management tells me we need tick sheets, not sure if its a legal requirement for accreditation but do as I am directed, I hated the old ones which had numbers 1 no participation 2 passive participation 3 participation with support. MM all high care residents need support one way or another therefore I felt it meant nothing, so I changed over to this way. I find it is has more meaning for high care as many residents sit and listen to trivia, music etc and engage in their own little way, you just need to be observant. thanks for sharing this.
Does anyone know of a way to convert the Daily attendance form from a PDF file to microsoft word file? I cant seem to use the forms because they are in pdf. Thanks
Hi We actually dont need attendance records for the purpose of accreditation. I find this type of roll call formula really un person centred. We focus on having Activity Memberships where people including residents, staff and family can sign up for activities more appropriate and take care to evaluate activities every month.
with our daily participation sheets there is space to comment on residents response etc. I like your sheets but do we need that extra bit of information for accreditation purposes. appreciate every thing you do

You're quite the special angel here to assist everyone. It takes a special kind of person to deal with seniors - they are not given the respect or credit they so deserve to have lasted this long on this earth. To have witnessed such history is amazing. So many are forgotten about and I try everyday to share RAOKs (Random Acts of Kindness) with any person I see that could use it - thank you again for the great ideas which I hope to spread around the area to help make others know how special they are.
