2015-01-06 07:37:59 PM patlec Section B & D but we need to trigger a caa's
2015-01-06 07:38:06 PM suzieb no she thinks that when the residents condition progresses to hospice then 1:1 should be initiated. Sometimes you just have to care plan if they are bedbound or physically just cant get out of the room. We have a resident now who is agoraphobic so i take her romance novels puzzles and magazines.
2015-01-06 07:38:06 PM jcarey what is point click care?

2015-01-06 07:39:04 PM katew Thanks Kathy, I am curious how much time weekly a Recreation Director spends directly providing activities versus paperwork and meetings- 20 hours out of 40? Is there an expectation.

2015-01-06 07:39:13 PM jmosley4 we my boss left last year the state came for our annual

2015-01-06 07:43:36 PM kristenw if you want to be a director, you won't have that time with residents. think about what you really like to do
2015-01-06 07:43:44 PM alyssa22 i do my own bulletin boards also
2015-01-06 07:43:56 PM ratna72 it seems i am on duty 24/7

2015-01-06 07:44:07 PM amainez lol i guess all the old people like to sleep a little more. My parents are elderlies and are starting to sleep more and more.
2015-01-06 07:44:09 PM ileanaa same, I do all bulleting boards in the facility
2015-01-06 07:44:14 PM sbrooks i am a new director and I have VERY little time for residents - I MISS THEM
2015-01-06 07:44:19 PM ratna72 but god is great and he is my angel.
2015-01-06 07:44:19 PM chloer1 i love what i do and i want to do more for them
2015-01-06 07:44:25 PM jmosley4 it is a lot of paper work
2015-01-06 07:44:32 PM phowell i want the education but i dont want to be a director
2015-01-06 07:44:32 PM alyssa22 i always make time to visit with my resident if not they think i left them and that shows how much you are an aspect in their lives
2015-01-06 07:44:33 PM suzieb morning is the best because I think most of mine are so much more alert. I get the assessments done and then input them later in the day. You can walk away from the monitor if you need your resident fix plus then you can watch how your staff is interacting with them to see if you need to do any education or inservice with them

2015-01-06 07:51:42 PM smrich11 Have you put your foot down dnightchild? I had to when I was in corporate ALF. It was the only way I could stand it.

2015-01-06 07:51:56 PM katew I think it is important for the Activity Director to be providing direct programming. One, it is what drew them to the field and I what creates excitement about the job. Two, it is how you create new programs/grow the program and really understand who the residents are. What are y'all's thoughts?
2015-01-06 07:52:00 PM sbrooks that was suzieb

2015-01-06 07:53:44 PM suzieb we usually do 20 minutes because our corporate guidelines state it that way. I have volunteers that do more than what is care planned and most of the ones on the 1:1 list do come to some group activities
