2015-11-19 07:07:11 PM 241130 I am unhappy with the document we currently use to track participation. Any thoughts or ideas?
2015-11-19 07:07:33 PM pec1963 we are going to have a hershy kiss relay and make kiss christmas trees
2015-11-19 07:07:34 PM kathyhughes The CNA's are not responsible for motivating residents to attend activities
2015-11-19 07:07:39 PM luispaschoa I have a format Sarah
2015-11-19 07:07:45 PM ambercovey 241130- there are some really good templates for that online too
2015-11-19 07:07:46 PM 241130 I would appreciate the sharing
2015-11-19 07:07:53 PM 241130 Amber- where at?
2015-11-19 07:08:05 PM luispaschoa But the CNA's, some of them help me there
2015-11-19 07:08:13 PM ambercovey honestly i just googled it
2015-11-19 07:08:21 PM kathyhughes And I did an unconventional way of attendance so
2015-11-19 07:08:21 PM ambercovey let me see if i can google it again and send it to you
2015-11-19 07:08:23 PM 241130 oh ok. Thank you
2015-11-19 07:08:23 PM barbb sarah I use an exel spread sheet w/ residents names down 1st column & each activity in the rest, easy to check off who attends so documentation is easier later (I'll never remember everybody)
2015-11-19 07:08:24 PM pec1963 my CNA's are awesome
2015-11-19 07:08:29 PM 241130 :)
2015-11-19 07:08:40 PM sandyd We had our state survey from Monday through today and we did pretty dog gone good, We are happy!:D
2015-11-19 07:08:51 PM luispaschoa My CNA's too pec
2015-11-19 07:08:51 PM barbb congrats sandy!
2015-11-19 07:08:57 PM kathyhughes It is our job to motivate the residents
2015-11-19 07:08:58 PM 241130 Thank you Barb!
2015-11-19 07:09:00 PM pec1963 way to go
2015-11-19 07:09:08 PM luispaschoa True
2015-11-19 07:09:19 PM sandyd Thanks!
2015-11-19 07:09:23 PM pec1963 its all in the approach
2015-11-19 07:09:28 PM luispaschoa But someone inspired can help sometime
2015-11-19 07:09:45 PM luispaschoa Our minds are AD's
2015-11-19 07:09:50 PM kathyhughes so the residents that want to go to the activity will be there and the ones that are not interested can enjoy their rooms
2015-11-19 07:10:16 PM barbb so true kathy, so true
2015-11-19 07:10:23 PM luispaschoa True. However, it depends the way we approach, right?
2015-11-19 07:10:35 PM kathyhughes I had residents sign in to their activities
2015-11-19 07:10:49 PM 241130 I think its about the relationship that we develop with our residents. its about being genuine and gaining trust
2015-11-19 07:10:50 PM luispaschoa Great
2015-11-19 07:10:53 PM cnorstedt Do we get credit for these chats? I missed scheduled ones.
2015-11-19 07:10:53 PM pec1963 my residents always say What are you planning today We never know what you are going to do but we know it will be fun
2015-11-19 07:11:06 PM cgbrown1977 It can depend how we approach...but some just prefer not to go to group activities
2015-11-19 07:11:12 PM luispaschoa That's true Sarah
2015-11-19 07:11:13 PM kathyhughes The key phrase there Luis is How we apporach the resident
2015-11-19 07:11:40 PM cynthia23 @pec1963 you dont have calender
2015-11-19 07:11:40 PM kathyhughes and it's up to activities to make sure that the resident knows that there is something going on that they are interested in
2015-11-19 07:11:44 PM luispaschoa Being courteous and compassioned
2015-11-19 07:11:59 PM barbb our residents are quite vocal & love seeing their input reflected in our calendar
2015-11-19 07:12:01 PM pec1963 yes it is activites job

2015-11-19 07:20:30 PM sherrij I am going to do one day of Hannakah and one day of Kwanza.
2015-11-19 07:20:36 PM kathyhughes I would ask the residents
2015-11-19 07:20:45 PM barbb I acknowledge all religious days cg, if no one's interested we move on but I've always gotten comments & questions
2015-11-19 07:20:48 PM 241130 The Jewish new year is actually at a different time and date but as the tradition goes for the majority- most jewish folks celebrate the new year as anyone else would. Hanukkah is different however
2015-11-19 07:20:48 PM pec1963 I would ask the resident
2015-11-19 07:21:06 PM sherrij You can buy fish in a jar and special wine that is Jewish.0..........
2015-11-19 07:21:08 PM luispaschoa Bring the jewish to play some games like circuit of games
2015-11-19 07:21:15 PM 241130 There are traditions that you would experience and learn about by reaching out to a local rabbi
2015-11-19 07:21:22 PM 241130 they would come and do a program with that resident
2015-11-19 07:21:29 PM cgbrown1977 He says he isn't a practicing Jew, however he goes to things with his family
2015-11-19 07:21:42 PM 241130 I would ask him about his traditions then
2015-11-19 07:21:55 PM luispaschoa Even better cg
2015-11-19 07:21:57 PM 241130 we have a high jewish population in my community so this was learning programming all over for me in the beginning
2015-11-19 07:22:03 PM pec1963 maybe there is a tradition he would like to share or do
2015-11-19 07:22:14 PM kathyhughes New year for Jewish residents is usually in Sept
2015-11-19 07:22:34 PM luispaschoa Good point by 241130...bring him to join the group

2015-11-19 07:27:22 PM kathyhughes Actiually the residents had no idea
2015-11-19 07:27:34 PM kathyhughes so the staff was into it more than the residents

2015-11-19 07:27:52 PM kathyhughes but we had the Kinara next to the Menorah
2015-11-19 07:28:15 PM kathyhughes The ideas and themes are listed on the Kawannza websites

2015-11-19 07:46:19 PM kathyhughes I would print off the trivia for "A Christmas Story" and give it to the residents for Christmas Day
2015-11-19 07:46:35 PM luispaschoa Good idea Kathy
2015-11-19 07:46:55 PM kathyhughes They would watch the movie and then turn in their Trivia Sheets the next day for a fabulous prize

2015-11-19 07:48:56 PM 241130 It should be about engagement
2015-11-19 07:49:02 PM kathyhughes But there are so many different ones!
2015-11-19 07:49:08 PM 241130 Meaningful engagement
2015-11-19 07:49:21 PM cgbrown1977 My newest form of entertainment...and I know you aren't a huge fan of intergenerational activities Kathy.....but My daughter in law homeschools and she brings the kids in along with 6 other moms.
2015-11-19 07:49:24 PM luispaschoa Most of my residents cannot name that tune. I have been working on it
2015-11-19 07:49:50 PM kathyhughes I think that is great Chris
2015-11-19 07:50:00 PM kathyhughes I loved Homeschoolers!
2015-11-19 07:50:22 PM cgbrown1977 They will be in to spend the morning on Dec 4th... doing jingle bell stretch class, then frosting cookies, hanging candy canes on our trees and singing carols
2015-11-19 07:50:26 PM kathyhughes We did Name that Tune with all sorts of different ways
2015-11-19 07:50:30 PM kathyhughes and the loved it
2015-11-19 07:50:40 PM luispaschoa Tell me some please

2015-11-19 07:51:28 PM sandyd The kids are always a hit!
2015-11-19 07:51:32 PM pec1963 Name that tune is great to play with bingo
2015-11-19 07:51:41 PM kathyhughes WEll we would place items on a table in front of the residents that had something to do with each song....that they knew and they would have to pick the item that matched the sone
2015-11-19 07:51:43 PM kathyhughes song
2015-11-19 07:51:58 PM cgbrown1977 That sounds fun!
2015-11-19 07:52:01 PM luispaschoa Tks Kathy
2015-11-19 07:52:05 PM jamie I ordered a bingo game where you have to name a tune and get a bingo that way
2015-11-19 07:52:16 PM ambercovey sounds real fun!
2015-11-19 07:52:19 PM pec1963 exactly right
2015-11-19 07:52:42 PM pec1963 rainbow bingo is also fun
2015-11-19 07:52:43 PM kathyhughes We had a player piano and would get songs that they knew and would play a couple of notes...if they were still stuck we would continue
2015-11-19 07:52:50 PM cgbrown1977 That sounds like a fun game for memory care
2015-11-19 07:53:01 PM kathyhughes and we used CD's and of course tapes
2015-11-19 07:53:24 PM tinab I use a game called Song Burst (50s and 60s) for my version of name that tune
2015-11-19 07:53:25 PM kathyhughes but they were all songs from when the residents were in their 20's
2015-11-19 07:53:44 PM luispaschoa I mostly play live guitar and ask them. Even though they sing-a-long they cannot remember
2015-11-19 07:53:49 PM pec1963 with encouragement we can get residents to ply
2015-11-19 07:53:51 PM tinab I like your idea kathy

2015-11-19 07:55:30 PM kathyhughes the younger residents did well with 50's
2015-11-19 07:55:30 PM barbb you wouldn't believe the variety of requests at our friday dance parties because our residents are in their 20's-90's
