2016-09-06 06:18:12 PM jackiebl today i learned that a resident that only wanders loves to sort things. i have a huge bag of items and she was so dedicated and happy when sorting them. it is fabulous when you home into the right activity!
2016-09-06 06:18:17 PM chaplaindeb But I do get lots of participation. My ED evaluates my activities using his own criteria: "Mr. Z's Interestingness Gauge" - it's basically "if the residents who can get there on their own come without being brought, it's an interesting activities."

2016-09-06 06:20:56 PM pbaines2 I am thinking of ideas for November and December. I have to go to the storage and get all of the decorations. So, I know one activity will be sorting.
2016-09-06 06:20:59 PM nursesusie We are talking about a roaring twenty party
2016-09-06 06:21:07 PM lwilliams okay guys im gonna go. I was tryna see if anyone had any ideas on our midterm packet.
2016-09-06 06:21:11 PM christina12 oooo the 20s are awesome
2016-09-06 06:21:18 PM chaplaindeb I like Oktoberfest idea. Residents in our bldg need to have MD orders to have alcohol, but I could order in some O'Douls and have the kitchen mae wurst.
2016-09-06 06:21:28 PM megansnider tats a good idea
2016-09-06 06:21:32 PM katierdale i have a tough question, it may be a bit personal but - does anyone have problems trying not to have "favorite" residents?
2016-09-06 06:21:42 PM kathyhughes Send what Deb????
2016-09-06 06:21:42 PM robina1 enter the chat room

2016-09-06 06:21:59 PM kathyhughes We all have favorite residents
2016-09-06 06:22:02 PM dbaxter I usually get the "fake" beer as thats what we are allowed to serve.. I still have to check with staff about who can have it
2016-09-06 06:22:03 PM bestkat4u yes
2016-09-06 06:22:07 PM kathyhughes Its all past of the job
2016-09-06 06:22:08 PM saraurb octoberfest would be a blast! you could do non alcoholic beers and DELICIOUS fods (aso a sensory program!!)

2016-09-06 06:22:27 PM christina12 yes you get really attached and it hurts when they pass but you have that relationship for a reason like a friendship
2016-09-06 06:22:27 PM elimazeg I planned an Oktober Fest party too, we'll gonna have pretzels and some non-alcoholic drinks

2016-09-06 06:22:40 PM cindyc We do have favorites, but I try not to show it.
2016-09-06 06:22:45 PM dianajohnson HOW DO YOU DO IT S LITTLE
2016-09-06 06:22:48 PM kathyhughes You upload the assignments
2016-09-06 06:22:53 PM nursesusie It is hard but you must remember each resident has their own personality and we need to respect them
2016-09-06 06:22:55 PM katierdale I don't try to play favorites or anything at all. I just find it like impossible
2016-09-06 06:22:56 PM aguison left the chat room
2016-09-06 06:23:11 PM kathyhughes You should look at the Help videos and see how to upload them
2016-09-06 06:23:13 PM megansnider kathy - if there is no activities assoiation meeting before the midterm is due and a group of folks cannot all gather at once can i gather with one or two people at a time and then compile an talk to my supervsor about that?
2016-09-06 06:23:13 PM mrsb2164 I am having a tail gate party!! GO BRONCOS!!!
2016-09-06 06:23:16 PM chaplaindeb We all have favorite residents. The great thing is that we all have different ones. I have a special group of my residents who don't speak, one of my assistants likes a resident I have to work REALLY hard to like; the other one has favorites that neither of the others of us mesh with. Between us and the therapists, the aides and the nurses, everyone is somebody's favourite.
2016-09-06 06:23:17 PM bestkat4u some are alway going to do more than othres but i try to be fair to all

2016-09-06 06:23:38 PM katierdale chaplaindeb, that's great.
2016-09-06 06:23:40 PM chaplaindeb The important bit is not to let others know.
2016-09-06 06:23:40 PM megansnider thanks!

2016-09-06 06:23:48 PM slittle We have an art program that helps it look fancy. But generally we have resident & staff birthdays, monthly events, resident or staff spotlight, classified section
2016-09-06 06:23:53 PM mcurtis512 we have newsletter but its run by our corparte office and they use it as a marketing tool so
2016-09-06 06:24:11 PM slittle it's only 4 pages
2016-09-06 06:24:18 PM aguison does anybody do a residents birthday celebration once a month for those who have their birthdays?
2016-09-06 06:24:23 PM chaplaindeb Because they are very capable of being jealous. Everyone needs to know they're special to someone.
2016-09-06 06:24:23 PM bestkat4u when one gets upset i try to get them to handle small jobs
2016-09-06 06:24:25 PM deb4321 yes
