2019-06-04 06:48:47 PM amandas love activity connections. daily chronicles are our favorite newspaper!
2019-06-04 06:48:51 PM julielynnmincek when my residents get too loud or rowdy or mean. i dont call the next number i just sit there and then they feel bad

2019-06-04 06:49:43 PM rbordelon Thanks julielynn
2019-06-04 06:49:48 PM tracyanderson I think I've gotta spend some time exploring activity connection. And we can't have guests, residents, or even timid staff calling bingo - they get eaten alive:(
2019-06-04 06:49:48 PM quiana we do daily chronicles too Amandas..

2019-06-04 06:51:54 PM melodyr I remind our residents that this is everyone's home. You may not like one another, however, this is all of your homes and you need to be respectful to each other. If you are not able to be respectful to each other I ask that you leave now. If I hear of anyone being disrespectful I will ask you to leave

2019-06-04 06:54:50 PM kathyhughes ask away Julie
2019-06-04 06:54:58 PM pattym thanks for the link kathy
2019-06-04 06:55:03 PM julielynnmincek if a resident comes to an activity but loves to people watch and watch the activity that we are doing but does not particiapte is that a refusal to chart ?
2019-06-04 06:55:22 PM rbordelon no
2019-06-04 06:55:32 PM julielynnmincek because for me there is no way to chart that they just observed
2019-06-04 06:55:38 PM kathyhughes That is a passive observer and has a history of enjoying people watching

2019-06-04 06:56:29 PM kathyhughes If her assessment shows that she was not social and perferred activities on her own then I would not have a problem with that
2019-06-04 06:57:25 PM julielynnmincek so say they come to bingo but do not play but enjoy the conversations in between would it be Active under the bingo column or Refused? im just a little lost on how to chart that
2019-06-04 06:57:53 PM millermary8 I usually out it as active b/c they were there and participated at a social level
2019-06-04 06:57:56 PM kathyhughes There is NO refusal....the resident attended to socialize with others
2019-06-04 06:57:57 PM millermary8 *put
2019-06-04 06:58:06 PM kathyhughes She did not refuse
2019-06-04 06:58:19 PM foxkaren left the chat room
2019-06-04 06:58:24 PM kathyhughes and she socialized with others
2019-06-04 06:58:33 PM lpike left the chat room
2019-06-04 06:58:34 PM lpike enter the chat room
2019-06-04 06:58:48 PM millermary8 just a different way to be active/participate ;)
2019-06-04 06:58:54 PM kathyhughes Sometimes we make things harder than they should be
2019-06-04 06:59:05 PM julielynnmincek ok so i would just basically chart under socialization and nothing under bingo? am i getting closer to understanding?
2019-06-04 06:59:17 PM kathyhughes if you are documenting exactly what the resident is doing then you should not have an issue
2019-06-04 06:59:18 PM julielynnmincek i know. i overthink way tooooo much
2019-06-04 06:59:20 PM julielynnmincek im sorry
2019-06-04 06:59:42 PM julielynnmincek okie dokie. thank you so much. think we're on the same page now
2019-06-04 06:59:57 PM kathyhughes You do over think and I am not sure why you have those catagories
2019-06-04 07:00:04 PM kathyhughes it is just nuts
2019-06-04 07:00:16 PM lupita have a good night everyone
2019-06-04 07:00:22 PM millermary8 night!
2019-06-04 07:00:22 PM kathyhughes you should document what a resident is doing and not catagorize them
2019-06-04 07:00:42 PM dianeg left the chat room
2019-06-04 07:00:44 PM kathyhughes She attended Bingo to socialize with others
2019-06-04 07:01:05 PM dwilliams left the chat room
2019-06-04 07:01:12 PM julielynnmincek i agree with you but our documentation is already catagorized. if something is not listed then yes we write in what they did.
2019-06-04 07:01:35 PM kathyhughes I would change the documentation
2019-06-04 07:01:45 PM millermary8 left the chat room
2019-06-04 07:04:19 PM julielynnmincek it's what the company has us use. i only can add 3 diff activities then there is no room for change.
2019-06-04 07:04:34 PM kathyhughes Its Brookdale correct???
2019-06-04 07:05:03 PM julielynnmincek but i really do get what you are saying now and i agree.
