” and explained that “on December 31, Marlene Lavagnino visited the Center and was informed of the problem, and went down to block “C” to talk to the inmate, but she continued with her negative attitude.” She said that “the lady is very difficult and [she did] not know how to prevent the infection in those wounds because of the bad practice employed by the inmate who cleans them.” 113 76. According to the information available, Mrs. Chinchilla was granted permission to attend medical appointments on January 8, 15, 29 and 31; March 28; and April 4, 14 and 23, 2003.114 77. On March 14, 2003, the duty nurse at the COF reported that Mrs. Chinchilla’s wounds were not cleaned because “she refused, [saying] that the inmate Gina Samayoa, housed in the same block, was doing it.” She said that she “spoke to her to make her aware of the need for a nurse to do the cleaning of the wound.” She said that “this inmate will not see reason”, and that she became negative, “telling her that she wanted to be left in peace.” She said that “for the moment, she does not need cleaning because the stump has already dried and the area is clean.”115 78. According to official letters dated April 4 and June 19, 2003, the COF doctor stated that, given her physical impediment and state of health, there was no objection to Mrs. Chinchilla receiving her visit in the maternal wing where she lived within the prison. 79.
