2017-01-24 07:12:42 PM chriswills looking for the alheimers room
2017-01-24 07:12:43 PM jessicarae we pretend we are traveling to a destination
2017-01-24 07:12:46 PM samanthaculver oh.......................
2017-01-24 07:12:48 PM juliannag is it just extra credit after 5 chats?
2017-01-24 07:12:50 PM amberrwetherill How do I know that it is being shown that I am doing the readings and everything that isnt necessarily graded by you Kathy?? I know you have told me before others grade those. But I haven't seen any grades for those.
2017-01-24 07:12:50 PM jbigham jamie, I believe it depends on your state requirements. NC only requires part one for assisted living.
2017-01-24 07:12:53 PM jodie583 chriswills - tomorrow, i think
2017-01-24 07:12:56 PM sarah1111 is anyone getting a raise after they finish school??

2017-01-24 07:18:25 PM 123504147 When you are on flu lock down I don't think you can go room to room for individual activities. They have to have things they can do on their own. Listening to music, television, magazines, coloring, etc.
