Hi all,

I'm just wondering what sort of paper based system you use to capture what you residents do during the day? I work in a 101 bed facility and the previous systems that were in place and others that I have tried are all very time consuming.

What works for you?

Thanks

Hi Kara, if you want to do this manually you could use a monthly sheet, one for each client, using a tickbox for each activity attended and space to record engagement, absenteeism, enjoyment. For example:

Monthly:

Daily:

Online tools can really simplify the process too. See the short video on Golden Care Tools home page to see how it works:

Hope this helps.
