2016-06-23 05:45:30 PM amber88 hello
2016-06-23 05:45:40 PM kathyhughes great!
2016-06-23 05:46:15 PM kmdemers does it need to be on a letter head for the assignment
2016-06-23 05:47:23 PM kmdemers hello amber
2016-06-23 05:47:32 PM amber88 what is the difference between a life enrichment program and an activity program?
2016-06-23 05:47:34 PM amber88 hello
2016-06-23 05:48:21 PM kathyhughes It should be on letter head, but not for the assignment
2016-06-23 05:48:31 PM kathyhughes Amber it's the same thing
2016-06-23 05:48:32 PM kmdemers ok thank you
2016-06-23 05:49:05 PM kathyhughes People think that by calling it Life Enrichment it makes it more important I guess
2016-06-23 05:49:14 PM kathyhughes but I think it confuses people
2016-06-23 05:49:47 PM amber88 thats what I thought. I met with an activity director today that wants me to be her assistant activity director and she was telling me that she has a life enrichment program and an activity program that is running as one right now and she would like to split it and have two programs. I was confused because I was pretty sure it was the same thing
2016-06-23 05:50:20 PM kathyhughes As far as I know it's the same thing
2016-06-23 05:50:36 PM amber88 hmmmm interesting
2016-06-23 05:50:45 PM kathyhughes We all fall under the same regulations
2016-06-23 05:52:03 PM amber88 thats what I thought but I figured I would ask. Im supposed to officially be offered the job next week so hopefully I am

2016-06-23 05:52:35 PM kathyhughes I am sure that you will be able to let me know once you firgured it out and I know that you will get the job
2016-06-23 05:52:55 PM kathyhughes Thats great Kathleen who was the speaker?

2016-06-23 06:01:36 PM caitlinm Our center had held the senior citizen olympics for nursing home week, and the residents loved it. We hadn't discussed the olympics yet, but I'm sure we could do it again!
2016-06-23 06:01:38 PM shensle ooh
2016-06-23 06:01:57 PM caitlinm We had wheelchair races, frisbee toss, ping pong... we gave out dollar store trophies

2016-06-23 06:02:02 PM kathyhughes There are a ton of ideas posted on the NCCAP Pinterest Board

2016-06-23 06:02:51 PM kathyhughes https://www.pinterest.com/nccap/olympics/

2016-06-23 06:03:03 PM jackie26 thanks i will take a look
2016-06-23 06:03:07 PM caitlinm I was so worried about the wheelchair races before we did them, but that was what the residents really loved them the most
2016-06-23 06:03:09 PM shensle ooh ring toss for everyone
2016-06-23 06:03:22 PM shensle it was soo STRESSFULL
2016-06-23 06:03:23 PM shensle haha

2016-06-23 06:03:41 PM amber88 lol...it is stressful but i found it gets easier as you go along
2016-06-23 06:03:47 PM shensle yeah i agree
2016-06-23 06:03:54 PM kathyhughes You know sometimes a simple calendar is the best
2016-06-23 06:04:01 PM shensle yeah
2016-06-23 06:04:04 PM jackie26 yes
2016-06-23 06:04:10 PM akline i agree
2016-06-23 06:04:14 PM shensle i learned that
2016-06-23 06:04:16 PM monigreen Yep
2016-06-23 06:04:27 PM shensle but for arts an crafts days i want to know what craft i am doing
2016-06-23 06:04:31 PM caitlinm And you can always leave residents' choice slots if you aren't sure what to put
2016-06-23 06:04:41 PM shensle instead of winging it which my old boss did and it drove me crazy
2016-06-23 06:04:52 PM kathyhughes It's best to plan ahead
2016-06-23 06:05:01 PM shensle ooh i like that residents choice idea
2016-06-23 06:05:05 PM jackie26 exactly i do that too residents choice and cover your back
2016-06-23 06:05:08 PM kathyhughes and to let the residents help plan the calendar
2016-06-23 06:05:12 PM akline i had a boss who winged everything....it was so unorganized. I hated it!
2016-06-23 06:05:18 PM amber88 yes it always drove me crazy too so I always plan activities based on the month and season and put it on my calendar that way instead of just writing arts and crafts
2016-06-23 06:05:19 PM shensle right
2016-06-23 06:05:38 PM monigreen We have an activity planning meeting at the beginning of the month that the residents attend and they help us plan the following calendar
2016-06-23 06:05:39 PM shensle ok so i am NOT crazy lol
2016-06-23 06:05:43 PM ptonyathomas When I was intereim director, I left a couple resident choice slots and was told that I had to actually have activities planned for that. But at the same time, it was to be a resident driven program. Very frustrating.
2016-06-23 06:05:54 PM shensle yeah
2016-06-23 06:06:05 PM shensle thats my building too thata why i never even thought bout it

2016-06-23 06:07:15 PM ptonyathomas OUr resident council only has a couple people who talk, and they aren't too vocal except to tell what they want for Take Out thursday.

2016-06-23 06:17:56 PM awatts I TELL THEM THAT THE MEMBERS ARE THEIR NO1 PRIORITY AND IT SEEMS THEY JUST THINK THEY ARE THERE TO TEACH THEM
2016-06-23 06:18:04 PM awatts OK
2016-06-23 06:18:26 PM kathyhughes and I would share with them the regulations explaining to them that if it weren't for the regulations they would not have a job

2016-06-23 06:18:58 PM adillon12 hardest part of being a dircetor is DEFFINIATLY dealing with the staff....
2016-06-23 06:18:59 PM kathyhughes Yes this is MEPAP2
2016-06-23 06:19:01 PM awatts OK
2016-06-23 06:19:33 PM noreens thanks what are we talking about tonight
2016-06-23 06:19:34 PM kathyhughes And I would not think of it as "orders" but as assisting them to do their jobs easier
2016-06-23 06:19:38 PM jackie26 yes it is adillon
2016-06-23 06:19:39 PM vstephens yes staff can either be draining or a piece of cake
2016-06-23 06:19:42 PM awatts WHEN SHOULD I BEGIN A WRITTEN NOTICE IN THEIR FILE
2016-06-23 06:19:49 PM kathyhughes Start now
2016-06-23 06:19:54 PM belindaf document
2016-06-23 06:20:03 PM awatts YES I WILL DO THAT
2016-06-23 06:20:05 PM kathyhughes but find out why they are having issues
2016-06-23 06:20:08 PM skershaw yup documentation is a good thing
2016-06-23 06:20:08 PM caitlinm Would it be better to talk to them in person before writing something?
2016-06-23 06:20:14 PM vstephens yes and document
2016-06-23 06:20:28 PM belindaf and document that you spoke with them
2016-06-23 06:20:38 PM akline were these people once your coworkers and are having a hard time with you now being their boss?
2016-06-23 06:20:43 PM shensle geesh thats all sounds crazy
2016-06-23 06:20:50 PM kathyhughes Yes I always found that if I sat them down and listened to them that we would not have to write them up as much
2016-06-23 06:20:52 PM jackie26 i do not have an assistant i am the assistant lol
2016-06-23 06:20:56 PM awatts NO I HAVE BEEN THIER BOSS
2016-06-23 06:21:01 PM jackie26 and the interin director
2016-06-23 06:21:11 PM shensle me too
2016-06-23 06:21:21 PM jackie26 find out what they want
2016-06-23 06:21:26 PM caitlinm when you hired them, there must've been something you liked about them. maybe remind them of what you saw in them?
2016-06-23 06:21:30 PM kathyhughes However, I always wrote up the conversation and kept it in a seperate file with dates and what we talked about
2016-06-23 06:21:46 PM adillon12 awatts...try talking to them... but sometimes witting people up is the onlu option, if they do not do their job correctly the residents are the ones that miss out.
2016-06-23 06:21:59 PM vstephens yes and if it comes to a second time be sure to have them sign it
2016-06-23 06:22:03 PM kathyhughes How long have they been employed in activities?????
2016-06-23 06:22:08 PM belindaf left the chat room
2016-06-23 06:22:31 PM belindaf enter the chat room
2016-06-23 06:22:34 PM noreens def. need the paper trail
2016-06-23 06:22:37 PM awatts ONE HAS BEEN EMPLOYED FOR 2 MONTHS AND THE OTHER 4 MONTHS
2016-06-23 06:22:48 PM adillon12 8 years!
2016-06-23 06:22:50 PM belindaf are they feeding off of each other?
2016-06-23 06:23:06 PM adillon12 I started working in activities when I was 16
2016-06-23 06:23:06 PM jackie26 awatts sometimes is the way that you talk to them
2016-06-23 06:23:07 PM belindaf negative begats negative
2016-06-23 06:23:09 PM kathyhughes The 2 month person can then be dismissed as it is still the probation period
2016-06-23 06:23:23 PM kathyhughes You are too late for the 4 month person
2016-06-23 06:23:34 PM 12789 enter the chat room
2016-06-23 06:23:45 PM 12789 hello everyone! sorry i am late!
2016-06-23 06:23:50 PM awatts HOWEVER, ONE OF THE ASSISTANTS USED TO BE A TEACHER AND I REALLY DO NOT LIKE THE WAY SHE TREATS THE MEMBERS LIKE CHILDREN ALMOST
2016-06-23 06:24:00 PM jackie26 i have lazy assistant and they pretend that they do not understand what iam asking for
2016-06-23 06:24:02 PM kathyhughes so I would simply check with HR and tell HR that you are dismissing the person as it is not working out
2016-06-23 06:24:06 PM adillon12 these group chats always go too fast for me. Sorry Kathy I misread your question
2016-06-23 06:24:16 PM shensle would definitely tell HR
2016-06-23 06:24:31 PM 12789 what are we speaking about?
2016-06-23 06:24:31 PM shensle or even report it to the state if they dont listen
2016-06-23 06:24:32 PM amber88 i thought you didnt have assistants jackie?
2016-06-23 06:24:36 PM vstephens I would work with HR
2016-06-23 06:24:39 PM awatts OK I WOULD FEEL BETTER TO DISMISS THE ONE ON PROBATION
2016-06-23 06:24:50 PM jackie26 well is a way to call them lol
2016-06-23 06:25:04 PM caitlinm Maybe tell the teacher to think of the residents as other colleagues instead of students
2016-06-23 06:25:05 PM kathyhughes For the person that has been there 4 months, maybe by dismissing the new person that person will shape up
