2017-04-13 06:10:52 PM pamgoodwin Yeah, my admistrator wouldn't have any part of a dunk tank
2017-04-13 06:10:56 PM tvs320 I like getting the staff involved
2017-04-13 06:11:02 PM edfoster Thats social services responsibility
2017-04-13 06:11:08 PM kathyhughes Transportation where?
2017-04-13 06:11:28 PM aclark we transport all over, within 30 min
2017-04-13 06:11:34 PM ryanklemmer At our facility. I am responsible for the drivers and it's been tough.
2017-04-13 06:11:52 PM edfoster THATS TWOJOB TITTLES
2017-04-13 06:12:04 PM edfoster SPELL CHECK
2017-04-13 06:12:14 PM aclark four of us take turns transporting
2017-04-13 06:12:15 PM ryanklemmer Sadly their work ethic is poor and I'm with the residents most of the day so I can't manage them the way I would like.
2017-04-13 06:12:23 PM kathyhughes It is difficult to be a department head for 2 departments
2017-04-13 06:12:26 PM edfoster 8-|
2017-04-13 06:12:38 PM nursesusie So true
2017-04-13 06:12:41 PM edfoster iTS ONLY TWO OF US.
2017-04-13 06:12:43 PM tvs320 That would be hard
2017-04-13 06:12:57 PM kathyhughes And are you in charge of Volunteers as well?
2017-04-13 06:13:09 PM ryanklemmer Lol, yes

2017-04-13 06:13:19 PM rosesyellow713 What kind of different activities does everyone do
2017-04-13 06:13:35 PM kathyhughes Hope that they are paying you for being 3 departments
2017-04-13 06:13:37 PM nursesusie I have some very good vlunteers
2017-04-13 06:13:53 PM tonih I bet they don't.
2017-04-13 06:13:57 PM edfoster WHAT IS REQUESTED BY THE RESIDENTS...THE USUAL STUFF
2017-04-13 06:14:06 PM isabel1 edfoster, work would be easy even if there's only 2 of you if you divide and conquer, as in your assistant should be very enthusiastic and could deliver the activities too
2017-04-13 06:14:14 PM kathyhughes Depends on your residents Rose
2017-04-13 06:14:29 PM heidihartsock we are having a black and white party next week. everything is going to be black and white
2017-04-13 06:14:34 PM aclark they gave me a raise and found three more drivrs, because when I went on a medical leave they realized how har I was working
2017-04-13 06:14:38 PM edfoster BINGO,COFFEE,SOCIALS,TRIPS,PARTIES,CHURCH, A LA CARTE,ETC.
2017-04-13 06:14:39 PM kathyhughes That should be fun
2017-04-13 06:14:56 PM kathyhughes Great Ann
2017-04-13 06:15:00 PM nursesusie new game called You Be The Judge
2017-04-13 06:15:00 PM ryanklemmer Lol. Sadly in my building I think activities can be underrated. I think I'm viewed as the one who has the fun and easy job, but many weeks I feel as if I barely can get my work load completed.
2017-04-13 06:15:01 PM rosesyellow713 I have a lot of activities i wanted to see what different things everyone does
2017-04-13 06:15:05 PM edfoster GOOD ACLARK
2017-04-13 06:15:10 PM aclark black and white party sounds neat, what do you do?
2017-04-13 06:15:12 PM kathyhughes We had residents plan their activities
2017-04-13 06:15:16 PM tvs320 Kathy in the last year there seems to be a high turn over in activity staff. Any hints on keeping them longer?
2017-04-13 06:15:28 PM pamgoodwin Tell me more about "you be the judge'
2017-04-13 06:15:57 PM aclark I ask my patients to help decide what they want to do, last time they wanted to go to the movies, so we went
2017-04-13 06:16:12 PM edfoster i WAS HAVING A PROM IN MAY BUT IT GOT PUSHED BACK TO JUNE...SUMMER BALL..PEOPLE ARE NOW DONATING GOWNS AND SIUTS
2017-04-13 06:16:19 PM kathyhughes It is hard to keep staff for activities, everyone thinks that it is easy.....educate the staff and encourage them to learn what to do
2017-04-13 06:16:23 PM heidihartsock wear black and white (for residents if possible) and we have pretty blcak and white cups, napkins, etc. oreo pudding and oreo cookies and milk to drink
2017-04-13 06:16:27 PM marissavega1274 o we play that, its a card game we read a real case then they decide if the person is guilty
2017-04-13 06:16:31 PM heidihartsock black and white trivia
2017-04-13 06:16:32 PM marissavega1274 pam
2017-04-13 06:16:46 PM tvs320 Its like we are a stepping stone for them.
2017-04-13 06:16:59 PM pamgoodwin Ok, sounds intresting...
2017-04-13 06:17:00 PM kathyhughes Encourage them to be involved in continiuing education and they have to learn all aspects of the job
2017-04-13 06:17:01 PM aclark yes, my two asst went PRN, just hired one, but still down one asst
2017-04-13 06:17:08 PM edfoster ITS A LOT BUT THE FUN PART HELPS, TRIPS, PARTIES AND FOOD.

2017-04-13 06:17:21 PM mark26 Are y'all ready for the easter celebration? I thinking of wearing an easter bunny costume for it.
2017-04-13 06:17:22 PM nursesusie you can get the cases out of the Readers Digest. It is like forgotten cases. yu rad the case and let the rsident decide what the verdict is
2017-04-13 06:17:31 PM kathyhughes Encourage them to go to conferences and workshops
2017-04-13 06:17:37 PM pamgoodwin Marissa, where do you find the cases?
2017-04-13 06:17:38 PM tonih Hire smart, it's better to wait for that right person than to just hire the firrst ones to apply. Then love, teach & encourage them.
2017-04-13 06:17:46 PM aclark ok sounds like a good idea
2017-04-13 06:17:51 PM marissavega1274 we have a game wo got on line

2017-04-13 06:18:40 PM ryanklemmer I recently hooked up our lap top to our big t.v. We are trying to use as much technology as possible with the residents. For example, the other day we used Google Maps to look up their houses they lived in in the 40s and 50s. It fascinated them to see what they look like now.
2017-04-13 06:18:51 PM pamgoodwin I'd like that if you could. Do you have my email?
2017-04-13 06:18:56 PM edfoster TWO YEARS OF WORKING AS AN ASSISTANT QUALIFIES THEM RIGHT?

2017-04-13 06:28:19 PM isabel1 ms kathy, you are right! we are the only persons who know how to plan. though most of them have a lot of ideas, mostly are not feasible. and considering the "residents" too. sometimes, they give a suggestion, then i adopt it, but they will not participate in the end.
2017-04-13 06:28:21 PM kathyhughes And so....for May.....How can we celebrate the Spirit of America?
2017-04-13 06:28:26 PM jillm Kathy I have a problem. My advisor was my ED and she moved to another city last week before I could get her to sign off on my Final Packet. Now what do I do?

2017-04-13 06:37:43 PM pamgoodwin I like the taco cart idea--going to run that past the peoples tommorrow--

2017-04-13 06:39:46 PM pamgoodwin You can't have any food in our lobby--our admistrator would have a fit--New Carpet--but the dining room during entertainment on that friday for Cinco de Mayo would be ideal for us.

2017-04-13 06:40:18 PM edfoster my residents are going outside
