2014-03-27 06:08:36 PM kathyhughes right
2014-03-27 06:08:48 PM olawaleajayi Depends on the weight of each task right?
2014-03-27 06:08:54 PM nitaree I think....if we get the right people behind us...it is not bad
2014-03-27 06:08:58 PM stacels709 If you looked at my desk/office, it may not look organized but I know where everything is. LOL They say a cluttered desk is a sign of genius and I will go with that.
2014-03-27 06:09:21 PM nitaree Cluttered deot goodsk is n
2014-03-27 06:09:22 PM bdappert lol
2014-03-27 06:09:24 PM kathyhughes depends on what has to get done and how much time it takes to complete the tasks
2014-03-27 06:09:30 PM olawaleajayi Yeah mine's never organized

2014-03-27 06:12:05 PM nitaree Well.....we actually get to see WHAT we have..ha
2014-03-27 06:12:06 PM kathyhughes And being organized is helpful I guess
2014-03-27 06:12:11 PM olawaleajayi Sometimes it just feels good to leave the clutter on your desk because you can actually visualize where things are
2014-03-27 06:12:32 PM kathyhughes Also taking inventory once a year helps
2014-03-27 06:12:44 PM nitaree oh thats a plus
2014-03-27 06:12:46 PM kathyhughes I would have everyone do that in January
2014-03-27 06:12:46 PM olawaleajayi True
2014-03-27 06:13:05 PM kathyhughes so that we knew what we had and could plan activities
2014-03-27 06:13:15 PM nitaree We had games out the waazooooo...that we didnt know we had
2014-03-27 06:13:33 PM stacels709 A previous activity director of mine would give us 2 days off the floor and we had to organize everything related to our department, on unit storage, the pantry/storage room, our cubicles, etc.
2014-03-27 06:13:39 PM kathyhughes there you go! Craft supplies from the games
2014-03-27 06:13:42 PM bdappert i think that all activities directors offices are always a mess! we are constanstanly in and out dumping this and dropping off that and we NEVER THROUGH ANYTHING AWAY!!
2014-03-27 06:13:47 PM nitaree YEP
2014-03-27 06:14:32 PM kathyhughes we don't throw stuff away....but maybe we should donate them to some other facilities
2014-03-27 06:14:36 PM nitaree Kathy...how does one specialize in memory care?
2014-03-27 06:14:49 PM olawaleajayi Yeah everyone in the building always called to ask if they can bring things down to the room and i'd scream NO!!!!!!!

2014-03-27 06:16:07 PM olawaleajayi Some got their training years ago!!! Probably need re-orientation
2014-03-27 06:16:39 PM kathyhughes We are talking about time management and teaching staff about Memory Care??
2014-03-27 06:16:45 PM nitaree We had aresident that took her pants off and smeared poop all over walls...the CNA's were laughing at her and broke my heart
2014-03-27 06:16:59 PM ssactivities ahhhtime management. I need alot of help with that!

2014-03-27 06:19:19 PM kathyhughes Hello Deanna
2014-03-27 06:19:29 PM nitaree Time consuming.......planning
2014-03-27 06:19:32 PM dbrewer Hi Im sorry im late
2014-03-27 06:19:32 PM olawaleajayi Mine would be doing assessments
2014-03-27 06:19:44 PM kathyhughes no problem
2014-03-27 06:19:52 PM kathyhughes the MDS?
2014-03-27 06:20:01 PM olawaleajayi MDS too
2014-03-27 06:20:02 PM kathyhughes yes that will take some time
2014-03-27 06:20:04 PM stacels709 My answer would be planning, trying to keep things fresh on the calendar.
2014-03-27 06:20:37 PM nitaree Fresh is good...but they dont like change too much...ha'
2014-03-27 06:20:51 PM kathyhughes and remember that the regulations state that the Activity Director can supervise the assessment process
2014-03-27 06:20:57 PM ssactivities I am the assessments...now we are paperless and trying to find all the areas and being chainwed to my desk.
2014-03-27 06:21:03 PM kathyhughes I had my staff do them
2014-03-27 06:21:24 PM stacels709 True, as long as I don't mess with bingo or happy hour. lol
2014-03-27 06:21:31 PM olawaleajayi Mine would never have, she hated everything about her job
2014-03-27 06:21:39 PM ssactivities some people aren't very good at writing the notes.
2014-03-27 06:21:45 PM nitaree Kathy.....help us..between "marketing" and actually doing activites
2014-03-27 06:21:55 PM stacels709 I have a lot less paperwork in ALF but my assistant does the initial assessment and I input it into our system.
2014-03-27 06:22:22 PM kathyhughes but also keep in mind that your staff will be qualified activity directors if they have worked for you for 2 years
2014-03-27 06:22:26 PM dbrewer So you dont have to have a nurse to do the assessment
2014-03-27 06:22:41 PM kathyhughes not the activities assessment....
2014-03-27 06:22:45 PM ssactivities why a nurse?
2014-03-27 06:22:47 PM olawaleajayi Am sure nurses wouldn't
2014-03-27 06:22:48 PM kathyhughes or the MDS

2014-03-27 06:23:09 PM jamesj Hi Kathy...sorry for my tardiness.
2014-03-27 06:23:18 PM kathyhughes No problem
2014-03-27 06:23:32 PM olawaleajayi I do the initial, quarterly, yearly AND the MDS while all my assistant wants to do is play bingo
2014-03-27 06:23:51 PM bdappert sorry my computer died and i had to discreetly find an outlet to plug into and thats no easy to do in a sanctuary!
2014-03-27 06:24:07 PM kathyhughes If you read through the regs and the MDS manual anyone can do the assessments
2014-03-27 06:24:07 PM bdappert what did I miss?
2014-03-27 06:24:16 PM kathyhughes LOL Brandy!
2014-03-27 06:24:46 PM kathyhughes Nothing except getting folks to think about saving time by delegating some of the paperwork
2014-03-27 06:24:49 PM ssactivities I am learning the point click care system now for paperless but I'll train my staff later
2014-03-27 06:24:50 PM olawaleajayi Yes but the nurses would tell you they have more "important" things to do
2014-03-27 06:25:17 PM kathyhughes the nurses would never do the activities assessments.
2014-03-27 06:25:20 PM ssactivities why are nurses involved?
2014-03-27 06:25:21 PM olawaleajayi Point click can be fun
2014-03-27 06:25:29 PM ssactivities ugh!
2014-03-27 06:25:37 PM olawaleajayi lol
2014-03-27 06:25:48 PM kathyhughes I am sure that in a year you will be so used to it
2014-03-27 06:25:51 PM nitaree kathy....we need MRE resprect.....for what wedo do
2014-03-27 06:25:58 PM ssactivities thought I'd like it better but I kinda miss having the file to write a note anywhere
2014-03-27 06:26:00 PM kathyhughes I know Anita
2014-03-27 06:26:08 PM nitaree how
2014-03-27 06:26:19 PM olawaleajayi Yeah makes sense
2014-03-27 06:26:33 PM ssactivities change is hard sometimes!
2014-03-27 06:26:39 PM nitaree The CCEO acknowledged bushrugged
2014-03-27 06:26:59 PM olawaleajayi It is...especially if it's a lot you have to upload on point click
2014-03-27 06:27:03 PM kathyhughes Anita we are talking about time management...I think that we have talked about getting respect the past couple of weeks
2014-03-27 06:27:18 PM bdappert at the hospital I work at we are all computerized. scince the activities program is new. im currently working on building an assessment or intervention that can be done for activities
2014-03-27 06:27:18 PM nitaree Today would be nice
2014-03-27 06:27:35 PM bdappert this isn't near as easy as I thought it would be!
2014-03-27 06:27:50 PM nitaree Easy...never
2014-03-27 06:27:58 PM olawaleajayi Yeah it takes time
2014-03-27 06:28:04 PM kathyhughes I guess that to use our time wisely we might have to invest time in teaching our staff that the paperwork is all part of the job
2014-03-27 06:28:23 PM nitaree Howdo you TEAC
2014-03-27 06:28:31 PM olawaleajayi Yes Kathy but sometimes it's like pulling a teeth
2014-03-27 06:28:32 PM ssactivities how do you schedule time for paperwork?
2014-03-27 06:28:32 PM kathyhughes I liked to think about it as investing my time so that you can have more later
2014-03-27 06:28:34 PM nitaree TEACH
2014-03-27 06:28:45 PM stacels709 I would just like to find time to actually train my assistant on what I do in case I have to take leave, etc...I'm slowly but surely teaching her things a little at a time.
2014-03-27 06:28:47 PM kathyhughes It is change is hard all the way around
2014-03-27 06:29:00 PM ssactivities my staff would do it but finding time is difficult
2014-03-27 06:29:04 PM kathyhughes It takes one step at a time
2014-03-27 06:29:10 PM stacels709 I just taught her how to bill for trips...after almost 2 years. lol
2014-03-27 06:29:10 PM olawaleajayi I do some of mine during my lunch break which SUCKS
2014-03-27 06:29:18 PM nitaree We are are the future....they need us
2014-03-27 06:29:21 PM kathyhughes you have to look at the Activity Trap and find some time
2014-03-27 06:30:08 PM ssactivities seems like residents need us 1:1 time, organizing, planning, prepping, indiv programs
2014-03-27 06:30:19 PM kathyhughes I would bet that if you took 10 minutes a day and taught the staff how to do some of the paperwork in a month they could do it all on their own
2014-03-27 06:30:28 PM ssactivities plus documenting what they all did
2014-03-27 06:30:33 PM kathyhughes the residents will always need is
2014-03-27 06:30:36 PM nitaree for sure
