Hi there, here in Australia as of the new changes to our Aged Care Standards put in place on 1st July, 2019, we are now having to write up plans in the first person. How is everyone going with this? I am looking at putting some sort of guide together to help and support my Lifestyle Assistants when writing up these plans. However, does anyone have something already?
Look up Centre for Cultural Diversity in Ageing in Australia. They have Cue Cards in various languages. This has helped a couple of people reverting back to their language.
Hi All, I have been asked to create an Auditing Tool for the Lifestyle Division. Our group has purchased x1 site and are building another, hence there will be x3 sites in all and I have been asked (and promoted) to look after all three. I am seeking some sort of Auditing Tool that will give me a monthly snapshot of what is occurring for people eg - how many times during the month are they going to an activity - basically how to monitor the data then create a monthly report. Any suggestions and assistance would be greatly welcomed.
I would like to thank you all for everything you've done to help people like us, giving us the new ideas and confidence to carry on doing what we do. As you must be aware it's not the easiest job in the world, especially trying to get a smile out of someone. I wish you all the possible good wishes for the future and do hope you will continue for many years to come.
