Hello, Has anyone ever heard of a "roving" resident council? The MDS 3.0 Care Plan Cookbook references one under the approaches section for Isolation Medically Necessary (page 96). We are a small facility, and the residents aren't really interested in the Resident Council. "Roving" might solve the problem, but I'm not sure exactly what it is, or if it's even allowed.
Hi Maria, I am afraid I have never heard the term. It could mean that it is movable or ambulant; still, I could not explain how it would work. I'll let you know if I find out.
I have been in this field for close to 15 years. I came across your website initially because I was searching for a shared, personal forum with other professionals in my field that was not attached to random advertising and monthly fees. After discovering your website which hosted a forum that was exactly what I was looking for, as well as providing a mountain of resources that didn’t require you to follow several external links to get to, and to top it off no monthly recurring fee...Jackpot!
