2016-08-02 06:36:03 PM dorisb left the chat room
2016-08-02 06:36:08 PM nancyd REDIRECT THEM
2016-08-02 06:36:09 PM dorisb enter the chat room
2016-08-02 06:36:15 PM angelasulli for examle i have a few ladies that get really agitated or just rude during bingo but i cannot stop the game just to tell them to be have
2016-08-02 06:36:16 PM dianajohnson THERAPY EVEN COMES AND TELLS ME SOMEONE NEEDS NAILS DONE WELL YOU ARE O.T. TEACH THEM HOW TO DO NAILS BETTER THAN PUTTING PEGS IN A BOARD
2016-08-02 06:36:18 PM kathyhughes Give them 3 warnings and then they are out of the activity until the next one
2016-08-02 06:36:21 PM sashavowell and if you have a group of mean girls try and seperate them
2016-08-02 06:36:26 PM lladio We haven't had a potluck in awhile
2016-08-02 06:36:27 PM michaelthorsonad and any good ideas for redirecting
2016-08-02 06:36:32 PM angelasulli can you be more specific with redirecting
2016-08-02 06:36:42 PM bestkat4u family and staff bring in the food and the kitchen chops it or puree it for the residents
2016-08-02 06:36:42 PM scomeau warnings and then they cant come to the next activity
2016-08-02 06:36:43 PM nancyd LETS GO TAKE A WALK
2016-08-02 06:36:45 PM sfuentes move them from the group
2016-08-02 06:36:46 PM angelasulli ahh! 3 stikes is a great idea
2016-08-02 06:36:47 PM saraurb i have a group of 3-4 mean girls and they're so tough to redirect
2016-08-02 06:36:49 PM corrie depends on the resident and what the issue is
2016-08-02 06:36:50 PM dbaxter Redirection and try to keep the residents separated if possible. One of my residents becomes mean sometimes due to her dementia progressing. There is nothing that can be said to persuade her to be nicer. We usually just redirect her to a more isolated area and try to redirect..
2016-08-02 06:36:53 PM rbordelon but we have a welcoming committee
2016-08-02 06:36:54 PM dorisb I find a cup of coffee and a cookie does wonders sometimes
2016-08-02 06:36:54 PM saraurb usually food helps, though.
2016-08-02 06:36:54 PM thevo2st redirecting? yes I need an explain...
