2016-04-07 06:02:08 PM jackie26 hi everyone how are you
2016-04-07 06:02:20 PM tony03 good thanks
2016-04-07 06:02:20 PM kmdemers hello
2016-04-07 06:02:24 PM ncooper6872 Hello
2016-04-07 06:02:37 PM suzieb how do you guys deal with a new employee that is trying to tell established how to do their jobs? I was on vacation last week and two of mine got mad at each other and are not speaking to each other.
2016-04-07 06:02:38 PM rebecca hello
2016-04-07 06:03:17 PM suzieb wheres Kathy?
2016-04-07 06:03:25 PM ncooper6872 not sure
2016-04-07 06:03:28 PM tony03 you stand firm. You are the boss. Work it out and see what can be resolved. The new employee should know their place
2016-04-07 06:03:45 PM kmdemers i agree
2016-04-07 06:04:02 PM ptonyathomas There are others in the MEPAPII chatroom, should we all be in Open sdiscussion, or am I in the wrong place? Kathy isn't in either, so I have no reference to know which is correct.
2016-04-07 06:04:08 PM jackie26 true
2016-04-07 06:04:35 PM jackie26 this one ptony
2016-04-07 06:04:41 PM ncooper6872 The email I got from Kathy said it will be in Open Disussion room
2016-04-07 06:04:50 PM jackie26 yes
2016-04-07 06:04:52 PM ptonyathomas I just wanted to make sure I didn't miss anything.
2016-04-07 06:04:55 PM tony03 i have come to the conclusion you cannot be a dictator or a friend when running the department
2016-04-07 06:05:08 PM suzieb so did I im going back and forth.
2016-04-07 06:05:09 PM sblasingame enter the chat room
2016-04-07 06:05:44 PM ncooper6872 It is hard keepin the balance when running a department
2016-04-07 06:06:04 PM tony03 they need to put egos aside and worry about the residents
2016-04-07 06:06:16 PM rebecca Building a team with good communication and trust is the goal
2016-04-07 06:06:19 PM ncooper6872 So true
2016-04-07 06:06:20 PM jackie26 that is so true
2016-04-07 06:06:37 PM ptonyathomas left the chat room
2016-04-07 06:06:42 PM ptonyathomas enter the chat room
2016-04-07 06:06:59 PM suzieb Un trying to figure out a way to talk to them without it escalating any further but I had another staff member in the lead and she totally circumvented the order so to speak and the one that got offended is upset because when I have vacation I have to have a back up. The one that started everything has only been there about 3 weeks and used to be a director and decided it was too much paperwork
2016-04-07 06:07:42 PM tony03 oh wow. Never speak to them without a witness present
2016-04-07 06:08:19 PM ncooper6872 It is hard to have some under you that used to run a department. I would talk to them together and get it out in the open.
2016-04-07 06:08:35 PM sblasingame Is this where I should be for the open discussion chat? I'm completely confused but don't want to miss it
2016-04-07 06:08:58 PM skershaw enter the chat room
2016-04-07 06:09:00 PM ncooper6872 The email said open discussion chat room.
2016-04-07 06:09:07 PM suzieb so Im going to use the game part of our final practicum as the ice breaker and Ive already talked to the dietary manager to be present. Our management team also has a policy that we have these types of discussions with another manager
2016-04-07 06:09:09 PM skershaw hello everyone
2016-04-07 06:09:16 PM jackie26 hey sarah
2016-04-07 06:09:25 PM rebecca We've been doing 5-10 minute recaps of the day with good and improveable items
2016-04-07 06:09:41 PM ptonyathomas I was wondering if the game could also be the ice breaker.
2016-04-07 06:09:45 PM ncooper6872 You will have to let us know how it goes for you suzieb
2016-04-07 06:10:22 PM kmdemers what is everyone doing for nursing home week
2016-04-07 06:10:41 PM suzieb its so hard where we are to find someone that fits with the staff you have and make it work sometimes. Ive had two retire in the last two months. Im the type of manager that tells them what I expect and have an open door but I dont understand how grown adults can act this way.
2016-04-07 06:10:51 PM skershaw grab bag binog, magician, planting a memorial tree, music entertainment
2016-04-07 06:11:06 PM kmdemers nice

2016-04-07 06:11:10 PM jackie26 in my facility they are busy thinking about having a strike next week
2016-04-07 06:11:25 PM skershaw strike???
2016-04-07 06:11:33 PM kmdemers thats not good
2016-04-07 06:11:38 PM jackie26 yes sarah
2016-04-07 06:11:51 PM ncooper6872 I have two activity aids that hate each other. So I keep my boundries firm, and keep open discussions. It has works so far.
2016-04-07 06:11:51 PM skershaw you do not have it easy there jackie
2016-04-07 06:11:52 PM ptonyathomas I don't like hearing about these staffing issues. We have had a great team the past 2.5 years here, and we have not lost 2 and are losing another one next week. We are having trouble hirng more staff.
2016-04-07 06:11:55 PM suzieb we are doing a circus themed week of events with entertainment, fair foods, animal shows, face and tattoo painting,
2016-04-07 06:12:00 PM jackie26 at all
2016-04-07 06:12:09 PM skershaw i have on aid that is way to social....
2016-04-07 06:12:33 PM skershaw the other two are good... so i have been documenting everything she does now....
2016-04-07 06:13:03 PM jackie26 that is a good idea documenting cover your back
2016-04-07 06:13:11 PM ptonyathomas Documenting is always important, but especially in situations like yours.
2016-04-07 06:13:11 PM ncooper6872 I never had one to social.
2016-04-07 06:13:15 PM suzieb i just got approved a budget of more hours and dont want to loose them either. Hopefully it will work out but the new employee is in her 90 days too
2016-04-07 06:13:29 PM skershaw yup..then i will have written proff that she doesnt work only talks to everyone,,, not even the residnets!
2016-04-07 06:13:52 PM jackie26 she is friendly lol
2016-04-07 06:14:11 PM suzieb I hope Kathy is ok
2016-04-07 06:14:25 PM skershaw yes she is,,,,but not with residents. seems only for herself. she is very full of her self too..
2016-04-07 06:14:27 PM kmdemers i was just thinking the same thing
2016-04-07 06:14:37 PM skershaw whats up with kathy???
2016-04-07 06:14:40 PM jackie26 i think kathy is out of her office until tomorrow
2016-04-07 06:15:03 PM suzieb It is Thursday? My brain is still in Florida on vacation from last week lol
2016-04-07 06:15:10 PM skershaw oh thats right,,,,duh
2016-04-07 06:15:17 PM suzieb How are you guys doing on your practicuum
2016-04-07 06:15:20 PM ptonyathomas Someone said they got an email from her, when was it sent? I don't recall getting anyting about the change.
2016-04-07 06:15:24 PM jackie26 what part of flo were you suzieb
2016-04-07 06:16:06 PM ncooper6872 I got an email letting me know it is tonight at 8:00 in open discussion chatroom
2016-04-07 06:16:08 PM jackie26 i wrote something to her and I got that auto message back
2016-04-07 06:16:24 PM kmdemers i just started MEPAPII on Tuseday
2016-04-07 06:16:26 PM suzieb Orlando was in the 90s last week which is great change from Ohio took our kids to Universal for the week. Probably the last family trip before out daughter gets married. It was phenomenal
2016-04-07 06:16:30 PM ptonyathomas I am about half done with the practicum. I would be finished if I hadn't been off work for most of the past month. But, I am done with all the classwork and tests.
2016-04-07 06:16:34 PM jackie26 me too kmdemers
2016-04-07 06:16:36 PM skershaw me too kmdemers

2016-04-07 06:17:04 PM skershaw we can help eachother
2016-04-07 06:17:19 PM jackie26 of course sarah
2016-04-07 06:17:23 PM jackie26 you know it
2016-04-07 06:17:26 PM skershaw some of this gets confusing
2016-04-07 06:17:31 PM jackie26 a lot
2016-04-07 06:17:33 PM skershaw yes jackie!
2016-04-07 06:17:37 PM jackie26 lol
2016-04-07 06:17:40 PM ptonyathomas I have found thatm for the most part, it has been easier than MEPAP I. Although I did not do well at all with the final.
2016-04-07 06:18:00 PM skershaw i was hoping this course would show us more on the MDS, care plan, CAA etc
2016-04-07 06:18:05 PM ncooper6872 That is good to know
2016-04-07 06:18:09 PM suzieb Ive got pieces and parts done just have to get it together and post to forum things. I cant believe we only have a couple of weeks left. I wonder how hard the national test will be after we finish this.
2016-04-07 06:18:12 PM jackie26 why ptnony
2016-04-07 06:18:18 PM ptonyathomas Most of this one is leadership/management
2016-04-07 06:19:07 PM suzieb Im good on care plans but still struggle with CAA because social workers trigger me a lot of the time
2016-04-07 06:19:08 PM jackie26 can i call you thomas
2016-04-07 06:19:14 PM skershaw ok,, so after we are finished with mepap II, then we have to take the national test to be cert?
2016-04-07 06:19:34 PM rebecca Agree with more documentation exxperiences
2016-04-07 06:19:38 PM ptonyathomas Why did I do poorly on the final? Some of the wording got me. My other scores were enough that I still have a 100 average. You can call me Thomas or Tonya, I don't have a preference.
2016-04-07 06:20:26 PM jackie26 depend because one of our AD just took MEPAP1 and 2 and he has a bachelor degree he did not take the national test
2016-04-07 06:20:28 PM suzieb Kathy said she would go through what to study. I think we get a number and you call to a test facility near you to take it but it isnt open book, they tell you then if you passed or not.
2016-04-07 06:20:44 PM jackie26 thanks
2016-04-07 06:20:49 PM jackie26 easy lol
2016-04-07 06:20:50 PM naomid enter the chat room
2016-04-07 06:20:50 PM ptonyathomas YOu have to take the national exam and have a certain number of hours working in a facility.
2016-04-07 06:21:04 PM naomid left the chat room
2016-04-07 06:21:04 PM naomid enter the chat room
2016-04-07 06:21:10 PM kmdemers good to know suzieb
2016-04-07 06:21:22 PM skershaw ok,,, i work full time in a center
2016-04-07 06:21:25 PM suzieb i think its a good idea to take it in case the guidelines change. If your already certified there are different levels as well.
2016-04-07 06:21:28 PM jackie26 for sure we can ask kathy
2016-04-07 06:21:30 PM skershaw so i have the hours covered...
2016-04-07 06:21:41 PM ptonyathomas Jackie, did they get a provisional certification? I got my provisional after completing MEPAP I.
2016-04-07 06:22:05 PM sblasingame enter the chat room
2016-04-07 06:22:06 PM jackie26 i am not sure, i did not ask
2016-04-07 06:22:08 PM skershaw provisional cert?
2016-04-07 06:22:20 PM ncooper6872 did it take long to get your provisional when you sent for it
2016-04-07 06:22:32 PM suzieb Provisional can work with work experience and education too you just have to remember to do ceus too. Then you can upgrade after you do both MEPAP sections
2016-04-07 06:22:36 PM ncooper6872 I sent out for my, it has been about 4 weeks
2016-04-07 06:22:58 PM ptonyathomas It just took about 3 weeks to receive.
2016-04-07 06:23:12 PM skershaw ok,, again confused. i never heard of hte provisoinal cert?
2016-04-07 06:23:15 PM jackie26 they send it to you or you have to request it
2016-04-07 06:23:37 PM jackie26 i guess is the one after each MEPAP
2016-04-07 06:23:55 PM jackie26 then you get the national and you are ADC
2016-04-07 06:24:09 PM ncooper6872 You can apply for a provisional Cert. if you complete 3 out of 5 steps. I am on track 5 for ADC
2016-04-07 06:24:22 PM skershaw i feel like after this whole class is done, and i take national cert i will still be missing something.
2016-04-07 06:24:37 PM suzieb it takes them awhile to review so make sure you send everything they ask for but I think I got mine in 5 weeks. You can download the forms from the activity professional website. You can get provisionally certified without Mepap classes and then upgrade as you complete the steps because education and working counts too.
2016-04-07 06:24:43 PM jackie26 but my boss does not have any certification she has a bachelor degree in business manager and my administrator hired her
2016-04-07 06:24:50 PM ptonyathomas The provisional lets you do a lot fo the things the AD does, but someone still has check it. Kind of like a nurse practitioner is; that is the best analogy I can come up with.
2016-04-07 06:24:54 PM sblasingame Ok guys I have a question if yall can help me. I saw we have extra credit specialty track live chat...do ya'll know when that is and what i go to for it...it keeps telling me to look in the forum but I cant find anything
2016-04-07 06:24:58 PM suzieb there are several ways to get certified
2016-04-07 06:25:58 PM kmdemers i tried yesterday to get to the extra credit with no luck
2016-04-07 06:26:09 PM ptonyathomas I ahven't seen one come along in a cuple weeks, but I think they are usually on Wednesdays when they have one.
2016-04-07 06:26:27 PM skershaw i thought we took both mepap courses and tested out on the national cert, then continued at least 5 hours a year in some kind of education. that was we stay cert,,,
2016-04-07 06:26:30 PM jackie26 monday and wednesday 8 pm easter time
2016-04-07 06:26:40 PM sblasingame Ok great thank you
2016-04-07 06:26:43 PM skershaw do we have to recert yearly? or is the national cert good forever
2016-04-07 06:26:43 PM rebecca Ii couldn't get in for extra credit last week
2016-04-07 06:26:44 PM skershaw ?
2016-04-07 06:26:45 PM ptonyathomas I didn't know about Monday.
2016-04-07 06:26:48 PM suzieb The specialty chats schedule is different then the regular. YOu need to check where the description is and it gives you a schedule of when they are for each type. Theres different ones different weeks and if I remeber right they are usually at the beginning of the month
2016-04-07 06:26:53 PM ncooper6872 I the email I got it said they are on Wednesdays 1st, 3rd, 4th, and the 2nd Monday
2016-04-07 06:27:06 PM ptonyathomas The certification is good for 2 years.
2016-04-07 06:27:19 PM suzieb certification i think is for 3 years but you have to do CEUs to maintain it.
2016-04-07 06:27:31 PM jackie26 yes Monday, kathy explained everything on the e-mail that she sent us
2016-04-07 06:27:31 PM ptonyathomas I am glad to know the days for the EC chats
2016-04-07 06:27:43 PM jackie26 yes ncooper

2016-04-07 06:27:57 PM jackie26 me too
2016-04-07 06:27:58 PM skershaw so how do we renew our cert?
2016-04-07 06:28:16 PM naomid I think you can do it online
2016-04-07 06:28:20 PM skershaw ok
2016-04-07 06:28:33 PM suzieb you have to do continuiing education I think too and send in the paperwork proving it
2016-04-07 06:28:36 PM jackie26 sarah did you have time to read the NCCAP certification process not me lol
2016-04-07 06:28:40 PM ptonyathomas I have heard a few people mention getting info about chats in an email. IS everyone here in a specific class? I am in the ownpace class, and wondering if I am not getting everything others are getting.

2016-04-07 06:30:49 PM ptonyathomas Most CEUs have some sort of certificate. If you need CEU and want something ceaper than $10 or more per credit, Collins Online learning is one way. You can take unlimited on line credit course for $149/year. NOt too long ago I saw a special rate of $49/year.
2016-04-07 06:31:28 PM suzieb dont forget you mandatory trainings at work can count for i think 6 hours of the required ammount too

2016-04-07 06:35:06 PM suzieb do you think we should stay on until 9 to get credit without Kathy being here?
2016-04-07 06:35:36 PM jackie26 yes
2016-04-07 06:35:42 PM ptonyathomas The specialty chats are the only ones you get EC for.
2016-04-07 06:35:43 PM sblasingame So how do I know which ones are extra credit? I'm sorry I'm just completely confused about this

2016-04-07 06:37:15 PM suzieb live chats for MEpap own pace are your regular ones and any of them that say specialry chats to the side are the extra credit ones unless she tells you to attend a specialty chat as an assignment for that week. Hope that helps clarify

2016-04-07 06:48:32 PM skershaw they are gone.....
2016-04-07 06:48:37 PM jackie26 lol
2016-04-07 06:48:44 PM jackie26 so we are here alone
2016-04-07 06:48:48 PM skershaw i am still confused about the how cert thing
2016-04-07 06:48:54 PM jackie26 yes me too
2016-04-07 06:49:12 PM jackie26 just go with the flow
2016-04-07 06:49:23 PM carlosm2015 At least 5 Thurdays of the whole course, but it is always good to be here to learn something new or to ask Kathy anything you want.
2016-04-07 06:49:27 PM skershaw and i really wish they would have had more about the "paperwork" like how to do the mds, caa, care plans
2016-04-07 06:49:49 PM ptonyathomas For cert, there are ertain requirement for college credit hours, hours worked in activities, CEUs, MEPAP I and MEPAP II and the national exam.
2016-04-07 06:49:50 PM jackie26 yes
2016-04-07 06:50:06 PM skershaw thats important to me
2016-04-07 06:50:34 PM ptonyathomas I would liked to have more of those things also.
2016-04-07 06:50:40 PM carlosm2015 We should be getting more in detail with MDS, Care Plans, and more on this course.
2016-04-07 06:51:16 PM ptonyathomas I thought that too, but there wasn't anything about that in this course.
2016-04-07 06:51:49 PM skershaw i sure hope so!!!
2016-04-07 06:52:35 PM carlosm2015 Ok i wish everyone a succesful course and looking foward to work together during the next 16 weeks (y)
2016-04-07 06:52:36 PM skershaw looking at the sylibus for mepap II looks like its all about the "boss" position
