2018-09-26 06:14:54 PM cchase a whole lot of activities
2018-09-26 06:15:07 PM cchase as we have a wide range of ages to please
2018-09-26 06:15:26 PM cchase average census runs about 35 to 40 per day
2018-09-26 06:15:30 PM cristinahancock I wish Texas had more facilities like this
2018-09-26 06:15:40 PM cchase but we have had some days with less
2018-09-26 06:15:51 PM cristinahancock I am in a rural area though
2018-09-26 06:15:57 PM karenfabian is there activity assistants too?
2018-09-26 06:16:03 PM cchase some are snow birds and go to warm weather in winter
2018-09-26 06:16:12 PM cchase so our census decreases

2018-09-26 06:17:48 PM cchase we went to visit them a few years back..loved the area
2018-09-26 06:17:52 PM lisabean nice
2018-09-26 06:18:00 PM cristinahancock That is awesome. How many staff members are there on average and do you have medical staff on hand
2018-09-26 06:18:07 PM cchase lisa what facility are you working in currently
2018-09-26 06:18:18 PM lisabean Rehab
2018-09-26 06:18:29 PM cchase so there are two types of ADH centers
2018-09-26 06:18:41 PM cchase a social model and a medical model
2018-09-26 06:18:51 PM cchase a social model is more like a senior center
2018-09-26 06:18:51 PM cristinahancock Interestinng
2018-09-26 06:18:58 PM cchase ours is a medical model
2018-09-26 06:19:00 PM cristinahancock Makes sense
2018-09-26 06:19:24 PM cchase I have RN's, CNA's and an Activity Director with activity assistants
2018-09-26 06:19:25 PM cristinahancock So you have medical and activities staff than
2018-09-26 06:19:34 PM cchase yes
2018-09-26 06:19:52 PM cchase all are cross trained to do personal care and activities
2018-09-26 06:20:14 PM karenfabian who does the cross training?
2018-09-26 06:20:22 PM cchase also have a PT, hairdresser, social worker
2018-09-26 06:20:23 PM lisabean cross trained?
2018-09-26 06:20:25 PM cristinahancock So what is your position there
2018-09-26 06:20:57 PM cchase Center Program Director
2018-09-26 06:21:35 PM cchase yes.. in adult day CNA and activities are able to help each other
2018-09-26 06:21:40 PM cristinahancock Sounds like fun. I have a bachelors of Science in Public Administration and will eventually get on the admin side of things
2018-09-26 06:22:07 PM cchase that will be a good career direction
2018-09-26 06:22:12 PM cristinahancock I wish our activities staff and CNA's were cross trained
2018-09-26 06:22:29 PM cchase it is required of ADH staff
2018-09-26 06:22:38 PM cristinahancock I think it would be a huge help no matter the type of facility
2018-09-26 06:22:45 PM karenfabian Is activities staff more motivated because there is more to do with personal care etc?
2018-09-26 06:22:47 PM cchase they are referred to as Direct Care Staff
2018-09-26 06:23:34 PM cchase they are more motivated in my opinion because they are not pegged into a specific role or duties
2018-09-26 06:23:44 PM cchase so they are more of a team
2018-09-26 06:23:53 PM karenfabian totally makes sense
2018-09-26 06:23:59 PM cristinahancock I could see that
2018-09-26 06:24:13 PM cchase we also do ALL the same paperwork expected of LTC records
2018-09-26 06:24:18 PM cristinahancock What is the average cost per day
2018-09-26 06:24:30 PM cchase depends on the level of care needed
2018-09-26 06:24:48 PM cristinahancock highest and lowest
2018-09-26 06:24:57 PM cchase someone very independent are charged less than someone requiring nursing expertise
2018-09-26 06:25:02 PM lisabean what is the range of costs then?
2018-09-26 06:25:28 PM cchase runs approx. $ 95 per day to $195 per day
2018-09-26 06:25:38 PM cristinahancock Our rehab and LTC facility cost 103 a day
2018-09-26 06:25:53 PM cristinahancock Wow that is kind of expensive
2018-09-26 06:25:56 PM cchase nursing care is the driving price factor
2018-09-26 06:26:09 PM cristinahancock Makes sense
2018-09-26 06:26:17 PM lisabean how many hours is that?
2018-09-26 06:26:32 PM cchase insulin, oxygen, medication mgmt. etc.
2018-09-26 06:26:41 PM karenfabian Do you still plan field trips?

2018-09-26 06:27:15 PM cchase monday through Satu.
2018-09-26 06:27:17 PM cristinahancock So you do everything a LTC facility does except nobody sleeps there
2018-09-26 06:27:30 PM cchase yes... that is correct
2018-09-26 06:27:57 PM karenfabian It must be easier to fill staff positions when you don't need overnights and sundays -
2018-09-26 06:28:00 PM cristinahancock Would you say that the cost is cheaper than your area LTC facilities?
2018-09-26 06:28:11 PM cchase we just have less hours to document because we do not have night staff to take up some of that when it's not so busy at night
2018-09-26 06:28:32 PM cchase yes. absolutely more cost effective than any LTC
2018-09-26 06:29:03 PM lisabean LTC/
2018-09-26 06:29:04 PM cchase average LTC in our area can run $11,000 to $14,000 monthly

2018-09-26 06:30:04 PM lisabean oh
2018-09-26 06:30:14 PM cchase state dept. of public health has recently devised standardize regs. like LTC
2018-09-26 06:30:25 PM cchase long term care = LTC
2018-09-26 06:30:37 PM cristinahancock That is good
2018-09-26 06:30:50 PM cristinahancock At least in my opinion it is
2018-09-26 06:30:56 PM cchase we use MDS 2.0 HC rather than MDS 3.0
2018-09-26 06:31:43 PM karenfabian Approx. How many Day Centers are in MA these days? More than 400 Nursing Homes?
2018-09-26 06:31:48 PM cchase care plans, family meeting, progress notes, participation records...

2018-09-26 06:35:08 PM karenfabian Do they need cory forms?
2018-09-26 06:35:14 PM cchase yes.. I find that they relate well to those in similar age bracket

2018-10-03 06:05:25 PM cchase give me some thoughts pls
2018-10-03 06:05:47 PM sarahaltavilla we have one, it seems to be after meals, perhaps a time he still associates with her
2018-10-03 06:05:49 PM karenfabian She has the personality that she unpacks and repacks ALL of her clothes EVERY DAY -
2018-10-03 06:05:54 PM jenniferr2018 They are looking to talk to family...or get help
2018-10-03 06:06:25 PM karenfabian Our resident wants to talk to her family all the time.
2018-10-03 06:06:29 PM jenniferr2018 Mine calls her sister 40 plus times a day
2018-10-03 06:06:43 PM nicole1 he unpacks and repacks all of his clothes everyday to and walk the hallway with all of his belongings
2018-10-03 06:06:46 PM sarahaltavilla other times a day, he speaks of her, usually no \t fi\ondly. oddly enough
2018-10-03 06:06:48 PM jenniferr2018 sister is slowly losing it
2018-10-03 06:06:50 PM karenfabian When she is sundowning, she will ask for her parents, but most of the time she wants to call her sons
2018-10-03 06:06:50 PM ibravo0788 mine talkes to her paarents all the time
2018-10-03 06:07:01 PM arutgers78 the patient misses home and since home is a safe place they will want to call.
2018-10-03 06:07:22 PM martyr58 enter the chat room
2018-10-03 06:07:30 PM jenniferr2018 "not knowing" her place now
2018-10-03 06:07:42 PM cchase you will want to learn to read the emotion behind the behavior
2018-10-03 06:07:46 PM lisabean enter the chat room
2018-10-03 06:07:56 PM cchase what emotion is she trying to express??
2018-10-03 06:08:01 PM arutgers78 or sometimes the decor, smell, texture remind of home and they want to call , there is no other place like home
2018-10-03 06:08:14 PM jenniferr2018 frustration,anxious
2018-10-03 06:08:18 PM arutgers78 or just forgetfull and wants to call home over and over
2018-10-03 06:08:18 PM ibravo0788 she is sad
2018-10-03 06:08:46 PM nicole1 sadness, scared
2018-10-03 06:08:48 PM karenfabian she doesn't seem sad, she sincerely just wants to use the phone all the time
2018-10-03 06:08:51 PM martyr58 We have residents that do that but after they are on the unit they get better.
2018-10-03 06:08:53 PM ibravo0788 so maybe find out why she is sAD
2018-10-03 06:09:18 PM arutgers78 a feeling of feel safe
2018-10-03 06:09:56 PM arutgers78 a feeling to feel loved, sad and sometimes the sadness is inside
2018-10-03 06:10:08 PM martyr58 many of our resident's families turn off the phone at night. They know if their is a real problem then the facility will call them. Our nightly movies have helped cut down on their calls.
2018-10-03 06:10:12 PM cchase express requests for family or home and need to constantly remain connected usually reflects need for safety
2018-10-03 06:10:17 PM karenfabian She has a comfy chair that she sits and holds her pocket book and waits for them to pick her up
