2017-07-12 06:27:45 PM cynkarnes76 Celeste, yes that cell phone call is frustrating
2017-07-12 06:28:07 PM priscillad YES...AND CORRECTING THEM ALL THE TIME IS NOT A GOOD IDEA
2017-07-12 06:28:09 PM jcking true jackie
2017-07-12 06:28:11 PM cchase like a cell - the brain only able to process here and there

2017-07-12 06:28:37 PM cynkarnes76 I struggle with our lady who is not able to communicate
2017-07-12 06:28:49 PM cchase never...never argue...YOU WILL LOSE
2017-07-12 06:28:53 PM cchase sp.
2017-07-12 06:29:01 PM nikiawyche look at her body lanaguage
2017-07-12 06:29:02 PM jackieb92 like if one of my residents asks me why her husband isnt visiting her i just say well maybe his busy he will come see you tomorrow ( i dont tell her hes dead) is that a good excuse
2017-07-12 06:29:07 PM priscillad YES, AND I OFTEN USE A COMMUNICATION BOARD...WITH PICTURES...
2017-07-12 06:29:20 PM cchase so think in those terms... words missing, sounds that are scary
2017-07-12 06:29:32 PM nikiawyche yes I try to make sure that everyone is telling the resident the same thing
2017-07-12 06:29:37 PM cchase an environment that is no longer familiar
2017-07-12 06:30:01 PM nicolespangler they are probably really scared; at least I would be
2017-07-12 06:30:10 PM jackieb92 i would be scared too
2017-07-12 06:30:12 PM cchase yes..jackie. never never tell them the reality
2017-07-12 06:30:21 PM dominiquesow omg! once they are start looking for thier dead parents or wanted to get ready for school or looking for the lost spouse or cussing or accusing others for stealing her husband- that a total struggles for us and the caregivers
2017-07-12 06:30:22 PM cynkarnes76 Most the times, I don't have the time to really sit and work with her. I do what I can... hmm, communication board with pictures, used something like that in the past not sure if it would work but worth a try
2017-07-12 06:30:26 PM cchase esp. of someone that passed away - they relive the pain
2017-07-12 06:30:44 PM dominiquesow join the journey!
2017-07-12 06:30:44 PM cchase because they forgot that it happened
2017-07-12 06:30:53 PM jcking what should you say if they dont realize parents have passed?
2017-07-12 06:30:56 PM priscillad I AGREE
2017-07-12 06:31:01 PM cchase YOU STEP INTO THEIR WORLD!
2017-07-12 06:31:16 PM nicolespangler I have one that tries to get outside every day looking for her passed husband. Its so hard, but I just redirect as best as possible.
2017-07-12 06:31:18 PM cchase therapeutic fiblets..
2017-07-12 06:31:39 PM cynkarnes76 Yes Dom it can be distressing trying to alleve someone's fears and distress about loved ones who are deceased: I try redirection, doesn't always work
2017-07-12 06:31:43 PM cchase jcking.... tell them that someone is busy right now
2017-07-12 06:31:54 PM jcking ok
2017-07-12 06:31:57 PM dominiquesow althought sometimes reality orientation helped other residents
2017-07-12 06:31:58 PM jackieb92 another one of my alz residents found a death notice of her husband in her room and cried all day we felt awful he passed away years ago but she thought it just happened and no one told her and she thought she missed the funeral and everything
2017-07-12 06:32:01 PM nikiawyche yes we make memory books and if they are having a bad day talking about someone who passed we filp thru our memory books
2017-07-12 06:32:03 PM cchase never say they are gone for good
2017-07-12 06:32:10 PM dominiquesow redirection wont work sometimes
2017-07-12 06:32:10 PM priscillad I HAVE ONE RES WHO STILL THINKS HES A COP. I GOT HIM A BADGE AND A NOTEBOOK TO WRITE TICKETS
2017-07-12 06:32:12 PM cynkarnes76 Yes Celeste I have done a lot of therapeutic fibbing
2017-07-12 06:32:19 PM cchase oh jackie that's awful
2017-07-12 06:32:34 PM nikiawyche yes pricilla I have one of them to and a fire fighter
2017-07-12 06:32:35 PM dominiquesow and asking for the phone is another worst thing too- wanting to call dead spouse or parents

2017-07-12 06:32:53 PM dominiquesow (y)
2017-07-12 06:32:58 PM nikiawyche dom I have fun designed for that
2017-07-12 06:33:08 PM nicolespangler I have another that always thinks the "children" are lost. I don't know what children, but we just tell her they are outside playing and she is super happy with that answer
2017-07-12 06:33:20 PM cchase we had a nurse we would call that pretended to be the daughter of someone. it worked great
2017-07-12 06:33:35 PM nikiawyche exactly
2017-07-12 06:33:42 PM cchase nicole...she is really talking about herself feeling lost.
2017-07-12 06:34:02 PM nicolespangler wow I never thought of that
2017-07-12 06:34:10 PM cchase they will mirror their feeling through another
2017-07-12 06:34:10 PM cynkarnes76 Celeste, I love that idea: I wonder if I could get away with pretending to call a distressed resident
2017-07-12 06:34:14 PM priscillad YES, CCHASE....WE DO AS WELL...WORKS WONDERS FOR MY RES
2017-07-12 06:34:15 PM jcking I had an alz patient who wrote himself a note that he had alz.
2017-07-12 06:34:16 PM jackieb92 it was awful, there was nothing the staff could do to calm her down her son came in and talked with her
2017-07-12 06:34:37 PM cchase our nurse was awesome at those calls
2017-07-12 06:34:43 PM jackieb92 i should keep that in mind
2017-07-12 06:34:59 PM nikiawyche yes I always let them call
2017-07-12 06:35:17 PM nicolespangler yes, thats an interesting thought
2017-07-12 06:35:19 PM jackieb92 even though my one resident her son took her phone out of her room because she forgot she called him 150 times in a row and im not kidding when i say that over night
2017-07-12 06:35:21 PM nikiawyche we call the front desk all the time and it really helps
2017-07-12 06:35:27 PM cchase jcking...that to me is the lowest anyone can be at..so so sorry that he wrote himself a note to remind himself of Alz
2017-07-12 06:35:53 PM jcking left the chat room
2017-07-12 06:36:04 PM cchase say that someone forgot to pay the phone bill so it does not work at this moment
2017-07-12 06:36:09 PM priscillad I BELIEVE IT JACKIE! WE HAD A FAMILY MEMBER TO CHANGE THEIR NUMBER BC OF IT AND GAVE IT TO NURSING FOR EMERGENCY PURPOSES
2017-07-12 06:36:16 PM jcking enter the chat room
2017-07-12 06:36:21 PM cchase say that they are doing construction so the phone lince are down
2017-07-12 06:36:27 PM nikiawyche yes place the phone in the room just unplug it

2017-07-12 06:36:36 PM cchase yup - unplug
2017-07-12 06:36:54 PM jackieb92 she never asks about a phone -she cant remember she had one to begin with she doesnt bring it up to me anyway
2017-07-12 06:36:57 PM cchase dom - they have to do what??
2017-07-12 06:37:02 PM jackieb92 i try to keep her busy too
2017-07-12 06:37:08 PM nikiawyche removing items that are normally in there setting cause more frustration
2017-07-12 06:37:15 PM cchase redirect... to something else
2017-07-12 06:37:55 PM priscillad YES.....
2017-07-12 06:37:56 PM cchase sometimes..removing create a problem and soemtimes it works - cause they forget about it
2017-07-12 06:38:02 PM cynkarnes76 I have tried the, "it's really late and they are probably in bed, tomorrow morning would be better to call" sometimes it worked and sometimes it didn't
2017-07-12 06:38:04 PM nikiawyche alot of the stuff that is done to the alzheimers residents is because folks are unaware
2017-07-12 06:38:20 PM cchase be warned
2017-07-12 06:38:21 PM dominiquesow family changing phone nos so they will not be contacted
2017-07-12 06:38:31 PM cchase they can catch on..to your fiblets
2017-07-12 06:38:37 PM nicolespangler wow thats really sad.
2017-07-12 06:38:43 PM dominiquesow tmrw I will be an aide at the memory unit...
2017-07-12 06:38:44 PM cchase which is so much worse
2017-07-12 06:38:51 PM nikiawyche all they have to do is write the residents number down it will ring busy
2017-07-12 06:38:55 PM cynkarnes76 yes, I remember that about therapeutic fibbing, you can't promise anything
2017-07-12 06:39:28 PM jcking I wish our alz residents in the early stages would be more patient with the advanced staged residents.
2017-07-12 06:39:31 PM cchase also do not give someone a specific time that something will happen
2017-07-12 06:39:33 PM dominiquesow that is why having activities on the neighborhood helps to keepo their mind off from old memories
2017-07-12 06:39:40 PM cchase I always hear cna...say
2017-07-12 06:39:56 PM nikiawyche yes they can't remember time
2017-07-12 06:39:58 PM nicolespangler is it because they focus too much on the specific time?
2017-07-12 06:40:01 PM cchase the kids will be home at three
2017-07-12 06:40:08 PM dominiquesow some caregivers thought we are baby sitters they bring all the confused people in the activity room that thinking we can pacify them
2017-07-12 06:40:10 PM nicolespangler or they dont comprehend it?
2017-07-12 06:40:10 PM priscillad I JUST SAY IN A LITTLE WHILE
2017-07-12 06:40:25 PM cchase most are no able to intuitively feel time
2017-07-12 06:40:25 PM jackieb92 i say later
2017-07-12 06:40:39 PM cynkarnes76 dom: I have had that treatment from CNAs and other nursing
2017-07-12 06:40:44 PM nikiawyche thats what nursing thinks dom why else are we there lol
2017-07-12 06:40:46 PM cchase but sometimes they hear someone say it's three oclock
2017-07-12 06:40:47 PM dominiquesow some are easy to redirect some are really hard
2017-07-12 06:40:59 PM cchase and they go back to expecting the kids
2017-07-12 06:41:03 PM nikiawyche I often say to nursing everyone is a part of the activity team
2017-07-12 06:41:05 PM dominiquesow yes
2017-07-12 06:41:12 PM nicolespangler I typically don't give a specific time, I'll say soon or in a little while, etc
2017-07-12 06:41:27 PM cchase we never put up a clock where it can be seen
2017-07-12 06:41:41 PM jcking I wish that our early stage alz residents would be more patient with our advanced alz residents.
2017-07-12 06:41:46 PM dominiquesow they shovel everyone in and then i cant get out the activity room coz these people are fall risk
2017-07-12 06:41:47 PM nikiawyche yes i learned that when i first started in act
2017-07-12 06:41:49 PM jackieb92 i completely agree
2017-07-12 06:41:54 PM jackieb92 jcking
2017-07-12 06:42:06 PM dominiquesow i cant invite more people to join i was really stuck
2017-07-12 06:42:06 PM nicolespangler on the same note, I a;ways have one that asks, "am I old?" or "how old am I?" I have never really known how to approach an answer to those ones
2017-07-12 06:42:34 PM cchase I tell them that they are a spring chicken
2017-07-12 06:42:38 PM nikiawyche I had a resident that every day at 3pm would start having a bad day I removed the clock and she was good
2017-07-12 06:42:45 PM dominiquesow nicole i would say it is 2017 today and what year you were born?
2017-07-12 06:42:54 PM priscillad JCKING...HAVE YOU TRIED HAVING 2 DIFFERENT GROUPS WITH THEM....EARLY STAGE GROUP THEN ADVANCED ALZ
2017-07-12 06:42:57 PM dominiquesow hahahha i like that niki
2017-07-12 06:43:11 PM dominiquesow ours are mix
2017-07-12 06:43:15 PM cchase dom - never ask them a question your not sure they know
2017-07-12 06:43:25 PM cchase like when where you born
2017-07-12 06:43:30 PM cynkarnes76 Nikia, removing the clock ingenious
2017-07-12 06:43:32 PM dominiquesow ok
2017-07-12 06:43:38 PM nicolespangler I have actually said that exact phrase in the past, celeste. So I am glad that I was not way off. haha
2017-07-12 06:43:40 PM priscillad GRT NIKIA!
2017-07-12 06:43:42 PM jackieb92 i have priscilla, but when then when it comes meal time and they are all together they can be mean to one another
2017-07-12 06:43:46 PM cchase you set them up for failure
2017-07-12 06:43:59 PM cchase good going nicole
2017-07-12 06:44:16 PM cchase try to answer the question but do it in a way that is light hearted
2017-07-12 06:44:17 PM dominiquesow and sometimes one just ate and will come back to eat again
2017-07-12 06:44:28 PM dominiquesow ok
2017-07-12 06:44:45 PM cchase yes... they can and do forget that they just had a meal
2017-07-12 06:44:46 PM jackieb92 we even split their tables up so we have the more demetia residents at a table and it has been working so far but my cognitive residents can still be mean
2017-07-12 06:44:48 PM nicolespangler got it
2017-07-12 06:44:51 PM nikiawyche we allow them to come back and if it keeps happening we ask dining to give small portions
2017-07-12 06:45:03 PM priscillad YES, I UNDERSTAND JCKING....
2017-07-12 06:45:03 PM dominiquesow yep
2017-07-12 06:45:21 PM jackieb92 oh ya i have a resident that will bite her sandwhich turn to her neighbor to talk and look down and think we served her someone elses eaten meal
2017-07-12 06:45:21 PM jcking no. I usually let who ever wants to attend come. I'll think about that. We only have 40 residents so that's why the groups are sometimes mixed.
2017-07-12 06:45:29 PM cchase the mean behavior comes from them knowing that the more declined ones are they way they will become in a bit
2017-07-12 06:45:29 PM cynkarnes76 forgetting meals: some of our residents do that too
2017-07-12 06:45:36 PM priscillad JACKIE I MEANT...SORRY
2017-07-12 06:45:43 PM jackieb92 thats ok
2017-07-12 06:45:49 PM cchase somewhere inside they know they are going in that direction
2017-07-12 06:45:56 PM jcking I think so too. It's sad.
2017-07-12 06:46:09 PM jackieb92 thats what i think, i think they are worried they are going to get that way and it scares them
2017-07-12 06:46:10 PM nicolespangler that is so sad
2017-07-12 06:46:18 PM nikiawyche yes cchase all residents look at other and see that mirror and get afraid
2017-07-12 06:46:22 PM cchase that's why they can be mean to others more in need
2017-07-12 06:46:33 PM nikiawyche yes so true
2017-07-12 06:46:33 PM cchase yup nikia
2017-07-12 06:46:40 PM priscillad I TRY TO ENCOURAGE THEM TO HELP THE RESIDENT...SUCH AS GIVE THEM A NAPKIN, HELP WITH MOVING A DRINK CLOSER TO THEM
2017-07-12 06:46:52 PM cynkarnes76 I think that is why many of our more independent residents in Healthcare do not like attending certain activiites
2017-07-12 06:46:53 PM jackieb92 working in AL with different cognition levels nothing is worse then a resident that is starting to decline in memory looks at me and asks me if they are starting to go crazy
2017-07-12 06:46:54 PM nicolespangler I am learning so much, I never would have thought of so many things!
2017-07-12 06:46:56 PM nikiawyche IL to it to assisted and assisted do it to memory care residents
2017-07-12 06:47:04 PM cchase like I mentioned when they say someone else is lost... it's about how they feel
2017-07-12 06:47:05 PM jackieb92 oh me for sure cyn
2017-07-12 06:47:43 PM cchase I tell them that I have been to crazy and today I am in happy
2017-07-12 06:47:45 PM jackieb92 thats why i try to hold something for everyone
2017-07-12 06:47:56 PM cchase they laugh
2017-07-12 06:48:16 PM jackieb92 i tell them they arnt going crazy and sometimes i make up what im saying but it makes them feel better
2017-07-12 06:48:53 PM jackieb92 not that i make up they arnt going crazy but ill just go with the flow of you are doing wonderful or something along that line
2017-07-12 06:48:54 PM cynkarnes76 I love to laugh with my residents....
2017-07-12 06:49:14 PM cchase I have said that I do crazy to scare my kids when they do not behave

2017-07-12 06:50:19 PM jcking I know a retired AD and she said she would have people laugh for an activity.
2017-07-12 06:50:20 PM cchase the best way to help them is to give them the gift of laughter

2017-07-12 06:51:43 PM nicolespangler sometimes when I would do beathing exercises or meditation and they started laughing, I would just do silly or goofy things to keep their laughter going.
2017-07-12 06:51:44 PM nikiawyche once a week I offer a good laugh activity
2017-07-12 06:51:47 PM cchase if you give them laughter - you help them to forget where they are in life
2017-07-12 06:51:55 PM cchase what a grand gift that is
2017-07-12 06:52:23 PM nikiawyche sometimes its a movie other times a youtube video of babies laughing or animals
