2019-05-28 05:46:22 PM faithburns89 kullalicia15 how many do we need for the life dialog just one partner or can it be more then one?
2019-05-28 05:46:43 PM kullalicia15 why do we need emails kathy?
2019-05-28 05:46:50 PM kathyhughes 1 other person will be fine, the bigger the group the more ideas
2019-05-28 05:46:53 PM pattym One is the assignment for week 4 3 sensory programs and 3 one to one programs. Do all 3 group programs need to be the same theme?
2019-05-28 05:47:26 PM kathyhughes Because there are 5 MEPAP1 classes here...some started this month, some are finishing this month and some started 1 year ago
2019-05-28 05:47:29 PM pattym and what is the handout for the one to one visits?
2019-05-28 05:47:48 PM mindyyoung1978 enter the chat room
2019-05-28 05:47:53 PM faithburns89 kullalicia15 so mrs. kathy we just need to comment in the practicum forum our future plan events? under the life dialog?
2019-05-28 05:47:57 PM kathyhughes Patty, no they all need to be sensory programs they do not need a theme
2019-05-28 05:48:10 PM pattym Oh great thanks Kathy
2019-05-28 05:48:28 PM kathyhughes For the 1-1 visits what are you going to give the resident to remind them that they participated in an activity
2019-05-28 05:48:48 PM pattym ok got it...thanks so much appreciate your help
2019-05-28 05:49:18 PM deedee19 i have a question
2019-05-28 05:49:23 PM kathyhughes Faith, once you have met with the others for the Practicum chat you will post that you did and who joined you
2019-05-28 05:49:29 PM kathyhughes Ask away
2019-05-28 05:49:30 PM kullalicia15 i would let them keep what ever we made . or what ever i brought to them
2019-05-28 05:50:04 PM kathyhughes Good idea Alicia
2019-05-28 05:50:04 PM deedee19 on the sensory programs you had said that the cooking class would not count. Is their a specific reason why that would not count?
2019-05-28 05:50:14 PM pattym I cant do that kullalicia
2019-05-28 05:51:36 PM pattym but gave me some ideas alicia ty
2019-05-28 05:51:47 PM millermary8 enter the chat room
2019-05-28 05:51:50 PM kathyhughes Because a cooking class would be for the alert residents who enjoy cooking...Sensory programs are for lower functioning residents and they might not be able to cook...now if you were doing a cooking program to encourage sensory stimulation and the residents are being encouraged to increase their appetite then that would be fine
2019-05-28 05:52:21 PM pattym terrific thats what I did and was vcery specific with it Kathy
2019-05-28 05:52:36 PM mschlimm1972 enter the chat room
2019-05-28 05:52:44 PM kathyhughes But most students say cooking class and it is more about cooking and socializing than sensory stimulation
2019-05-28 05:53:06 PM pattym right but not mine...I understood
2019-05-28 05:53:22 PM kathyhughes great

2019-05-28 06:02:41 PM kathyhughes Julie to become an ADC you will need to complete the MEPAP2 as well...your director more than likely assumed she was certified
2019-05-28 06:02:47 PM kathyhughes it happens all the time
2019-05-28 06:03:09 PM kathyhughes Faith you receive a certificate of completion via email and snail mail
2019-05-28 06:03:20 PM julielynnmincek ohhhhh, ok.
2019-05-28 06:03:27 PM kathyhughes Tasha what calendar assignment
2019-05-28 06:03:28 PM dwilliams Tasha maybe we need to get together and figure it out
2019-05-28 06:03:39 PM mschlimm1972 After reading- my interpretation is that the MEPAP I is a training and not a certification.
2019-05-28 06:03:50 PM rbordelon i told my director that we needed both and she said no also
2019-05-28 06:03:53 PM kathyhughes Correct Melissa
2019-05-28 06:04:01 PM sherryc We need to finish the MEPAP I and II classes to apply to get the certificate
2019-05-28 06:04:02 PM lupita when u complete MEPA2 you still need a year of training correct
2019-05-28 06:04:06 PM dwilliams Activity planning, Activities on a Budget
2019-05-28 06:04:07 PM kathyhughes well then perhaps they should read the standards
2019-05-28 06:04:10 PM chavisheather815 Doing well Patty. My son is graduating tomorrow!
2019-05-28 06:04:11 PM tashawade The fourth assignment where you make up a list of activities for diffrent residents
2019-05-28 06:04:15 PM sherryc Lupita I think it depends which track you are on
2019-05-28 06:04:28 PM pattym congratulations chavis..
2019-05-28 06:04:31 PM julielynnmincek im going to do both regardless to better myself i just couldnt figure out how my drector said she didnt need part 2. was just curious no biggie
2019-05-28 06:04:31 PM kathyhughes There are 5 components to ADC....
2019-05-28 06:04:43 PM kathyhughes You will need to review them...
2019-05-28 06:04:51 PM quiana i like week 4 assiignments
2019-05-28 06:04:53 PM chavisheather815 Thanks :)
2019-05-28 06:04:53 PM tashawade Yes dwilliams that sounds like a plan
2019-05-28 06:04:59 PM kathyhughes the 4th assignment....with the audit??
2019-05-28 06:05:12 PM kathyhughes You are to audit your initial activities assessments
2019-05-28 06:05:15 PM kathyhughes Why????
2019-05-28 06:05:23 PM tashawade yes
2019-05-28 06:05:38 PM kathyhughes Because the survey team looks at your Initial Activities Assessment if they have questions about a resident
2019-05-28 06:05:51 PM kathyhughes they want to use that before they ask you any question
2019-05-28 06:05:58 PM mschlimm1972 I feel that some Executive Directors have had a misinterpretation of the MePAP and what it truly
2019-05-28 06:06:12 PM tashawade Ok. Thanks
2019-05-28 06:06:19 PM deedee19 are the initial assessments and pellys the same or actually different
2019-05-28 06:06:19 PM pattym you have to tell them mschl
2019-05-28 06:06:20 PM dwilliams same here Kathy the one with activities on a budget i'm a little confused on that
2019-05-28 06:06:28 PM kathyhughes so they look at the Intial ACtivities assessment and then look at your calendar to see if that resident has activities that they are interested in
2019-05-28 06:06:40 PM faithburns89 kullalicia15 basicilly you have to know your residents all over interests..?
2019-05-28 06:06:47 PM sherryc I have been stagnant on week 3. Good thing I am in the PACE class! Life just gets lifey sometimes
2019-05-28 06:06:50 PM mschlimm1972 We just went through our annual survey and they did ask a few questions regarding the assessment preferences
2019-05-28 06:07:07 PM kathyhughes You still have to make sure that your paperwork is consistant
2019-05-28 06:07:14 PM drewenriquez They look at the care plan too correct? to make sure our approaches are being done?
2019-05-28 06:07:16 PM pattym yes they will all person centered resident centered care
2019-05-28 06:07:22 PM sherryc It seems to be different in an LTC than in an assisted living environment
2019-05-28 06:07:29 PM ronda I am in week 3 as well Sherryc
2019-05-28 06:07:34 PM pattym it is sherry
2019-05-28 06:07:54 PM aliciahatcher enter the chat room
2019-05-28 06:07:58 PM sherryc Can't seem to break through Ronda 8-)
2019-05-28 06:08:06 PM kathyhughes So once you have done the audit of the initial assessment you are to decide which activities you are lacking and which activiteis you need to have to meet their needs and interests
2019-05-28 06:08:12 PM faithburns89 basiclly you have to know your residents over all interests?
2019-05-28 06:08:22 PM quiana (Tp)
2019-05-28 06:08:27 PM mschlimm1972 Yes LTC is so different than assisted living and I just met with an independent living site for the part in our mid term and that is TOTALLY different!!
2019-05-28 06:08:29 PM faithburns89 when suverys come into the facility?
2019-05-28 06:08:30 PM pattym yes faith...MUST know your residents
2019-05-28 06:08:39 PM kathyhughes Basically you need to look at those initial assessments on a regular basis
2019-05-28 06:08:49 PM faithburns89 ok
2019-05-28 06:08:51 PM tashawade That is much clearer now. Thank you.
2019-05-28 06:08:59 PM kathyhughes And ALF residents still need their needs and interests met as well
2019-05-28 06:09:08 PM pattym exactly things change
2019-05-28 06:09:10 PM mschlimm1972 It is very stressful when they come in
2019-05-28 06:09:16 PM kathyhughes as I am sure that a survey team will be looking to see if they are being met
2019-05-28 06:09:16 PM rbordelon kathy i work for at a skilled facility and a longterm facility band its hard to get the rehab residents out of the room
2019-05-28 06:09:17 PM kullalicia15 wwhen ur doing ur assesment u wanna get to know that person as much as possible right then
2019-05-28 06:09:29 PM dwilliams Tasha how do we get together
2019-05-28 06:09:35 PM faithburns89 its benifically i worked with them as a cna before i started in activties i know what most of them like whom are long term
2019-05-28 06:09:38 PM kathyhughes correct Alicia
2019-05-28 06:09:41 PM pattym yes alicia
2019-05-28 06:09:41 PM sherryc Yes but the format is very different. They don't have care plans in ALF.
2019-05-28 06:09:53 PM sheetp enter the chat room
2019-05-28 06:09:56 PM tashawade there is a priviate chat dwilliams
2019-05-28 06:10:00 PM deedee19 i think i have been doing it all wrong. i was told the pellys is what needed to be done before anything so i think i need to go back and do the assessments. asap
2019-05-28 06:10:03 PM pattym if you know your residnets alicia it allo falls into placer
2019-05-28 06:10:05 PM kathyhughes REhab people do not want to be "with those people"
2019-05-28 06:10:12 PM millermary8 i have luck working with the physical therapy teams to have them drop them off by the activity room right when we start and explain how are activity will help them recover and get home faster
2019-05-28 06:10:23 PM pattym agree kathy
2019-05-28 06:10:26 PM virginiamooney Ditto. Skill peeps get pooped after therapy. lol I have found rock painting to be the thing that gets them out and laughing.
2019-05-28 06:10:26 PM millermary8 and a lot of rehab people are afraid that they'll get sick if they come out
2019-05-28 06:10:27 PM cassandras what are pellys?
2019-05-28 06:10:28 PM kathyhughes Deborah...in Ohio you need to do the Pelly
2019-05-28 06:10:35 PM kathyhughes it is required only in Ohio
2019-05-28 06:10:39 PM pattym its about approach and a variety of programs geared to all
2019-05-28 06:10:48 PM sheetp Hi i am Sheetal from NJ
2019-05-28 06:10:49 PM julielynnmincek rbordelon, i understand this. most of our rehab pts just want to isolate, do thei rhterapy and go home. most of them dont like to socialize with people who are "less" than them even tho they shouldnt treat others that way but what can you do..
2019-05-28 06:10:53 PM deedee19 okay but the initial assessment is required as well
2019-05-28 06:10:55 PM faithburns89 thats their exact comments when you try to get them to come out for act.
2019-05-28 06:11:08 PM cassandras thanks!
2019-05-28 06:11:12 PM kathyhughes Pelly....Cassandra you can google it...it is a very long assessment form for Ohio
2019-05-28 06:11:12 PM rbordelon yes kathy that the answer i get al the time
2019-05-28 06:11:32 PM drewenriquez A lot of my rehab people dont want to be a part of the activities because its "one step closer to being in a home"
2019-05-28 06:11:33 PM cassandras I will!
2019-05-28 06:11:37 PM aliciahatcher Exactly patty! We have a MC resident that is very hard to get out of her room, so we are looking into news ways to entice her.
2019-05-28 06:12:11 PM mschlimm1972 Our coorporate office has decided to discontinue the PELI- I was very surprised that they decided that- but i was told it was a Medicare riembursement tool
2019-05-28 06:12:18 PM quiana they only come to the church services and happy hour
2019-05-28 06:12:24 PM pattym right have to think outside of the box alicia
2019-05-28 06:12:25 PM rbordelon if its music they might come out
2019-05-28 06:12:36 PM kathyhughes think of it this way....Rehab residents have to have therapy...they need to relearn a whole bunch of ways to do things their brains are like 2 year olds who are learing how to walk, talk, feed them selves...they are exhausted
