aRBeRec 0 Report Share Posted May 14, 2012 I just moved to a new facility and one thing I found odd is how diffferent their attendance policy is. I left a facility with four units but residents could chose any program top attend, so attendance was taken at each program and at the end of the day staff would mark the attendace down in the residents file. At the new facility there are six units and most activites occur on unit for their population, they do not take attendance becasue staff is consistance and they know who does what. For full house programs attendance is taken and filed incase someone needs to look back on it. What is your activty practice? Should each resident have their own activity record? or can we just keep the attendance on file "in-case"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pennie 26 Report Share Posted May 16, 2012 Does the State come and do a survey yearly? If so you need the attendance record(s) for every activity. Remember the saying if you don't write it down then it didn't happen. That is your proof. Also the attendance records help you notice if there is a possible problem with a resident. Maybe they quit coming out as much & it slipped by staff. The attenndance records would show this after a couple of missed activites.
