2013-11-05 07:11:02 PM saraheve05 oh never thought about that one, we have staff do it

2013-11-05 07:11:21 PM laceym Yeah...
2013-11-05 07:11:29 PM dtracie11 how exciting
2013-11-05 07:11:30 PM carlosbarrera003 great idea

2013-11-05 07:11:44 PM kenneyjk29 Its worth the try!
2013-11-05 07:12:00 PM kathyhughes whats the worse that could happen?
2013-11-05 07:12:07 PM ajplatas walmart has layaway right now....
2013-11-05 07:12:08 PM kalamclemore my walmart hasnt been to friendly about donations.
2013-11-05 07:12:09 PM dtracie11 nothing!!
2013-11-05 07:12:14 PM teresa23 We have several churches that come out during the month of December and pass out gifts to everyone.
2013-11-05 07:12:17 PM susanmet123 We run around every year to find gifts for the residents, asking KMart to adopt us is a great idea.
2013-11-05 07:12:19 PM scalabrese they say no, and thats not bad
2013-11-05 07:12:20 PM dbrewer what kind of donations
2013-11-05 07:12:24 PM dtracie11 walmart is never helpful to us either
2013-11-05 07:12:33 PM carlosbarrera003 kmart sounds like a great idea . residents can always use clothes
2013-11-05 07:12:34 PM shigh I dont know about Walart but Tyco does
2013-11-05 07:12:43 PM kathyhughes I would make a list of what the residents would like
2013-11-05 07:12:55 PM teresa23 We are very fortunate!
2013-11-05 07:13:00 PM kathyhughes and I would send the list to area companies
2013-11-05 07:13:05 PM kalamclemore we have many churches and our staff that adopt some of the residents
2013-11-05 07:13:13 PM meg great ideas
2013-11-05 07:13:34 PM kathyhughes Churches and don't forget to ask everyone who calls
2013-11-05 07:13:37 PM laceym yes we are foinh the same in Dec as well.
2013-11-05 07:13:42 PM teresa23 We also have a tree with each resident's name on it and staff members pull a name and purchase a gift for that resident to give at our Christmas Party.
2013-11-05 07:13:48 PM kathyhughes I would have the list ready
2013-11-05 07:14:09 PM scalabrese we do the same thing teresa
2013-11-05 07:14:10 PM carolad We have an angel tree that the staff buys for the residents, it is really amazing what they uy
2013-11-05 07:14:11 PM dtracie11 great great ideas!! im writing it all down!!!
2013-11-05 07:14:15 PM kathyhughes What kind of gifts do you ask for?
2013-11-05 07:14:17 PM shigh I just finished my list today. It is hard sometimes to get residents to say what they might like.
2013-11-05 07:14:24 PM laceym We do a angel tree ever Dec. And they we always try and make sure that every resident has a gift..
2013-11-05 07:14:26 PM jcheney we r a very poor community but have the best givers! ppl call all the time wanting to donate
2013-11-05 07:14:27 PM ffunkemily do you guys have a place called HERO?
2013-11-05 07:14:39 PM indkids I suppose everyone is being pressured to reduce antipsychotics. What creative solutions have you found for those that exhibit bad behaviors?
2013-11-05 07:14:47 PM dtracie11 what do you think of this, i have a family member who wants to take other residents to her house for the holidays if their families dont show up. i didnt know what to tell her!!!!
2013-11-05 07:15:03 PM kathyhughes diversion and to have some soothing music handy
2013-11-05 07:15:06 PM dtracie11 good idea or bad idea
2013-11-05 07:15:10 PM saraheve05 we have lots of church's that help us out
2013-11-05 07:15:11 PM daniellagalvan87 has any of you tried adopt a resident in your faculity..? all staff and some families hear about it too. they buy a resident with no family a present then we are sure each resident has something to open with everyone else
2013-11-05 07:15:13 PM kalamclemore what a kind person
2013-11-05 07:15:17 PM laceym you need to ask the soical worker I guess
2013-11-05 07:15:17 PM sestes We do the angel tree also, make sure all residents get a gift. We put a spending amont on it
2013-11-05 07:15:18 PM maryhansen1 they cant do thAT
2013-11-05 07:15:20 PM kathyhughes I would let he
2013-11-05 07:15:20 PM teresa23 We have families that do that every year!
2013-11-05 07:15:28 PM indkids you'd have to get permisision from the poa
2013-11-05 07:15:34 PM pawood we have gatherings during the summer fishing trip and the family would cater the lunch its great
2013-11-05 07:15:34 PM laceym thats right
2013-11-05 07:15:42 PM kenneyjk29 @ inkids I use A LOT of sensory items....sometimes they are acting out due to boredom or feeling the need to want to do something...sometimes its as simple as having them assist in folding towels
