2017-05-16 06:22:25 PM ericasouter pinterest is awesome
2017-05-16 06:22:29 PM monac PINTEREST IS AWESOME
2017-05-16 06:22:33 PM anissa44 Sorry Jill, I didn't see it.

2017-05-16 06:22:37 PM marciatrimiew jill06 what did you ask..missed it
2017-05-16 06:22:40 PM kbertocci jill- I got hired without either. They are paying for me to get certified. I started before I was even enrolled in the course and I'm the director of 109 bed skilled. I think it just depends on the facility
2017-05-16 06:22:45 PM traciewiggins110770 hmm... Big Red are nice too
2017-05-16 06:22:45 PM andreapeleg Jill my facility would if you have 5 years experience. My state accepts 5 years of expereince if not certified
2017-05-16 06:22:49 PM loriann hummmmmm
2017-05-16 06:22:56 PM martyr58 Our interim boss won't let us cook because she doesn't want the residents near the food prep. She's from the health center side- not our dementia unit
2017-05-16 06:22:58 PM courtneyr2009 activity connection is the best resource
2017-05-16 06:22:58 PM kathyhughes Jill I am not sure you can tell her that you are on the path to become certified

2017-05-16 06:23:24 PM jammydelbosque I'm hired without being certified but then again im just the activities assistant so i dont know if thats the reason they hired me without being certifited
2017-05-16 06:23:24 PM jill06 yes i have 7 plus years in activites and w a mepap 1 i hope she would
2017-05-16 06:23:26 PM kathyhughes Also you can be qualified if you have 2 years experience
2017-05-16 06:23:27 PM mblackstone10 throw the food out once its cooked if its a health concern

2017-05-16 06:36:00 PM kbertocci On a positive note, I am turning one of our outside patios into a beach (filling the high potters with sand) so the residents can pretend that they are at the beach. They are so excited.
