2015-08-25 06:31:32 PM stacey1 I don't know when our survey will be. I am super nervous bc i wasn't over the AD last time. I think all my stuff is in order. BUT it still makes me so nervous.
2015-08-25 06:31:34 PM kathyhughes We had a list of things that we wanted
2015-08-25 06:31:35 PM vdarmstrong1 left the chat room

2015-08-25 06:32:03 PM bradc pets are the best
2015-08-25 06:32:10 PM kathyhughes Everyone....churches, schools, volunteer groups,
2015-08-25 06:32:13 PM aliciag they didnt ask me for anything except my calanders and the last 3 resident council minutes
2015-08-25 06:32:15 PM tiffany1 I send out a wish list to the family members of stuff that i could use
2015-08-25 06:32:23 PM bradc so many residents at our facility love dogs and just have such a reaction to them
2015-08-25 06:32:29 PM jennide221 thats what they usually ask for alicia
2015-08-25 06:32:32 PM janfred73 Crystal, can you put a "things needed" column in the newsletter?
2015-08-25 06:32:42 PM cristinadodson the key to a good survey is to do the same all year round...and train as if everyday was a state survey then the staff should have no problem and it is business as usually
2015-08-25 06:32:57 PM jennide221 they also will probably ask you to get together a resident council meeting so they can interview the residents
2015-08-25 06:32:57 PM aliciag the last time tey asked for the individual participation records
2015-08-25 06:32:59 PM tracyg Residents family and freinds are alwawys giving us things. We also work with a quilting club and knitting club for blankets for residents for christmas. Schools are good too
2015-08-25 06:33:00 PM aliciag they
2015-08-25 06:33:02 PM cristinadodson usual
2015-08-25 06:33:05 PM ashley17 our facility dog only has three legs
2015-08-25 06:33:10 PM crystalbailey4 i cant get anyone to donate anything. we dont have a newsletter
2015-08-25 06:33:11 PM asullins Schools are great to contact for entertainment. We have had groups come in and play the piano and we have had their choirs come in and perform during meal times.
2015-08-25 06:33:20 PM asullins and they were free!
2015-08-25 06:33:21 PM kmatthews311 is anyone doing a fall festivial?

2015-08-25 06:33:27 PM judylynnmorgan so far they havent asked me for nothing
2015-08-25 06:33:29 PM kathyhughes What are you looking for Crystal?
2015-08-25 06:33:29 PM tiffany1 put a flyer in the statements
2015-08-25 06:33:30 PM kimberly1 enter the chat room
2015-08-25 06:33:31 PM jennide221 alicia, it just depends on if they suspect anything...they usually go into it knowing stuff about your facility already and maybe even having complaints they want to check up on
2015-08-25 06:33:40 PM vdarmstrong1 enter the chat room
2015-08-25 06:33:43 PM aliciag thye asked me to gather about 6 residents so they could talk to them, they didnt have any complaints on activities (and i got to pick the rsidents)
2015-08-25 06:34:03 PM bradc the facility i had my event with offers a space to a barbershop quartet and they use it as their practice space
2015-08-25 06:34:16 PM crystalbailey4 decorations, beads, anything. the last director loaded her car and took everything
2015-08-25 06:34:17 PM roses I just booked transportation for a leaf tour this Fall.
2015-08-25 06:34:20 PM kimberly1 Good evening
2015-08-25 06:34:20 PM bradc so the residents get to watch them practice and it doesnt cost the facility anything
2015-08-25 06:34:22 PM melissagp They asked me to gather Resident Council for a meeting
2015-08-25 06:34:26 PM bradc such a smart idea
2015-08-25 06:34:28 PM tracyg Crystal, that is fantastic!!! a three legged dog.
2015-08-25 06:34:32 PM kimberly1 sorry i am late

2015-08-25 06:34:37 PM naomid flyers at starbucks maybe? I needed some different coffe flavors and got some donated for taste testing
2015-08-25 06:34:41 PM vdarmstrong1 Janfred73 Great idea I hadn't thought use my newsletter that way
2015-08-25 06:34:43 PM kathyhughes In order to get stuff you have to be specific
2015-08-25 06:34:48 PM stacey1 I passed my MOCK survey that our Corporate comes in and does. I wasn't missing anything. So i feel like it would be worse with corporate than state because they want to make sure you have everything in order fo state.
2015-08-25 06:34:53 PM kimberly1 What is the topic
2015-08-25 06:35:03 PM kathyhughes we also had the list for all the groups that came in during the holidays
2015-08-25 06:35:06 PM vdarmstrong1 left the chat room
2015-08-25 06:35:09 PM kathyhughes and gave them the list

2015-08-25 06:36:10 PM stacey1 I add a Needed list in our newsletter but nobody brings anything. I don't even think they read it except the residents and a few family memebers
2015-08-25 06:36:10 PM roses I like the idea of a Mock survey.
2015-08-25 06:36:14 PM stacey1 members*
2015-08-25 06:36:20 PM melissagp My Family Council is working on garage sale.

2015-08-25 06:38:31 PM vdarmstrong1 left the chat room
2015-08-25 06:38:43 PM stacey1 Wouldn't FB violate HIPPA in some way?
2015-08-25 06:38:48 PM kathyhughes I only concentrated on the residents without family
2015-08-25 06:38:52 PM vdarmstrong1 enter the chat room
2015-08-25 06:38:56 PM sherrij Our web page is terrible.
2015-08-25 06:38:56 PM asullins Some of our facilities have a FB page
2015-08-25 06:38:59 PM judylynnmorgan we have facebook
2015-08-25 06:39:02 PM jennide221 i use facebook to interact and network with other activity professionals, but we don't use it specifically for the facility
2015-08-25 06:39:10 PM kathyhughes Not if you use it only for telling people what you are doing
2015-08-25 06:39:12 PM janfred73 we have a corporate fb
2015-08-25 06:39:28 PM kathyhughes and you can have it a closed group for your families
2015-08-25 06:39:31 PM naomid we have face book all members are picture release and we only use first names if we ever use names
2015-08-25 06:39:32 PM ambercovey we have a fb page but nothing is on it
2015-08-25 06:39:52 PM ambercovey and we are not allowed to say where we work on any social media
2015-08-25 06:40:03 PM kathyhughes you can get the residents to sign a release and I would show them the Facebook page
2015-08-25 06:40:04 PM kmatthews311 we dont were very old school i dont think we even have a website
2015-08-25 06:40:04 PM jennide221 right....we are not allowed to say where we work on social media
2015-08-25 06:40:07 PM kathyhughes so they knew
2015-08-25 06:40:08 PM tracyg some of our employee made pages and we are trying to get them removed. not appropriate all the time
2015-08-25 06:40:14 PM vdarmstrong1 left the chat room
2015-08-25 06:40:17 PM stacey1 A few of ours have their own fb lol
2015-08-25 06:40:31 PM kmatthews311 so does mine stacey1
2015-08-25 06:40:36 PM kathyhughes I know that residents would have their own pages
2015-08-25 06:40:40 PM vdarmstrong1 enter the chat room
2015-08-25 06:40:45 PM kathyhughes and I bet that they enjoy them
2015-08-25 06:40:46 PM asullins Ya my residents have their own FB!
2015-08-25 06:40:50 PM jennide221 some residents have fb...that should be okay
2015-08-25 06:41:09 PM stacey1 I think it's funny that they do! It makes me giggle. I love it!
2015-08-25 06:41:10 PM kathyhughes its fine
2015-08-25 06:41:14 PM ashley17 we have a facebook page but there is not much on it at all
2015-08-25 06:41:15 PM kmatthews311 mine show me cooking ideas lol
2015-08-25 06:41:25 PM kmatthews311 they get from fb lol
2015-08-25 06:41:34 PM roses I love it that some of your residents have their own page. It's a nice way to get access to other family members (especially the younger ones) and keep up with what they are doing. They can also check on you.
2015-08-25 06:41:42 PM kathyhughes I would take pictures of the decorations and the activities without the residents

2015-08-25 06:42:18 PM stacey1 I am going to ask my ED too. lol
2015-08-25 06:42:20 PM kathyhughes It is a good marketing tool
2015-08-25 06:42:28 PM kathyhughes all they can say is no
2015-08-25 06:42:31 PM jennide221 our company does not like the internet at all...you can't even google the company
2015-08-25 06:42:34 PM vdarmstrong1 enter the chat room
2015-08-25 06:42:42 PM sdoyle I want to start a photo album of the parties we have so we can look back at them or show them to visitors
2015-08-25 06:42:53 PM christiking yes its defiantly a good marketing tool, but they won't let us have one..
2015-08-25 06:42:53 PM melsue93 i try to not put pictures up just to avoid the situation in and of itself
2015-08-25 06:42:58 PM melissagp Wow jenni thats harsh
2015-08-25 06:43:00 PM kathyhughes thats too bad, we got a lot of rehab residents using social media
2015-08-25 06:43:00 PM sdoyle since I cannot FB
2015-08-25 06:43:08 PM roses Coorporate can't tell residents that they can't have a Facebook page.
2015-08-25 06:43:09 PM kathyhughes and that was a long time ago
2015-08-25 06:43:20 PM sdoyle No residents, just decorations and such
2015-08-25 06:43:25 PM tracyg Kathy-what would you do if emps have made an FB page of the facility that isn't "authorized" with not such great stuff on it. mostly cna's acting goofy and using poor language.
2015-08-25 06:43:26 PM naomid sdoyle , I have the members put a collage together of each event and hang it by the front door
2015-08-25 06:43:28 PM kathyhughes So much for person centered activities
2015-08-25 06:43:39 PM stacey1 No not them telling residents. We are meaning FB for our facility
2015-08-25 06:43:41 PM jennide221 no, they don't tell them they can't have a fb page...they just don't have any info about the company online thats all
2015-08-25 06:43:51 PM kathyhughes I would let the ADM worry about that
2015-08-25 06:44:02 PM vdarmstrong1 left the chat room
2015-08-25 06:44:03 PM melsue93 idt we have a fb page for our facility
2015-08-25 06:44:05 PM kathyhughes it is after all freedom of speech
2015-08-25 06:44:05 PM tracyg thanks much. not worrying too much
2015-08-25 06:44:08 PM sdoyle collages are a wonderful idea :)
2015-08-25 06:44:10 PM jennide221 rts can do what they want
2015-08-25 06:44:15 PM judylynnmorgan love the idea of the residents getting to see the fb paige thanks for the great idea
2015-08-25 06:44:28 PM vdarmstrong1 enter the chat room
2015-08-25 06:44:40 PM kathyhughes and I would bet that families would love that avenue of interaction
2015-08-25 06:44:42 PM janfred73 I only have a few residents that use the internet, and we mostly set them up with email with family members, but I may try fb with them
2015-08-25 06:44:43 PM melissagp I think Facebook could be a great marketing tool too.
2015-08-25 06:44:44 PM stacey1 My residents enjoylooking on pinterest with me. It's an activity that i use. lol
2015-08-25 06:44:51 PM aliciag i think it would be a good tool for the community to know whats going on at the facility
2015-08-25 06:44:52 PM cristinadodson why would you want to trash your employment on fb that doesnt say much for that person
2015-08-25 06:45:04 PM sdoyle Pintrest is a real blessing!
2015-08-25 06:45:05 PM jennide221 usually our rts just want to play games on the computer
2015-08-25 06:45:08 PM melsue93 maybe sending family emails with pictures would be nice for the families it's just very time consuming
2015-08-25 06:45:19 PM kathyhughes I don't think that facilities are thinking that far ahead
2015-08-25 06:45:19 PM sdoyle I get a lot of party, craft and food ideas there
2015-08-25 06:45:20 PM asullins ya i have a resident who will look up craft ideas for our craft groups on Pinterest.
2015-08-25 06:45:30 PM kimberly1 I think any media is good for communication for the residents.
2015-08-25 06:45:35 PM primus3 most of our rehab res bring in their own. They just want the WiFi
2015-08-25 06:45:44 PM kathyhughes and we would Skype the residents for their families
2015-08-25 06:45:45 PM ashley17 pinterest is the best for cooking and crafts
2015-08-25 06:45:45 PM oliviad yes, we post daily activities and pictures.
2015-08-25 06:45:50 PM tracyg We have been sticking to mailing letters and pictures to family at the res request
2015-08-25 06:45:51 PM vdarmstrong1 left the chat room
2015-08-25 06:45:55 PM primus3 Skype is a goo didea
2015-08-25 06:46:00 PM janfred73 Have any of you had the troops as penpals with the residents?
2015-08-25 06:46:00 PM primus3 good idea
2015-08-25 06:46:05 PM crystalbailey4 yes we have had a couple talking bout the wifi
2015-08-25 06:46:16 PM vdarmstrong1 enter the chat room
2015-08-25 06:46:19 PM judylynnmorgan good idea
2015-08-25 06:46:20 PM jennide221 tracy thats a good idea...many of the rts families and the rts themselves don't get to see the pictures aside from when they are posted on the bulletin board
2015-08-25 06:46:27 PM ashley17 we have a resident that skype with sister almost everynight
2015-08-25 06:46:28 PM primus3 we recently bought a hotspot for activities
2015-08-25 06:46:30 PM kathyhughes And I have had students Skype their interfacility events
2015-08-25 06:46:34 PM sdoyle no! but that's a realy cool idea, I think our residents would love to be penpals with the troops!
2015-08-25 06:46:36 PM primus3 goes on the leisure cart when we gp arpund
2015-08-25 06:46:40 PM primus3 around
2015-08-25 06:46:42 PM bradc we have more and more residents and rehab patients that bring their computers and use FB, skype etc
2015-08-25 06:46:44 PM primus3 geez cant type
2015-08-25 06:46:53 PM vdarmstrong1 My residents love to take pictures but I always get a model release
2015-08-25 06:47:02 PM janfred73 we sent a bunch of Christmas cards to a military base last year
2015-08-25 06:47:19 PM roses Our facility has WIFI but I haven't noticed anyone besides staff using it.
2015-08-25 06:47:21 PM sdoyle I'd like to have iPads for groups
2015-08-25 06:47:24 PM kathyhughes You can also set up a private Pinterest Board and then only families can access it with a password
2015-08-25 06:47:24 PM asullins I used to have computer lessons twice a month for residents who wanted to learn how to use it.
2015-08-25 06:47:26 PM melsue93 thats a good idea about the christmas cards
2015-08-25 06:47:28 PM tracyg we have an inner facility pen pal program
2015-08-25 06:47:37 PM jennide221 all rts sign a photo release upon admission at our center

2015-08-25 06:48:08 PM bradc @jennide thats a great idea, i have suggested that to my director
2015-08-25 06:48:17 PM crystalbailey4 my residents really don't like doing much because for years they have only been use to bingo, and church services. sometimes its aggravating trying to change things up

2015-08-25 06:48:23 PM kathyhughes You can upload pictures to the private board
2015-08-25 06:48:30 PM melissagp Do we have to worry about the pics of our interfacility event for the forum Kathy?
2015-08-25 06:48:34 PM stacey1 That's a goo idea.
2015-08-25 06:48:44 PM stacey1 good
2015-08-25 06:48:44 PM kathyhughes no Melissa
2015-08-25 06:48:46 PM aliciag def gonna see about the private board
2015-08-25 06:48:52 PM kmatthews311 me too
2015-08-25 06:48:54 PM jennide221 yeah but its really just for use around the facility....unless you specified otherwise...i think if we were going to do anything public with the photos, we'd have to have another release
2015-08-25 06:48:56 PM kathyhughes its a private board for the class
2015-08-25 06:48:58 PM bradc you can always take pics from behind, not show faces

2015-08-25 06:50:29 PM naomid My preacher cant come anymore and I need a new one how do I go about that...cold calls?
2015-08-25 06:50:29 PM jennide221 roses, i like to bring my phone out with me when i read the newspaper...sometimes a question comes up that i don't know the answer to so i google it for the rts. one time we looked up the dali lama because the rts were curious...they were fascinated with what you could find online
2015-08-25 06:50:30 PM ashley17 did any of you take your residents to the fair this year

2015-08-25 06:51:19 PM jennide221 we go to the fair every year.....sadly, we have no bus driver and the old company technically still owns our bus... :-(
2015-08-25 06:51:25 PM janfred73 I called local churches and I have a few that rotated. Some churches have more than one minister
2015-08-25 06:51:25 PM stacey1 A trunk or treat is where you decorate the trunk of you car and give out candy from what i understand. I've never been to it. This is my first year as an AD, and i don't have children so i never came back to check it out.
2015-08-25 06:51:31 PM judylynnmorgan left the chat room
2015-08-25 06:51:33 PM kathyhughes take pictures of the decorations and have staff pretend to be the residents
