2018-11-28 07:02:10 PM jackiem should i do this one if i think i have already done this one?
2018-11-28 07:02:11 PM lhahn No, I work in memory care in health care.
2018-11-28 07:02:24 PM cchase up to you! more than welcome to stay
2018-11-28 07:02:26 PM karenfabian No, but interested in hearing more
2018-11-28 07:02:27 PM malloryjbean No. I run the Memory Care Activities programming in a 120 bed SNF.
2018-11-28 07:02:31 PM jackiem no but i have seen it before
2018-11-28 07:02:38 PM shelley Np, but intersted
2018-11-28 07:02:39 PM arutgers78 Not me. I work in SNF short term (3 to 3 months depends of the case)
2018-11-28 07:02:40 PM jackiem ok thanks
2018-11-28 07:02:50 PM malloryjbean I'm not very familiar with Adult Day centers.
2018-11-28 07:02:51 PM scoltey not me but worked very closely with ADH facities as a homecare and SNF social worker for 20plus years
2018-11-28 07:03:11 PM cchase so how do you imgine that LTC and adult day would be similar?
2018-11-28 07:03:29 PM malloryjbean Although, I believe we have residents in my SNF who go to a Senior Life Day Program. Is that similar?
2018-11-28 07:03:44 PM jackiem same type of care,minus the beds,or rooms to go to
2018-11-28 07:03:44 PM lhahn I would think that there would be constant programming throughout the day in both settings
2018-11-28 07:04:05 PM jackiem would probably have to keep them more entertained or active if you will
2018-11-28 07:04:14 PM scoltey The level if care is the same in that they require help with ADLs to qualify
2018-11-28 07:04:22 PM smccormick enter the chat room
2018-11-28 07:04:24 PM cchase adult day health is likely to be a bit more active than LTC
2018-11-28 07:04:25 PM karenfabian Day activities to keep residents engaged and awake so that they can sleep well at home
2018-11-28 07:04:39 PM cchase yes karen perfect!
2018-11-28 07:04:43 PM smccormick hello everyone
2018-11-28 07:04:48 PM malloryjbean I would assume that LTC and a Day setting have similar programming, but the Day setting is probably much more active and engaging.
2018-11-28 07:05:17 PM cchase the continuim of care is that elders will go from adult day to LTC as they begin to decline
2018-11-28 07:05:18 PM jackiem maybemore aides or activities assistants involved?
2018-11-28 07:05:18 PM malloryjbean Not that LTC isnt active an engaging, just that the clientele are more mobile and active
2018-11-28 07:05:21 PM scoltey Less regulations in ADH. The clients go home.
2018-11-28 07:05:21 PM karenfabian I'm thinking that Adult Day does not have an hour relaxation/rest time after lunch?
2018-11-28 07:05:22 PM shelley For adult day care it is only for how many hours
2018-11-28 07:05:32 PM arutgers78 hello
2018-11-28 07:05:51 PM cchase yes - ADH often has pts. that can lead activities on their own
2018-11-28 07:06:02 PM cchase hello arutgers
2018-11-28 07:06:20 PM shelley would adult day care , may go to basic care?
2018-11-28 07:06:32 PM arutgers78 So adult day care is just opened during day?
2018-11-28 07:06:37 PM smccormick or assisted living?
2018-11-28 07:06:38 PM scoltey In my experience ADH is a great option for people who would otherwise need SNF to to in the day. It's a cheaper option for families then paying for 8 hrs of private care.
2018-11-28 07:06:39 PM cchase ADH needs to offer a minimum of 6 hrs of programming to be elligible for state funded payment
2018-11-28 07:07:00 PM lhahn would the activity professional in and ADH setting have other roles such as dining, housekeeping or nursing?
2018-11-28 07:07:04 PM malloryjbean Oh! That's interesting! Having the pts leading activities would add an entirely different level of engagement for the patients!
2018-11-28 07:07:06 PM cchase yes - open day hours only - no beds but we do have some cushy recliners!!
2018-11-28 07:07:23 PM arutgers78 nice
2018-11-28 07:07:27 PM cchase there are different models of ADH
2018-11-28 07:07:30 PM jackiem that is good.at least they can rest if they need to
2018-11-28 07:07:48 PM cchase some centers are more akin to a senior center
2018-11-28 07:07:58 PM cchase more focus on social interactions
2018-11-28 07:07:59 PM arutgers78 the activity tag is the same for all settings?
2018-11-28 07:08:00 PM shelley how many activities need to be offered
2018-11-28 07:08:07 PM shelley ok
2018-11-28 07:08:13 PM arutgers78 like long term, day care, SNf?
2018-11-28 07:08:14 PM smccormick what role does a activity director play? do you still do planning for daily activities?
2018-11-28 07:08:27 PM cchase other centers are medical and have more regulations just like LTC
2018-11-28 07:08:39 PM jackiem do they have a requirement of the types of activities that have to be met each week?
2018-11-28 07:08:42 PM cchase activities are offered throughout the day
2018-11-28 07:08:54 PM cchase multiple are always going at the same time
2018-11-28 07:08:56 PM scoltey At least when I worked in MA there are social day care centers and ADH facilities. I imagine it may vary by state
2018-11-28 07:08:59 PM lhahn do adult day programs offer evening hours?
2018-11-28 07:09:11 PM shelley Is their a growing need for adult day care
2018-11-28 07:09:17 PM lauravillatoro1989 what kind of activities are more appropriate for that kind of setting? or can they be the same that we use in nursing homes?
2018-11-28 07:09:35 PM cchase activity director in this setting is on hands and so are all the other staff members in the medical model center
2018-11-28 07:10:06 PM jackiem im assuming many of adult day care patients are going to be more likely to hve dementia or some sort of cognitive disabilit?
2018-11-28 07:10:09 PM cchase surveyors are looking to see that ALL staff members are supporting the pts. quality of life pursuits
2018-11-28 07:10:16 PM jackiem disability
2018-11-28 07:10:22 PM cchase correct jackie
2018-11-28 07:10:32 PM jackiem ok
2018-11-28 07:10:37 PM shelley Is their a growing need for adult day cares
2018-11-28 07:10:41 PM melodywhipple enter the chat room
2018-11-28 07:10:42 PM smccormick i love the fact it is more hands on
2018-11-28 07:10:49 PM cchase now you will find adult day health centers that are more specific to Alzheimer's/dementia
2018-11-28 07:10:57 PM cchase they are specialty centers
2018-11-28 07:11:00 PM wanzaella enter the chat room

2018-11-28 07:12:59 PM cchase all part of the overall programming
2018-11-28 07:13:01 PM lhahn do adult day centers have a certain number of participants they can have per staff?
2018-11-28 07:13:02 PM jackiem if all hands are on deck,the better outcome for everyone involved
2018-11-28 07:13:07 PM shelley ok now I understand
2018-11-28 07:13:26 PM cchase yes - regulations specifies the amount of space per pts.
2018-11-28 07:13:26 PM shelley we have some of that at our LTC facility
2018-11-28 07:13:31 PM smccormick Do you have to have med techs LVNS?
2018-11-28 07:13:34 PM malloryjbean That's fantastic!
2018-11-28 07:13:36 PM jackiem better rested patients,residents not giving aides and nurses such difficulties if they are busy and engaged in activity
2018-11-28 07:13:40 PM cchase so if you want more people you need a bigger center
2018-11-28 07:14:07 PM cchase We have C.N.A.'s similar to LVNS.
2018-11-28 07:14:14 PM lhahn do participants come everyday?

2018-11-28 07:14:37 PM cchase the scope of the practice is to engage them all day so they go home to sleep at night

2018-11-28 07:22:48 PM wanzaella thanks because i wanted to learn more about it
2018-11-28 07:22:49 PM cchase some pts. enroll for three day others are attending six days per week
2018-11-28 07:22:52 PM malloryjbean We have a local company called Senior Life that does in home care as well as offered day services, therapy in their facility. It seems similar to ADH, but from what I hear, the activities they offer are not nearly as varied as what you are talking about. (I could also be wrong about their services. I only know what my residents who attend their day centers relay to me.)
2018-11-28 07:23:13 PM cchase yes.. entertainment
2018-11-28 07:23:14 PM melodywhipple are most ADH privately owned
2018-11-28 07:23:27 PM lhahn is there a budget for activities?
2018-11-28 07:23:43 PM shelley lhahn good question
2018-11-28 07:23:55 PM cchase some are a part of a larger facility
2018-11-28 07:24:04 PM melodywhipple o okay
2018-11-28 07:24:11 PM cchase some are privately owned... for profit entities

2018-11-28 07:24:52 PM wanzaella very
2018-11-28 07:24:52 PM lhahn what is the cost of these services?
2018-11-28 07:24:56 PM smccormick i agree very interesting
2018-11-28 07:25:04 PM cchase I tell my AD to put a budget that includes the standards dictated by CMS...surveyors
2018-11-28 07:25:05 PM shelley very interesting
2018-11-28 07:25:11 PM smccormick what is a normail daily cost
2018-11-28 07:25:24 PM cchase in other words. if it is required in the survey it should be in the budget
2018-11-28 07:25:40 PM cchase cost of services depends on acquity level
2018-11-28 07:25:44 PM malloryjbean Do you have any patients/clients at you ADH who do not reside at home? Do any of the residents come from an AL, PC, or LTC?
2018-11-28 07:25:44 PM arutgers78 is so hard to do activity when you dont have supplies and your budget is very low

2018-11-28 07:26:12 PM smccormick cost would difer by lever of care?
