2020-07-17 01:58:49 PM klevengood I am also NE Ohio!
2020-07-17 01:59:06 PM sherryllincoln hey buckeye!!
2020-07-17 02:00:21 PM sherryllincoln We need one more to make our group of 5, cross your fingers
2020-07-17 02:00:24 PM susanpmazziotta I imagine some of the students are confused about the assignment that said to locate the Diagnostic Intervention Grid. I guess the word grid throws everyone off. As near as I can tell it refers the Activie diagnoses in CMS RAI version 3.0 manual. Does everyone agree?
2020-07-17 02:00:42 PM klevengood I know
2020-07-17 02:00:53 PM klevengood oops, lol.. I know Sherry, hopfully more come in
2020-07-17 02:01:16 PM susanpmazziotta It looks like more than 5 signed up!
2020-07-17 02:01:30 PM gailgilberto some said maybe
2020-07-17 02:02:32 PM susanpmazziotta Well if it doesn't happen we can reschedule...we should give it a little more time.
2020-07-17 02:02:52 PM sherryllincoln yes, more time. I found the grid referenced in a book on Amazon...
2020-07-17 02:03:11 PM susanpmazziotta So is it what I said?
2020-07-17 02:03:38 PM susanpmazziotta I couldn't find grid on anything that coordinated with information.
2020-07-17 02:03:50 PM gailgilberto I had a hard time finding a grid - where did anyone find it?
2020-07-17 02:04:12 PM klevengood Susan, I emailed about this and was told that part of taking a class was to do research. I inquired with some FB groups who are activity professionals and it appears that the Diagnostic Intervention Grid isnt called that anymore. Its basically a care plan.
2020-07-17 02:04:16 PM sherryllincoln I think it's a tool, used as part of ev
2020-07-17 02:05:23 PM sherryllincoln oops, part of having interventions in place like a care plan, to go to?
2020-07-17 02:05:52 PM susanpmazziotta There was a reference at the bottom of some of the reading material and a link to the Activie Diagnoses. I was thinking that we would need to reference this in order to develop a care plan. Not sure if I am thinking correctly.
2020-07-17 02:06:01 PM gailgilberto I thought it was to find out the problem, evaluate and set goals. Am I wrong?
2020-07-17 02:07:23 PM susanpmazziotta We are in the middle of a COVID issue here and I have not been able to reach out to my administrator. Has anyone asked their leadership at work?
2020-07-17 02:07:29 PM klevengood @sherrylincoln.. thats what i thought......@susanmazziotta I printed that and it looks like computer program that lets you choose different diagnosis.... @gailgilberto I am with you
2020-07-17 02:07:44 PM sherryllincoln So the book is called Long Term Care for Activity Professionals, Social Service Professionals and Recreational Therapists. The mysterious grid is pg 31.
2020-07-17 02:08:02 PM klevengood @sherry YES!
2020-07-17 02:08:23 PM klevengood @sherry I didnt want to buy the book just for that , but it is the only place that this appears to be
2020-07-17 02:09:22 PM sherryllincoln I don't want to buy either. My facility is closed, but I know we don't have it.
2020-07-17 02:09:34 PM klevengood @susan I am in a very small assisted living home. We don't have to keep any sort of activity record. This is my first position at any sort of elderly home, I have 10 years with ID adults, and we had to keep records of everything.
2020-07-17 02:10:23 PM klevengood @sherry I guess its the same as a care plan.
2020-07-17 02:10:52 PM gailgilberto That is what it is called at our community -Care Plan
2020-07-17 02:11:12 PM sherryllincoln I think so too, may serve the same purpose...that's what I wrote and already turned in.
2020-07-17 02:11:44 PM gailgilberto I already wrote it up as well. Hoping it was correct
2020-07-17 02:12:34 PM klevengood I dont have to do any sort of care plans, activity records, nothing... I just have to put out a calendar and a news letter every month.
2020-07-17 02:12:45 PM sherryllincoln I'm going to ask for that book for Christmas lol
2020-07-17 02:13:07 PM klevengood :D
2020-07-17 02:13:11 PM susanpmazziotta I guess we will have to reschedule and set up and new time and do some research.
2020-07-17 02:13:45 PM klevengood Well this chat is supposed to be about the MDS 3.0 printout from the reading
2020-07-17 02:13:50 PM gailgilberto I believe someone is doing this on Monday night at 7 as well
2020-07-17 02:14:14 PM sherryllincoln Or go ahead with this and explain we showed up and did our best?
2020-07-17 02:14:47 PM gailgilberto I don't know it states we should have at least five
2020-07-17 02:15:31 PM klevengood I feel like we should get credit for this.. Unfortunatly, where I live, it is very rural and we do not have access to reliable internet at my home. The only internet I have is at work. So when we have the required chats, I have to come into work to participate.
2020-07-17 02:16:08 PM klevengood 7 people said they would come
2020-07-17 02:16:39 PM gailgilberto If you want to go ahead it will be practice if it doesn't count
2020-07-17 02:16:40 PM sherryllincoln Vote? I vote we stay and carry on. I will explain and call if I have to
2020-07-17 02:16:51 PM klevengood I agree sherry
2020-07-17 02:16:57 PM gailgilberto Go for it
2020-07-17 02:17:45 PM klevengood ok, cool.... Has everyone had a chance to look over the MDS 3.0 List of Active Diagnosis?
2020-07-17 02:17:51 PM gailgilberto yes
2020-07-17 02:18:01 PM sherryllincoln Yes Alrighty then! MDS 3.0, anyone use MDS? I don't but I get the gist of it
2020-07-17 02:18:18 PM gailgilberto No we do not use...but I get it
2020-07-17 02:18:41 PM klevengood We dont use it, but I can see how it could be helpful.
2020-07-17 02:18:55 PM sherryllincoln I think it gives you a picture of the person b4 you meet them.
2020-07-17 02:19:19 PM gailgilberto I do think it can be really usefully, but I am not sure that it is really benefical for activities
2020-07-17 02:19:54 PM klevengood I like knowing diagnosis before meeting a new admission that way I can adjust an activity to better suit them if needed.
2020-07-17 02:20:19 PM sherryllincoln If they have say Parkinson's, you kind of know what to expect, or hard of hearing
2020-07-17 02:20:19 PM klevengood But I come from a background of Nurse Aide and Med Tech lol
2020-07-17 02:21:00 PM gailgilberto I think talking with them one on one is more benfical
2020-07-17 02:21:26 PM susanpmazziotta Does anyone have page 31?
2020-07-17 02:21:39 PM gailgilberto Does anyone get to read alll the information before the residents come in
2020-07-17 02:21:42 PM sherryllincoln So it also shows inactive diagnosis? would that be like history of cancer?
2020-07-17 02:21:58 PM klevengood @susan I dont think so
2020-07-17 02:22:09 PM gailgilberto What is page 31?
2020-07-17 02:22:13 PM sherryllincoln I actually do get all the info
2020-07-17 02:22:36 PM sherryllincoln page 31 for the grid?
2020-07-17 02:22:38 PM klevengood @gail I am lucky if I get notified of a new admission lol, our communication is some what lacking. Sometimes its a few days befor I get a notification
2020-07-17 02:22:50 PM gailgilberto We do not.....so I have to learn about the resident as he comes to an activity
2020-07-17 02:23:06 PM susanpmazziotta I have looked over the 3.0 and I can see how it is important to be aware of the active diagnoses that our patient/resident may have. It will be important to refer to it when putting together a plan of care and scheduling activities.
2020-07-17 02:23:17 PM gailgilberto Communication what is that??
2020-07-17 02:23:21 PM klevengood @Sherry according to the reading, yes. It would be anything that has not effected them in the last 7 day
2020-07-17 02:23:55 PM susanpmazziotta I don't have access to the MDS form per se but I can see the diagnoses in the patient record. I am then alerted to the issues, for example visual or hearing issues.

2020-07-17 02:27:03 PM gailgilberto left the chat room
2020-07-17 02:27:08 PM susanpmazziotta Our situation is not as critical as a nursing home enviornment, but the expecation is to develop a plan of care and provide opportunites for patients to have activities or access to leisure activities of interest. Currently we have contracted with the state of Florida and we are 3 floors of active COVID patients.
2020-07-17 02:27:10 PM klevengood I eventually get some sort of paper that might tell me a little about them, but ususally not diagnosis.
2020-07-17 02:27:43 PM klevengood @Susan Oh my!
2020-07-17 02:28:05 PM gailgilberto enter the chat room
2020-07-17 02:28:24 PM susanpmazziotta Of course many of these people are from neighboring nursing facilities and we have alot of dementia right now.
2020-07-17 02:28:26 PM klevengood @sherry we are about a 50 bed facility. We are at about 38 now.
2020-07-17 02:28:56 PM susanpmazziotta Where is everyone located? I am in SW Florida.
2020-07-17 02:29:03 PM klevengood NE Ohio
2020-07-17 02:29:16 PM gailgilberto No assessment planning either. I think I am there for fun
2020-07-17 02:29:22 PM sherryllincoln So sorry to hear all that. We have been closed down since March and have lost 9 of our 85. NE Ohio
2020-07-17 02:30:00 PM susanpmazziotta Oh my 9 patients, it is a very difficult time. I think everyone is ready to move on.
2020-07-17 02:30:04 PM klevengood We closed about 2 weeks before the rest of the state and have been fortunate enough to not have had an cases in our facility
2020-07-17 02:30:09 PM gailgilberto South Carolina the Hot spot
2020-07-17 02:30:35 PM gailgilberto We have been closed since March with no opening in sight
2020-07-17 02:31:13 PM klevengood We just started taking in new admissions, but they are in quarantine for 14 days.
2020-07-17 02:31:31 PM sherryllincoln Same here Gail...I keep hearing rumors about opening tho. Are you Adult Day?

2020-07-17 02:32:01 PM susanpmazziotta We were doing great but I think some of the issue is CNA's sometime work at more than one facility and also lots of asymptomatic postives floating around.

2020-07-17 02:35:38 PM sherryllincoln We have alot of success, we have such a busy happy place. Once in a while someone is not appropriate to stay
2020-07-17 02:36:25 PM susanpmazziotta sherry where are you located and what kind of facility are you at?
2020-07-17 02:36:28 PM klevengood it is tough with tthe dementia. Alzheimers patients. We do Namaste with them and music
2020-07-17 02:36:59 PM susanpmazziotta What do you mean by Namaste-yoga?
2020-07-17 02:37:13 PM gailgilberto yogq is great
2020-07-17 02:37:17 PM klevengood Namaste is like relaxation
2020-07-17 02:37:46 PM klevengood Not yoga, its quiet room, soft light, familiar scents, massage
2020-07-17 02:37:49 PM susanpmazziotta Have you had luck with aromatherapy? Is it a specific relaxation technique-should i google it?
2020-07-17 02:38:00 PM klevengood there is a great book called Namaste for the end of life
2020-07-17 02:38:14 PM susanpmazziotta Oh quiet room love it. Thanks for the info....
2020-07-17 02:38:23 PM gailgilberto amazon?
2020-07-17 02:38:41 PM sherryllincoln NE Ohio. Adult Day medical model. We have lots of dementia and many who need daily nursing. They live with family, we keep them while family works. When they run out the firedoor and yell for help it's a dead giveaway not appropriate
2020-07-17 02:39:05 PM susanpmazziotta When we are not in the this covid world, most of my patients are rehabbing from surgery or a hospital stay of some kind, wounds, iv antibiotics....
2020-07-17 02:39:24 PM klevengood Yes, It is called The End of life Namaste Care Program for People with Dementia by Joyce Simard
2020-07-17 02:39:44 PM gailgilberto What type of communities does everyone else work in? Thank for the book info
2020-07-17 02:40:08 PM susanpmazziotta great info about the book
2020-07-17 02:40:18 PM klevengood We are considered Assisted Living.. I am not familiar with alot of the lingo yet lol.
2020-07-17 02:40:29 PM klevengood Its a great book
2020-07-17 02:40:38 PM gailgilberto We are Assisted Living and MC
2020-07-17 02:40:46 PM sherryllincoln Good to know about the yoga, I want a sensory room so bad!
2020-07-17 02:41:12 PM gailgilberto Do you use a separte room?
2020-07-17 02:41:26 PM susanpmazziotta I love the idea of sensory room...we have a beautiful gym but cannot use it now...maybe one day we can incorporate it.
2020-07-17 02:41:33 PM klevengood They wanted the current activity director to make a sensory room, but I dont think she fully undertstood what that meant.
2020-07-17 02:42:26 PM klevengood We have a cart with stuff on it to do Namaste stuff, but it would be better if we could have an entire room.
2020-07-17 02:42:37 PM sherryllincoln There are youtube videos with sensory rooms for dementia, check them out, want one in my house too lol
2020-07-17 02:42:45 PM susanpmazziotta What roles is everyone in? I am responsible for alot, I also create the calendar of activities and we post on TV's and I create a handout as well for all the patients.
2020-07-17 02:42:57 PM klevengood We either go to thier room or to one of our small sitting rooms
2020-07-17 02:43:36 PM gailgilberto Responsible for the calendar, facebook, web page and TV
2020-07-17 02:43:39 PM susanpmazziotta What kind of items do you put on the cart? I am always looking for supplies.
2020-07-17 02:44:24 PM klevengood My title is Activity Assistant, our director is retiring at the end of the year, but she has kind of stopped playing that role, per say.. I do monthly calendar, facebook, new letter
2020-07-17 02:44:54 PM gailgilberto We are lucky to be able to do small activites. I can only imagine had hard it is to do a cart all the time.
2020-07-17 02:45:05 PM sherryllincoln I do a bit of everything. Does anyone have MDS in their facility?
2020-07-17 02:45:07 PM klevengood We have aroma thereapy, lotions, music ( rivers, rain, whales, etc), nail care stuff
2020-07-17 02:45:26 PM klevengood No MDS here
2020-07-17 02:45:33 PM gailgilberto Sorry what is a MDS
2020-07-17 02:47:37 PM sherryllincoln Minimum Data Set. Medicare assessment tool. I've done alot of homecare in the past, Medicare stuff was a pain!
2020-07-17 02:48:16 PM gailgilberto Appreciate the info
2020-07-17 02:49:01 PM susanpmazziotta I have 3 MDS RN's
2020-07-17 02:49:22 PM sherryllincoln I understand there are bad facilities and we need rules, but it is so micromanaged now it makes it hard on the good places.
2020-07-17 02:49:42 PM susanpmazziotta Ahhhhh Medicare Guidelines. Have you all finished your Assingment 2 yet?
2020-07-17 02:50:09 PM gailgilberto No still working on it.
2020-07-17 02:50:22 PM klevengood I just have to do the Diagnostic Intervention Grid assignment, then Week 2 is done for me
2020-07-17 02:50:53 PM susanpmazziotta Has everyone reviewed the CMS Manual there is alot of info there as well.
2020-07-17 02:51:26 PM gailgilberto What is that and where
2020-07-17 02:51:32 PM klevengood what is CMS Manual?
2020-07-17 02:51:46 PM susanpmazziotta Oh I still have to do the written assignments. I struggle to get enough time but I am so far happy with the course.
2020-07-17 02:51:59 PM sherryllincoln Yes, done. So is anyone from the previous class?
2020-07-17 02:52:11 PM klevengood is everyone doing the course at their own pace?
2020-07-17 02:52:21 PM susanpmazziotta https://www.cms.gov/Medicare/Medicare
2020-07-17 02:52:24 PM gailgilberto Yes, own pace
2020-07-17 02:52:34 PM susanpmazziotta I am own pace too!
2020-07-17 02:52:52 PM klevengood me too, thats helpful so things dont have a due date
2020-07-17 02:53:19 PM gailgilberto I thought we did have a due date
2020-07-17 02:53:36 PM sherryllincoln I am ownpace. I want to work ahead but the material isn't there.
2020-07-17 02:53:46 PM susanpmazziotta I agree, life is too complicated otherwise. I think that this route will work better. I had to start over I was enrolled previously.
2020-07-17 02:54:05 PM sherryllincoln Me too, was on week 9.
2020-07-17 02:54:17 PM gailgilberto I had to start over also.
2020-07-17 02:54:40 PM klevengood there is no due date for own pace. You have a year to complete everything... I feel bad for all of you that were so far ahead in MEPAP, i was only on week 3

2020-07-17 02:57:34 PM susanpmazziotta Great, hopefully she will honor this, it is very difficult to coordinate everyone from all walks of life.

2020-07-17 06:02:20 PM vgreen I am not too happy with the homework part, keeping up, staying on track is not something I am too good at. Working in this field of work. It's action action movement and several activities in an hour. To sit and read and then write, something different.
