2020-07-20 06:22:31 PM gwenbess There is so much information on the Diagnostic Grid that can be helpful to the activities director as they plan for their residents. When using the grid, the Activity Director will be able to have access to the physiological, developmental, psychological, social-economic cultural and spiritual needs of the residents.
2020-07-20 06:22:33 PM michelled whew at least I am not the only one.

2020-07-20 06:31:56 PM michelled yes I attned care plan meetings for the most part they are not interested in activities.
2020-07-20 06:31:58 PM michr I was in the field years ago as an activities assistant.I'm interested in getting back into the field.
2020-07-20 06:32:02 PM flossie Me too! Hope I found the right thing
2020-07-20 06:32:14 PM flossie michelled Agreed
2020-07-20 06:32:15 PM conniecrisp Our facility uses PCC. Yes, I participate in care plan meetings such as they are now.
2020-07-20 06:32:17 PM reneewhite thanks everyone for answering my questions
2020-07-20 06:32:31 PM sandishell19 I am a CNA, I have worked in the front office as admiastator assitant, then activities assistant. They told me to check into this and see if it was something I would like to do. And I like what I saw. so here I am.
2020-07-20 06:33:00 PM gwenbess I am included. We have a stand up every morning and i have to share my plans for the week. They all want to know what i have planned. its awesome.
2020-07-20 06:33:30 PM michelled that must be nice no one cares what I have to say.
2020-07-20 06:33:47 PM flossie michelled I feel that way often also

2020-07-20 06:34:27 PM michelled I have a don who for some reason hates me and everything I do is never good enough for her
2020-07-20 06:34:38 PM michr Flossie and Michelle d: I had googled the diagnostic intervention grid but what came up didn't seem right to me so I'm still searching.
2020-07-20 06:34:48 PM flossie http://www.reply-mc.com/2011/12/03/diagnostic-interventions/
2020-07-20 06:34:53 PM sandishell19 Our facility is very interested in what activities is doing.

2020-07-20 06:35:48 PM gwenbess Michelle keep your chin up. You are making a difference in the lives that matter most.
2020-07-20 06:35:51 PM michelled the one i used is the one she put on the assisnment page
2020-07-20 06:36:18 PM conniecrisp I think Activities is vital to care plans. We see residents for one on one more than any dept head
2020-07-20 06:36:30 PM michelled some days it feels like a waste. I have driven home in tears so many times
2020-07-20 06:36:34 PM michr Hi Flossie, thank you!
2020-07-20 06:36:39 PM gwenbess True Connie.
2020-07-20 06:37:25 PM flossie michr Hello!
2020-07-20 06:37:53 PM gwenbess Our portion is not an option. Activities is a main part of our programs. Dont let anyone discourage you.
2020-07-20 06:38:08 PM conniecrisp Michelled, you are providing a valuable service to your residents. Hold your head up! I think nursing is the same everywhere; they dont see the benefit unless they need our help.

2020-07-20 06:39:01 PM ldoherty Hello this is lauren!!
2020-07-20 06:39:12 PM michelled So how else are we to use the grid
2020-07-20 06:39:21 PM gwenbess Any other suggestions or ideas about how the MDS is benficial to our program.
2020-07-20 06:39:57 PM ldoherty left the chat room
2020-07-20 06:40:50 PM michelled I'm at a loss with this one
2020-07-20 06:40:54 PM sandishell19 Since this COVID-19 started and everyone is on lock down, I have seen the differance that activities makes in the residents. The lack of entertianment and socilism has caused alot of negative changes in my residents
2020-07-20 06:41:18 PM conniecrisp I think the MDS gives a clear overview of a resident's strengths, weaknesses, and needs. I refer to it often when planning what to do for in-room now.
2020-07-20 06:41:33 PM gwenbess I have been told that as well. Seeing that i just in April.
2020-07-20 06:41:41 PM sandishell19 MDS helps us plan for our residents from the medical point of view
2020-07-20 06:41:57 PM stephberry98 I would agree with that my residents just miss seeing each other and I would agree that it gives a really good broad picture
2020-07-20 06:42:14 PM gwenbess Connie it really helps when you our at a loss for what to do next.
