2017-10-25 06:44:22 PM cchase be a sponge and soak up all the information you can
2017-10-25 06:45:09 PM sjorgensen She leaves me a report every time she visits. I try to use her advice to make any necessary changes.
2017-10-25 06:45:12 PM kathryn1 In my case, as an A/D i pass out daily agenda every morning, it is skilled nursing nursing.
2017-10-25 06:45:28 PM cchase check your classroom page...there are good sites for you to investigate listed
2017-10-25 06:45:29 PM tcarswell55 i had a two day training for activity director so attending these chats helps me out alot
2017-10-25 06:45:43 PM sjorgensen Do you like working "skilled nursing" and "rehab?"
2017-10-25 06:45:57 PM lindsaylu85 i like skilled nursing
2017-10-25 06:46:17 PM tcarswell55 i like skilled too
2017-10-25 06:46:19 PM kathryn1 Yes, I have volunteer students come in.
2017-10-25 06:46:26 PM sjorgensen It's difficult to get skilled nursing residents to participate in activities!
2017-10-25 06:46:27 PM cchase so what is the major difference btw. LTC and Adult Day??
2017-10-25 06:46:32 PM jatkins Thanks
2017-10-25 06:46:35 PM val5 I love skilled and find folks with dementia push me to my creative limits
2017-10-25 06:46:47 PM cynkarnes76 LTC lives there and Adult goes home
2017-10-25 06:47:09 PM tcarswell55 i always offer snacks and coffee and they will come and participate
2017-10-25 06:47:12 PM kathryn1 Yes in deed. U almost have to force then.
2017-10-25 06:47:21 PM matthewc i agree val.
2017-10-25 06:47:25 PM isabel1 cynkarnes76: i echo your view
2017-10-25 06:47:44 PM sjorgensen LTC and Adult Day Care...Long Term Care is the residents' HOME...and Adult Day Care is when they go for the day, or a couple hours a day, they go home in the evening.
2017-10-25 06:48:04 PM cchase adult day participants are more able in the majority of cases. do need to be very , very busy
2017-10-25 06:48:05 PM lindsaylu85 i love dementia residents
2017-10-25 06:48:11 PM val5 If you make the program sound really exciting and you really want to do it, people sense it and will come
2017-10-25 06:48:22 PM cchase they want and demand lots of opportunities to keep busy
2017-10-25 06:48:23 PM kathryn1 Today for me was after bingp open the country story! They were like kids!
2017-10-25 06:48:28 PM tcarswell55 feed them they will come
2017-10-25 06:48:50 PM isabel1 wow, then they keep you busy ms celeste! i like that!
2017-10-25 06:48:56 PM sjorgensen If your "skilled nuring" residents are their for rehab; and they are in pain, or exhausted from P/T, what kind of in-room activities do you offer?
2017-10-25 06:48:59 PM cynkarnes76 I imagine more busy and a packed day plus more motivated and excited for the activities
2017-10-25 06:49:02 PM matthewc i enjoyed this a whole lot
2017-10-25 06:49:07 PM cchase I find the issue with food .. to entice is mostly in LTC not so much in Adult day
2017-10-25 06:49:19 PM cchase oh yes... busy..for sure...
2017-10-25 06:49:19 PM matthewc glad I have a more understanding of something I knew barely nothing about.

2017-10-25 06:49:38 PM cchase some are good to lead activities.

2017-10-25 06:50:10 PM sjorgensen Don't skilled nursing residents just want to get better and go home?
2017-10-25 06:50:20 PM lindsaylu85 we had trick or treat tonight and i loved how half the rresidents sat and ate the candy and the the other half gave it out by the hand full
2017-10-25 06:50:39 PM cchase we have 5 vans... that pick up and drop home at the end of the day
2017-10-25 06:50:45 PM isabel1 I also use Volunteers to do one to one activities with those who prefer to enjoy activities in their roms. Interviewing them to know their interests is the key
2017-10-25 06:50:51 PM cchase some families do the trips but mostly we do
2017-10-25 06:50:56 PM tcarswell55 some tell me only there for therapy and some love comeing to activities

2017-10-25 06:54:00 PM val5 When people look forward to spending the day with you and hesitate when it is time to go home...you know you have made a difference in their lives

2017-11-01 06:07:30 PM val5 Is it reversible?
2017-11-01 06:07:56 PM cchase NO - dementia r/t Alzheimer's is not reversible
2017-11-01 06:08:08 PM sjorgensen If Dementia and Alzheimer's is vascular...then you can treat the "symptoms" and possibly slow the process...but, they haven't found a cure yet!
2017-11-01 06:08:11 PM cchase this is where you come in play
2017-11-01 06:08:18 PM nikiawyche if it was the their world would be so different
2017-11-01 06:08:47 PM cchase vascular dementia is not necessarily Alzheimer's
2017-11-01 06:09:05 PM sjorgensen I hate the disease, but, learning about the brain and brain functions is fasinating to me.
2017-11-01 06:09:19 PM jatkins does it lead to it?
2017-11-01 06:09:21 PM sjorgensen Oh...thanks cchase.
2017-11-01 06:09:28 PM cchase you all can gentle encourage activities that therapeutically help them to maintain some memory for as long as possible
2017-11-01 06:09:35 PM cchase it's a big job...
2017-11-01 06:09:45 PM jessicarae sure is!
2017-11-01 06:09:50 PM sjorgensen Does more daily stimulation help???
2017-11-01 06:09:50 PM cchase you can do that through activities
2017-11-01 06:09:55 PM christie9 overwhelming sometimes
2017-11-01 06:10:19 PM nikiawyche we try to maintance as much as we can we do photo albums family memories and story books of the residents life
2017-11-01 06:10:22 PM jenniferhess2 taking them down memory lane with simple questions that jog some part of a memory
2017-11-01 06:10:22 PM val5 challenging
2017-11-01 06:10:36 PM cchase Alzheimer's is a progressive disease - there is no cure - it is not reversible
2017-11-01 06:10:49 PM jatkins our activities are fun but not so challenging
2017-11-01 06:11:15 PM cchase what is going on in the brain of alzheimer's
2017-11-01 06:11:31 PM val5 we do trivia everyday, simple for the lower functioning, very complex for some higher functioning
2017-11-01 06:11:36 PM cynkarnes76 degeneration
2017-11-01 06:11:45 PM sjorgensen It's interesting to find out what they still know and what they still recall.
2017-11-01 06:12:01 PM cchase well that is timing for that question
2017-11-01 06:12:01 PM jessicarae Basically broken messages being sent (firing but not hitting target)
2017-11-01 06:12:34 PM cchase I recently heard a debate about how much they actually know about their environment and it is astounding
2017-11-01 06:12:36 PM jessicarae In the brain
2017-11-01 06:12:44 PM cynkarnes76 I feel at a loss at nights with my dementia residents in healthcare
2017-11-01 06:12:45 PM sjorgensen Try math...addition, subtraction, even multiplication! I also like "Spelling Bees!"
2017-11-01 06:12:46 PM val5 left the chat room
2017-11-01 06:13:00 PM cchase it's like being in a fish bowl looking out but knowing that you can not communicate.
2017-11-01 06:13:18 PM nikiawyche yes very well said chase
2017-11-01 06:13:29 PM jatkins SAD
2017-11-01 06:13:34 PM cchase yes sad
2017-11-01 06:13:34 PM jenniferhess2 simple questions like tell me about your first kiss or your first day of school
2017-11-01 06:13:37 PM val5 enter the chat room
2017-11-01 06:13:46 PM christie9 It's terrile watchig them try to get heir thoughts out sometimes. The words are on the tio of their tongues.
2017-11-01 06:13:51 PM jenniferhess2 you would be surprised at their answers
2017-11-01 06:13:55 PM sjorgensen That sounds like later stages of alzheimers...early stages they still communicate; and, they still have a good sense of humor.
2017-11-01 06:14:08 PM cchase alzheimer's start some ten to 15 years in the brain before anyone knows it is attacking the brain
2017-11-01 06:14:23 PM nikiawyche yes for our residents in the late stage we use communication books
2017-11-01 06:14:42 PM val5 I find it beautiful to see how they can interpret the new world around them and find emotion in their art and song
2017-11-01 06:14:50 PM cchase Stage 1: No Impairment. During this stage, Alzheimer's disease is not detectable and no memory problems or other symptoms of dementia are evident.Stage 2: Very Mild Decline. ...Stage 3: Mild Decline. ...Stage 4: Moderate Decline. ...Stage 5: Moderately Severe Decline. ...Stage 6: Severe Decline. ...Stages 7: Very Severe Decline
2017-11-01 06:14:52 PM jenniferhess2 has anyone ever wondered why the ladies like carrying around baby dolls
2017-11-01 06:15:11 PM jatkins Their moms
2017-11-01 06:15:18 PM christie9 Soothing
2017-11-01 06:15:21 PM cchase well ofcourse...they are being the moms they used to be
2017-11-01 06:15:22 PM cynkarnes76 some revert to an earlier time
2017-11-01 06:15:28 PM sjorgensen I wonder how much they "know" what's happening to them during their decline. Can they "sense" it? Do they "feel" it?
2017-11-01 06:15:50 PM cchase check out the stages I just posted
2017-11-01 06:15:58 PM jatkins I think they know
2017-11-01 06:16:04 PM val5 these lovely people know when I am upset even if i try not to show it
2017-11-01 06:16:09 PM cchase some refer to mild - middle and late stage
2017-11-01 06:16:15 PM jenniferhess2 when i went through a dementia class they told us to make a list of things we do now and start crossing of one by one the ones we would give up first and nobody would give up motherhood
2017-11-01 06:16:22 PM cchase but they overlap and each has it's own timetable
2017-11-01 06:16:46 PM cchase ok - let's talk BRAINS
2017-11-01 06:16:49 PM val5 don't some folks skip stages, or stay in the same one for years
2017-11-01 06:16:52 PM sjorgensen One resident even said she didn't want to "live like this!" I think she knew. She may not have been able to explain it, but, she knew something was going on!
2017-11-01 06:17:08 PM cchase some 10 yrs before the brain begins to build up plaques and tangles
2017-11-01 06:17:38 PM cchase I recently heard a theory that normal brain is able to remove the plaques & tangles
2017-11-01 06:17:41 PM nikiawyche sjorgensen that when it breaks me down and I try my best to find things to keep them as happy as I can
2017-11-01 06:18:00 PM jessicarae So we all get plaques and tangles?
2017-11-01 06:18:14 PM sjorgensen I heard that the plaque in the brain is like "dental" plaque...any truth to that?
2017-11-01 06:18:14 PM cchase but we consume too much processed sugar which in turn prevents the natural removal of those plaques & tangles.
2017-11-01 06:18:34 PM pdunn60 enter the chat room
2017-11-01 06:18:35 PM cchase yup - they develo but not to the degree of Alz.
2017-11-01 06:18:44 PM cchase it is a natural process in the brain
2017-11-01 06:18:45 PM jessicarae Did not know that!
2017-11-01 06:18:57 PM jatkins WOW
2017-11-01 06:19:02 PM cchase I recently went to a siminar
2017-11-01 06:19:09 PM cchase that was the topic
2017-11-01 06:19:13 PM christie9 There are the same theories for cancer.
2017-11-01 06:19:25 PM cchase so now they believe that our food is causing dementia
2017-11-01 06:19:44 PM val5 then we can turn it around?
2017-11-01 06:19:50 PM sjorgensen So...we ALL are going to get dementia eventually??? Just by eating?
2017-11-01 06:19:55 PM jatkins and so many other diseases
2017-11-01 06:20:16 PM nikiawyche I guess that is why so many ppl are going natural
2017-11-01 06:20:26 PM nikiawyche its scary
2017-11-01 06:20:26 PM cchase a well - there is a Dr. Dale E. Bredesen who wrote the End of Alzheimer's
2017-11-01 06:20:26 PM jessicarae I have a question...Have you ever heard that mercury (like in dental fillings) can cause dementia?
2017-11-01 06:20:34 PM jenniferhess2 its sad that everything that happens to us is caused by food or drinks
2017-11-01 06:20:44 PM cchase it is about presention and reversal
2017-11-01 06:20:50 PM sjorgensen What did they call it BEFORE it was called dementia or alzheimers?
2017-11-01 06:20:58 PM cchase but it is a hard sell at this time
2017-11-01 06:21:00 PM val5 how about aluminum, i heard that was a cause
2017-11-01 06:21:16 PM cchase the disease is Alzheimer's
2017-11-01 06:21:30 PM cchase the Alzheimer's causes you to have dementia
