2015-01-27 07:03:06 PM chloer1 yeah
2015-01-27 07:03:07 PM beccalyn we are starting a new way of doing 1:1 activities because unfortunately I am afraid that my staff aren't doing them the way that my residents deserve and need
2015-01-27 07:03:08 PM ssmyth i love talking about their families
2015-01-27 07:03:12 PM phowell a lot of the ladies love getting their nails done in bed
2015-01-27 07:03:14 PM kathyhughes remember that it is for the individual resident what you do for 1-1 activities
2015-01-27 07:03:19 PM arlene enter the chat room

2015-01-27 07:03:43 PM jcarey i agree with beccalyn...im worried my staff isnt making them meaningful
2015-01-27 07:03:47 PM vickey i have to see one resident she is on contact percaution so everything i use i throw out like the newspaper and magazines
2015-01-27 07:03:56 PM karri2 ok like go to the store with one
2015-01-27 07:04:02 PM ratna72 you can even play with clay on one to one cart
2015-01-27 07:04:05 PM kathyhughes so you have to get your staff together and educate the,
2015-01-27 07:04:14 PM kathyhughes them
2015-01-27 07:04:19 PM jcarey so what do you guys do for the nonresponsive residents rather that music, reading
2015-01-27 07:04:19 PM bbowman My staff do the same things with their 1-1 visits and I keep encouraging them to try new things
2015-01-27 07:04:25 PM amainez I have a patient in swing bed and he always likes for me to read everything to him. Newpaper, books, it dosent really matter.
2015-01-27 07:04:27 PM karri2 ok
2015-01-27 07:04:31 PM beccalyn I am making "1:1" bags of itmes that they can use during a 1:1 with cards, pussles, books, music, etc anything that they can do to interact
2015-01-27 07:04:34 PM adamreese drawing with shaving cream works for activity and ot
2015-01-27 07:04:43 PM ssmyth we make time everyday to at least have one conversation with each resident even if it is not an activity
2015-01-27 07:04:44 PM pam74 I have a great assistnce she love doing things with them
2015-01-27 07:04:51 PM monica70 I am a hospice cna I have a young lady that is activly passing. May I use lotion senerary as a 1-1
2015-01-27 07:04:53 PM jcarey in room manicures is always a good one too

2015-01-27 07:05:06 PM chloer1 yeah
2015-01-27 07:05:14 PM mpopielarz Hello Everyone
2015-01-27 07:05:17 PM beccalyn then they have to document what they did. the date, resident, where they were, how the res responded, what materials they used etc.

2015-01-27 07:06:17 PM beccalyn I also have divided the residents and assigned them to my staff so that they are personally responsible for that resident's one to ones and i have someone to hold accountable
2015-01-27 07:06:29 PM kathyhughes and you never ask if they like the lotion
2015-01-27 07:06:34 PM jennifercummings81 we make jewerly

2015-01-27 07:09:16 PM janiew Hello!
2015-01-27 07:09:18 PM kathyhughes Remember that smell also effects their meals
2015-01-27 07:09:18 PM ssmyth our ladies fight over our attention like kids

2015-01-27 07:09:51 PM janiew people who can't make it to group activities or refuse them or are unable to speak and participate need one on ones
2015-01-27 07:09:54 PM melodyc jcarey, for the ones that are non responsive try music. find out from their family what kind of music they enjoy the most
2015-01-27 07:10:00 PM ratna72 some people can be allergic to various lotions
2015-01-27 07:10:08 PM adamreese we discharge to nursing home when they get be 1:1

2015-01-27 07:10:43 PM jcarey i have put a few cd players in their rooms for music...im just wondering documentation wise what should be documented for that
2015-01-27 07:10:51 PM marym154 am i in the right place
2015-01-27 07:10:53 PM beccalyn at my facility we do them 3 times a week for all of our dememtia residents, other than that if they aren't dont participate in group activities, or tend to just stay in their rooms. if they are social within the facility with peers and staff members i dont worry as much
2015-01-27 07:10:55 PM kathyhughes you have to find out what the resident likes
2015-01-27 07:10:57 PM monica70 I sing to her
2015-01-27 07:11:03 PM arlene or just go in there and watch their favorite movies or old tv shows

2015-01-27 07:11:07 PM amainez music is always a good sugestion.
2015-01-27 07:11:09 PM marshaquarles sweet

2015-01-27 07:11:22 PM karri2 alot of mine like music
2015-01-27 07:11:27 PM beccalyn Jcarey i would document that as an idependant activity
2015-01-27 07:11:30 PM monica70 I knew her before she became unresponsive
2015-01-27 07:11:31 PM arlene like one of my femake residents she like to watch golden girls which I also enjoy

2015-01-27 07:12:25 PM karri2 we also do 1-1 reading to them
2015-01-27 07:12:28 PM mpopielarz We make a chart to ensure that all those who are care planned for 1:1 get them. We make a calendar and assign a visit with an employee so if it isn't done we know right away and can hold them accountable. This has been effective and eases stree about state.
2015-01-27 07:12:30 PM jmosley4 we have a live DJ
