2015-11-30 06:57:27 PM edrar enter the chat room
2015-11-30 06:58:10 PM edrar i'm here.
2015-11-30 06:58:16 PM susieq4220 Hopefully Edra will be checking in... I'm in MEPAP
2015-11-30 06:58:23 PM susieq4220 Yeah!!!!
2015-11-30 06:58:29 PM edrar Edra is here
2015-11-30 06:59:01 PM susieq4220 Cool beans, maybe we can have a few more join us, but whatever. It's good to talk quietly about how we are progressing in this program
2015-11-30 06:59:18 PM susieq4220 How old are you, Edra and where do you live?
2015-11-30 06:59:51 PM edrar I am 60, 61 in about 22 more days. I am from Ohio.
2015-11-30 06:59:58 PM edrar how about you?
2015-11-30 07:00:13 PM susieq4220 Wow... we are like sisters. I just turned 60 in October
2015-11-30 07:00:26 PM susieq4220 and live in Delaware.
2015-11-30 07:00:27 PM nancyzmc enter the chat room
2015-11-30 07:00:30 PM edrar oh, that is funny. I thought maybe I
2015-11-30 07:00:41 PM edrar would be the oldest here. LOL
2015-11-30 07:00:45 PM nancyzmc left the chat room
2015-11-30 07:00:47 PM susieq4220 How long have you worked in LTC or Assisted
2015-11-30 07:00:59 PM nancyzmc enter the chat room
2015-11-30 07:01:07 PM edrar I was here a year in August. One fast year.
2015-11-30 07:01:18 PM susieq4220 Hi Nancy. We're just saying hellos
2015-11-30 07:01:36 PM nancyzmc Hello Ladies . . . thanks for inviting some of us last week
2015-11-30 07:01:40 PM susieq4220 I have been more than 3 years. Started on my birthday
2015-11-30 07:01:51 PM susieq4220 How are you finding this course?
2015-11-30 07:02:01 PM edrar so stinking hard
2015-11-30 07:02:11 PM nancyzmc A bit of a challenge . . . putting it nicely
2015-11-30 07:02:22 PM susieq4220 Oh my... have you taken any courses lately in the last few years?
2015-11-30 07:02:22 PM nancyzmc how about you Susieq
2015-11-30 07:02:46 PM susieq4220 I got my Bachelors five years ago, so getting back to study is not too bad.
2015-11-30 07:02:48 PM edrar I am so good with these resident but when it comes to putting it all on paper like we do, i sound like im in the wrong career. But I'm not.
2015-11-30 07:02:51 PM nancyzmc I haven't taken courses for about 20 years
2015-11-30 07:03:32 PM susieq4220 Hmmm. I think having online courses already has helped me, but I was self-employed and could do the work. Full time and study is hard.
2015-11-30 07:03:38 PM nancyzmc I know what you mean edrar - that and finding time to accomplish it all
2015-11-30 07:03:43 PM edrar the practicums are what i can't seem to get done. I'm so behind on that and have only a few weeks.
2015-11-30 07:03:44 PM susieq4220 Are you okay with Power Point etc.
2015-11-30 07:04:00 PM edrar yea
2015-11-30 07:04:02 PM nancyzmc Never used powerpoint
2015-11-30 07:04:27 PM susieq4220 Hmm. I used a lot of PowerPoint and did a lot of presentations with residents over 2 years.
2015-11-30 07:04:36 PM nancyzmc I'm very glad Ms. Kathy is so generous about us not having to buy books and software . . .
2015-11-30 07:04:59 PM nancyzmc I come from a very Old FACILITY
2015-11-30 07:05:02 PM edrar This is part of the final practicum, isn't it. How do we get credit for this.
2015-11-30 07:05:02 PM susieq4220 Wish I could help you. Nancy, my home email is SAMonaco4220@aol.com. Maybe I can assist
2015-11-30 07:05:20 PM edrar my facility is old and small. Very homelike thought
2015-11-30 07:05:24 PM susieq4220 I think Kathy will see our conversations.
2015-11-30 07:05:38 PM nancyzmc thank you susieq - you may regret offering the help!:)
2015-11-30 07:05:40 PM susieq4220 I moved into Dementia unit which is small and homelike
2015-11-30 07:05:44 PM edrar oh so we don't do anything.
2015-11-30 07:06:00 PM susieq4220 We talk about ideas and plans for coming events.
2015-11-30 07:06:13 PM susieq4220 I think that's easy with Christmas coming
2015-11-30 07:06:30 PM nancyzmc I hoping to do a continuing ed. program about Hanukkah and Kwanzaa
2015-11-30 07:06:32 PM edrar yes it is, people are pounding down my doors to get in.
2015-11-30 07:06:34 PM susieq4220 What special things do you have in the future? Are you doing a Secret Santa
2015-11-30 07:07:14 PM susieq4220 I have some children coming to read... we are going to make our thank you gifts and probably read to them.. Night Before Christmas
2015-11-30 07:07:31 PM nancyzmc Tons of people at Christmas - we are fortunate that our residents names are sent out into the community and gifts are provided for each
2015-11-30 07:07:35 PM edrar We are having entertainment at 2, then santa at 3. All of the residents families will be here. Snacky food, passing out gifts and just having a really good time.
2015-11-30 07:08:12 PM susieq4220 I've been fulltime in Dementia for about a month now. I'm looking to make this Christmas a showcase to relative so they feel more like coming and helping.
2015-11-30 07:08:13 PM edrar It s reall hard to buy for the residents. They get lotions and soaps and colognes from almost everyone.
2015-11-30 07:08:24 PM nancyzmc I think it's wonderful you all have families to the get-togethers - I don't thing our building could hold everyone
2015-11-30 07:08:29 PM susieq4220 You are right. I like homemade
2015-11-30 07:08:55 PM edrar We only have 18 residents, and let me tell ya , we get pretty crowded.
2015-11-30 07:09:16 PM nancyzmc Do each of you supply your residents with gifts for the holidays?
2015-11-30 07:09:46 PM susieq4220 I'm not sure about the dementia unit, Nancy. I don't know how they roll there.
2015-11-30 07:09:50 PM edrar We do, just like 10 or 15 A PIECE, BUT FAMILIES BRING IN GIFTS TOO.
2015-11-30 07:10:04 PM nancyzmc that's generous of you
2015-11-30 07:10:17 PM susieq4220 We did a lot for Thanksgiving with food, but may downplay Christmas. It gets too much for some.
2015-11-30 07:10:49 PM edrar Most of our residents are dementia or alzheimers. I only have about 7 that are high functioning. It makes it hard sometimes.
2015-11-30 07:10:50 PM nancyzmc What do mean downplay
2015-11-30 07:11:26 PM susieq4220 Well, less holiday hoopla. We will decorate in about 2 weeks. I'll get up to speed. We don't have quite so much for everyone, Edra, with gifts
2015-11-30 07:11:44 PM edrar We go big for christmas. We all decorate a door and our Mayor is going to come and judge for us. We will win a 50 dollar gift card.
2015-11-30 07:11:54 PM edrar This is all part of my planning.
2015-11-30 07:12:06 PM nancyzmc There's no way I could supply gifts for all my residents
2015-11-30 07:12:21 PM edrar I don't, my activity budget does.
2015-11-30 07:12:26 PM nancyzmc even though I'd like to - we are blessed with community gifts
2015-11-30 07:12:28 PM susieq4220 We will sing a lot, play a lot of games, I don't know about the gifts in that unit. Truthfully we get forgotten.
2015-11-30 07:12:36 PM edrar I couldn't either
2015-11-30 07:13:02 PM susieq4220 The community sends lots, but most of the gifts stay in the LTC and TCU side. :(
2015-11-30 07:13:04 PM nancyzmc I know what you mean about dementia care units being forgotten
2015-11-30 07:13:09 PM edrar I have a hard time with games, they are not real good at games.
2015-11-30 07:13:46 PM nancyzmc I think they'll enjoy the holidays with the decorations and singing and all you'll provide Susie
2015-11-30 07:13:52 PM susieq4220 We are getting better with games, because I've been doing the physical stuff for more than a year. But art and cooking have declined
2015-11-30 07:14:12 PM susieq4220 Oh, we sing all the time. I just bought lots of bells to make hand shakers
2015-11-30 07:14:28 PM susieq4220 Will either of you have Carolers?
2015-11-30 07:14:45 PM nancyzmc I think that generation is better equipped to celebrate the "togetherness" of the holidays not just the stuff
2015-11-30 07:14:49 PM edrar That is a good idea. I have about 3 groups coming to carol.
2015-11-30 07:14:57 PM nancyzmc We will have tons of carollers
2015-11-30 07:15:07 PM susieq4220 Edra, do you use Activity connection for game ideas?
2015-11-30 07:15:20 PM edrar No, don't we have to pay for that
2015-11-30 07:15:39 PM susieq4220 Hmmm. I will have to send you some games. :):):)
2015-11-30 07:15:44 PM nancyzmc Everyone remembers us at Christmas - I like Ms. Kathy's idea about having volunteers schedule for another time of year also
2015-11-30 07:15:50 PM susieq4220 They are pdf. files.
2015-11-30 07:15:52 PM edrar that would be great. thank you
2015-11-30 07:16:13 PM susieq4220 Nancy, I tried that idea with the activity director on the LTC side and he said nope, doesn't work

2015-11-30 07:18:27 PM susieq4220 Who knows???? He's so reluctant to listen and try new ideas that I transferred out of his side.
2015-11-30 07:18:29 PM nancyzmc just in case that's easier
2015-11-30 07:18:57 PM susieq4220 Nancy, where do you live?
2015-11-30 07:19:00 PM nancyzmc Will you be taking his place?
2015-11-30 07:19:03 PM edrar Alot of my people come in year round anyway.
2015-11-30 07:19:18 PM susieq4220 I think that's what he's afraid of...
2015-11-30 07:19:25 PM edrar probably
2015-11-30 07:19:33 PM nancyzmc I live in Delaware and I work in one of the last, if not the last, county run facility in Pennsylvania
2015-11-30 07:19:44 PM susieq4220 We have a huge volunteer base, but not in the dementia unit. I'm going to change that.
2015-11-30 07:19:55 PM susieq4220 Ah... I live near Dover, DE
2015-11-30 07:20:10 PM susieq4220 My son lives in Wrightsville, PA, near York
2015-11-30 07:20:17 PM nancyzmc I like how positive you are - I need to be more like that
2015-11-30 07:20:33 PM nancyzmc Heard of York . . .
2015-11-30 07:20:35 PM edrar Just keep passing it on and sharing
2015-11-30 07:20:59 PM susieq4220 Is your facility with Genesis Healthcare, Nancy?
2015-11-30 07:21:03 PM nancyzmc I'm dreading becoming Director
2015-11-30 07:21:22 PM nancyzmc No . . . although they've tried a couple of times
2015-11-30 07:21:33 PM nancyzmc We're run by Chester County
2015-11-30 07:21:33 PM susieq4220 Me, too, because I like doing, not doing paperwork and scheduling.
2015-11-30 07:21:46 PM nancyzmc Exactly
2015-11-30 07:21:56 PM edrar I love paperwork and scheduling. I schedule our aides
2015-11-30 07:22:00 PM susieq4220 But we don't make the money
2015-11-30 07:22:09 PM nancyzmc True
2015-11-30 07:22:36 PM susieq4220 I asked for a raise when I moved to dementia and was told no funds available. so.... I learn and look elsewhere
2015-11-30 07:22:39 PM edrar But we make the happy
2015-11-30 07:22:39 PM nancyzmc You'll be in good shape then Edrar
2015-11-30 07:22:54 PM susieq4220 YES>>> we make people happy.
2015-11-30 07:23:18 PM edrar I'm going to ask for a raise after these 2 mepaps.
2015-11-30 07:23:35 PM nancyzmc Unfortunately - from what i've been reading AD's don't make a whole heck of alot either
2015-11-30 07:23:47 PM edrar Do we have to do the 2nd one right after this one, or can we take off a month, or a few weeks?
2015-11-30 07:24:10 PM susieq4220 I think you can schedule for MEPAP 2 whenever you are ready.
2015-11-30 07:24:11 PM edrar I know. We should though. lol
2015-11-30 07:24:11 PM nancyzmc That's a good idea Edra - you'll be certified, worth something
2015-11-30 07:24:41 PM edrar I don't thing this is going to certifiy me
2015-11-30 07:24:45 PM susieq4220 We need to keep encouraging each other. Nancy, how long have you been in eldercare
2015-11-30 07:24:48 PM edrar I have no college hours.
2015-11-30 07:24:49 PM nancyzmc I'm hoping to take January off - maybe do some of the CE courses
2015-11-30 07:25:42 PM nancyzmc I'm sorry I forgot we have to take the exam - but if you take the exam, isn't other "tracks" you can take to be certified?
2015-11-30 07:26:04 PM edrar i'm not sure, i'm still so confused.
2015-11-30 07:26:10 PM susieq4220 No... we have to pass the NCCAP exam.
2015-11-30 07:26:10 PM nancyzmc I meant to say - aren't there other tracks you can take
2015-11-30 07:26:23 PM nancyzmc Bad English on my part - sorry
2015-11-30 07:26:44 PM nancyzmc Ah . . . yes the PASSING of the exam . . .
2015-11-30 07:26:48 PM edrar oh well its always bad typing on my part, i try to go fast and mess a lot. but oh well
2015-11-30 07:26:52 PM susieq4220 With no degree, Edra... you need Hours... plus CEU credits, plus MEPAP 1&2 and pass test.
2015-11-30 07:27:20 PM susieq4220 A degree means I need less hours on the job.
2015-11-30 07:27:41 PM edrar CEU, what do i do for that
2015-11-30 07:27:46 PM nancyzmc True - experience is worth a lot in this job
2015-11-30 07:27:53 PM susieq4220 So, go to NCCAP and print out the requirements.
2015-11-30 07:28:02 PM edrar ok

2015-11-30 07:29:22 PM susieq4220 just set a login and password to see what's available.
2015-11-30 07:29:31 PM nancyzmc Really? Good to know . . . what does it costs to get on ActivityConnection.com?

2015-11-30 07:30:10 PM susieq4220 If you subscibe and use their games etc. it cost $79 per year, I think
2015-11-30 07:30:29 PM nancyzmc $79 for a year - again, not bad
2015-11-30 07:30:35 PM edrar i'm going to have them subscribe to it for me.
2015-11-30 07:31:05 PM susieq4220 I've got enough credits, but just need to save for MEPAP 2 and stop spending money on Amazon.com :):):)
2015-11-30 07:31:34 PM susieq4220 How much do either of you use technology with residents? IPad or computer?
2015-11-30 07:32:01 PM nancyzmc yes Susie - I feel your pain - if I'm not buying Christmas gifts right now, I'm buying stuff for work
2015-11-30 07:32:09 PM edrar I'm still at work, went to walmart to get christmas decorations and got back to late to go home. Besides that my husband took my grand daughter to urgent care and i'm afraid to go in the house at dark. lol I am a chicken
2015-11-30 07:32:21 PM susieq4220 Me too.. and I was hoping for a raise!!!
2015-11-30 07:32:24 PM edrar Not at all.

2015-11-30 07:33:33 PM nancyzmc Another MEPAP1 student was talking about using her iPad
2015-11-30 07:33:35 PM susieq4220 I had a 94 year old and my 63 year old playing Seek-N-Find games last week. I hooked the IPad to my TV and both could see and play
2015-11-30 07:33:40 PM edrar I don't have one, i should get one i guess. Mabe after christmas, i haven't done any christmas shopping yet.
