Hello there everyone!

Our residents are frequently exhibit a significant change which triggers a CAA, the CAA worksheet, really focus (to me) if there is a new admit that triggers in Activities. So here is the questions:

1, Example CAA for a S/C on an existing resident.

2. CAA fro new resident that triggers for Activity.

Here is an article you can read

Look at this article too especially numbers seven through 10

I think you need to give a resident a few weeks to settle in before seeing if the CAA is necessary
However you need to follow the guidelines of your facility
I have found thatCAAs are not necessary that often

Thank you so much for allowing us to share all the wonderful ideas that are on Golden Carers. It is so helpful, inspiring and they give our residents so much fun and the feeling of achievement once we have completed them. It is great that we can spread the days out and do a lot over time rather than in one session. THANK YOU ALL
