2016-09-08 06:16:46 PM nursesusie We are going to have an in house election.
2016-09-08 06:16:47 PM dorothymagliulo dont know
2016-09-08 06:16:59 PM dianed72 My boss wants to have a mock election
2016-09-08 06:16:59 PM shensle this election is a big one
2016-09-08 06:17:08 PM hayesmsthing We are running elections for a new President/Vice/Secretary for our resident council. We do it every 4 years. The debate are intense!!
2016-09-08 06:17:11 PM kateordway you get ping pong sized balls and paint an eyeball on them and get 5-7 buckets and place them in line with space in between each one and then put a line on the floor where the resident has to stand/sit behind and toss the "eyeball" in the bucket. the more the buckets they can get the better the prize. like they on the bozo show
2016-09-08 06:17:17 PM noreens we are having an election day to fill out the ballots
2016-09-08 06:17:49 PM dorothymagliulo oh thats different
2016-09-08 06:17:55 PM chelcia Pin the tail on the donkey. Just kidding. My residents want no part in the coming election or voting for that matter. The only two that want to vote are discharging tomorrow.
2016-09-08 06:17:57 PM shensle hehe i like the eyeball toss
2016-09-08 06:18:10 PM kathyhughes Does everyone who wants to vote?
2016-09-08 06:18:16 PM shensle but i thought it was those sticky eyes i think the ping pong balls better
2016-09-08 06:18:19 PM kateordway thats an awswome idea.
2016-09-08 06:18:35 PM shensle yeah most of my people want to be there not absentee ballots
2016-09-08 06:18:40 PM nursesusie after the resident have voted we plan to serve cupcakes RED<WHITE &BLY
2016-09-08 06:18:41 PM teaves yes
2016-09-08 06:18:42 PM dianed72 Absentee ballot for several residents
2016-09-08 06:18:51 PM beccalr Absentee ballot for a majority
2016-09-08 06:19:21 PM mberroa I have absentee ballots for a few of the residents. Many say they don't even want to vote this election
2016-09-08 06:19:25 PM noreens I think sometimes its tuff voting as the residents cognitve health declines, when do you stop the process
2016-09-08 06:19:34 PM tlgst16 Most of ours are absentee ballots as well. We really have focused on not getting tagged for voting with a voting binder.
2016-09-08 06:19:50 PM hayesmsthing Mostly absentee but we are walk/roll our seniors to neighborhood school (one block away) to put in actual votes if thats what they choose. We use alot of volunteers that day
2016-09-08 06:19:51 PM kathyhughes We would set up a polling place in our activity room and most residents would come and fill in their ballots
2016-09-08 06:19:58 PM kateordway whats a voting binder?
2016-09-08 06:20:14 PM mberroa how did you arrange the polling place?
2016-09-08 06:20:17 PM kathyhughes Noreen,
2016-09-08 06:20:20 PM dianed72 That's good Idea
2016-09-08 06:20:22 PM tlgst16 We must ask every resident if they want to vote, including lower functioning residents. They must check a yes or no box if they want to vote and we keep track of each resident.
2016-09-08 06:20:28 PM tlgst16 It's complicated.
2016-09-08 06:20:37 PM noreens yes Kathy
2016-09-08 06:20:38 PM dorothymagliulo in my facility the social worker does the election ballots.
2016-09-08 06:20:43 PM tlgst16 We have a very large facility with many diverse residents.
2016-09-08 06:20:50 PM kathyhughes Unless a resident is deamed incompetant by a judge they can all vote
2016-09-08 06:20:56 PM shensle yeah we let the social workers know if someone asks for one as well
2016-09-08 06:21:15 PM nursesusie I have been going around the faculity and asking each resident if they want to vote
2016-09-08 06:21:16 PM tlgst16 Lucky ducks. Social workers used to do it, but it ended up an activity task.
2016-09-08 06:21:23 PM beccalr I keep a spreadsheet with all resident answers, date i sent registration/absentee ballot out
2016-09-08 06:21:30 PM kathyhughes We set up some tables and had good lighting and red/white/blue decorations
2016-09-08 06:21:30 PM tlgst16 We needed documentation to prove what we are doing.
2016-09-08 06:21:33 PM dorothymagliulo not a resident who has alzmiers
2016-09-08 06:21:34 PM shensle everything becomes an activity task
2016-09-08 06:21:36 PM shensle lol
2016-09-08 06:21:45 PM noreens that is what i am going by. just sometimes it is questionable
2016-09-08 06:21:46 PM kathyhughes yes Dorothy
2016-09-08 06:21:50 PM dianed72 Yes it does....

2016-09-08 06:21:57 PM kathyhughes They have the right to vote
2016-09-08 06:21:59 PM beccalr If a resident was lower functioning we asked the resident and wrote their respones and had a witness.
2016-09-08 06:22:15 PM noreens Absolutley
2016-09-08 06:22:31 PM beccalr If they said yes they want to vote we had them mark, if they were un able to respond we wrote that as their response.
2016-09-08 06:22:32 PM kathyhughes Unless they are deamend incompetant by a court of law they can vote
2016-09-08 06:22:37 PM kathyhughes if they want to
