2015-01-27 07:17:34 PM mpopielarz if you are sad that a resident passed, you aren't doing your job. Just remember our job is to make whatever time any of our residents have left the best it could be! That's my motivation!

2015-01-27 07:17:46 PM carmenc909 janiew, it's ok .. I would cry too.

2015-01-27 07:18:36 PM feliciap i think its normal and it all depends how close you are to that resident
2015-01-27 07:18:39 PM amainez yes its very depressing and then the family gets there and everyone then starts crying.

2015-01-27 07:18:42 PM cglvision Someone passing is sad.
2015-01-27 07:18:45 PM jcarey i thinks that was a typo arlene
2015-01-27 07:19:01 PM kathyhughes I scheduled 1-1 activities daily
2015-01-27 07:19:01 PM jennifercummings81 I try not to get too attached...
2015-01-27 07:19:05 PM mpopielarz yes it was, i'm sorry
2015-01-27 07:19:07 PM cglvision Yes, mpopielarz, I want to know too
2015-01-27 07:19:11 PM kathyhughes at least 3 hours a day per staff
2015-01-27 07:19:11 PM beccalyn there is myself, and i have 6 activity aides who all work different schedules
2015-01-27 07:19:20 PM lexa29 we do 1:1 with most are residents i love seeing them light up when you walk in their room it makes me feel good
2015-01-27 07:19:21 PM kathyhughes and some took only minutes
2015-01-27 07:19:26 PM marym154 its hard not to get attached
2015-01-27 07:19:27 PM janiew Well if they are super difficult I do not get attached to them, but he was a sweetheart ;)
2015-01-27 07:19:34 PM pauline Janiew, It is a part of the buisness when someone dies. But it is also normal to feel sad. Once you start feeling numb to the losses it's time to consider workingn in another field. We can't support those we care for without careing.
2015-01-27 07:19:34 PM karri2 that is a good idea
2015-01-27 07:19:36 PM akopechek I find 1:1 hard to fit in as well.
2015-01-27 07:19:36 PM chloer1 i love all my people
2015-01-27 07:19:43 PM smrich11 2 hours a day?
2015-01-27 07:19:44 PM dnightchild the smallest thing can be a 1-1 for a resident and you'll be doing it and not even know it
2015-01-27 07:19:51 PM bbowman how do you determine time needed for 1-1 visits?
2015-01-27 07:19:52 PM salitadean me too i love me people also
2015-01-27 07:19:56 PM arlene i do too
2015-01-27 07:19:57 PM janiew Thanks, Pauline, that's helpful to know!
2015-01-27 07:19:58 PM akopechek How do you quantify a 1:1 as some residents have shorter attention spans than others?
2015-01-27 07:19:59 PM chloer1 there great
2015-01-27 07:20:00 PM jennifercummings81 2 hours a day for what?
2015-01-27 07:20:03 PM jmosley4 me too
2015-01-27 07:20:06 PM jcarey i just had to let one of my activity assistance go...im deffintly worried about being able to get all the 1:1 done and run activity groups
2015-01-27 07:20:07 PM feliciap sometimes you can bring them things of interest they like and move on to someone else because theyd rather be alone with a book or magazine..is that okay?
2015-01-27 07:20:13 PM kathyhughes it depends on the resident
2015-01-27 07:20:22 PM carmenc909 I love my people so much. Today I sat and held hands with one of my gentlemen who was sad. Just needed a touch.
2015-01-27 07:20:23 PM smrich11 Oops...i meant to say 3 hours for 1:1?
2015-01-27 07:20:26 PM kathyhughes I had a guy who loved his TV
2015-01-27 07:20:27 PM arlene i feel like I spend more hours with them than my own family (kids)
2015-01-27 07:20:27 PM vickey i was told dont get attached but how can you not, as i walk down the corridor i say hello to each and everyone as i call them by name
2015-01-27 07:20:31 PM beccalyn i require them to spend at least 10 minutes in a 1:1 but i encourage them to really engage with the resident so if that means they are in there for an hour then so be it!
2015-01-27 07:20:33 PM phowell some residents only have us
2015-01-27 07:20:37 PM kathyhughes he never came out of his room
2015-01-27 07:20:39 PM beccalyn what ever the residents need
2015-01-27 07:20:44 PM lindseyc5812 so how does it work for other people your an ad and have your own activities staff??
2015-01-27 07:20:46 PM karri2 well it's just me and i try to do it all

2015-01-27 07:20:51 PM melodyc I have been visiting 1:1 with one of my ladies that in the past used to be a social person but since her husband passed and she came into our nursing home has not came to any of our group activities (past 7 months)...until today :) I got her to come to watch a movie and she said she had a great time...felt like a huge success!
2015-01-27 07:20:53 PM beccalyn i have a few residents like that kathy
2015-01-27 07:20:58 PM pauline 1:1 are often the most spontaneous times of the job. I often look back on my day and realiize how many valuable moments I have engaged in that were not planned
2015-01-27 07:21:05 PM chloer1 the residents love vistors
2015-01-27 07:21:07 PM kathyhughes So every morning I had the receptionist enlarge the TV schedule from the newspaper
2015-01-27 07:21:12 PM jmosley4 its ok if he is doing what he like

2015-01-27 07:21:48 PM jennifercummings81 I speak to each of mine by name too...but they stay such a short time...
2015-01-27 07:21:52 PM kathyhughes staffing depends on the facility and its size
2015-01-27 07:21:56 PM karri2 well my residents watch tv in the diner and see the news

2015-01-27 07:22:53 PM smrich11 So as directors, are we really supposed to have a lot of time to be on the units?
2015-01-27 07:22:54 PM cglvision What are state regulations for staffing? and when you dropped off the TV schedule, that little visit counted as a 1:1?
