Care of residents

school, when I applied at a local nursing home, and was hired as a dietary aide in the Alzheimer’s and Dementia unit. Through my job, I discovered a hidden desire to help others, through the shortcomings I witnessed there and my interactions with residents. On the very first night of work, I learned that no one paid much mind to me. I was just a kid who came I went throughout the night, working both on the third floor unit as well as the main kitchen downstairs. I got the privilege of seeing how…

With that said we did a level four activity with a group of residents. There was no possible way a couple of our residents were going to participate. After speaking with Terrie, I now feel bad that I did not plan an activity with my resident. From her life story I learned that she does like music and she does watch TV on the weekends. Now that I have a better understanding of the concept of the BATF…

monotonous and rigid structure commonly found in nursing homes today. Above all else, St. John’s has returned to their residents two of life’s pleasures often take for granted, autonomy and the freedom to make choices.

Admittedly, this model is not void…

Having skills and ways of covering these different ways of learning can decrease risks for more serious problems later. The overall outcome for the presentation and paper are the middle and late adults having the ability to correctly understand, use and benefit from…

the students. These “assistants”, more commonly known as CA’s, obviously do not care about the students’ concerns, doing such things as rolling their eyes or scoffing at them, and even go as far as ignoring the students when asked for assistance. Their responsibilities consist of holding events in the lobby, holding events in coordination with other groups on campus, petulantly dealing with their building’s residents (including their personal conflicts), sitting at the desk all day, staring into…

I wanted to explore seeing ways I can offer my services for those within this population before taken such action. I honestly wasn’t sure how I was going to be able to apply doing “inform scientific inquiry” without knowing how to do this in an effective way or back up the information I had gathered. So overall, what I had thought about this competency was that I had…

neighbors, and everyone spoke English. This was before the mid-1980’s became a large resettlement location for refugees, because of affordable housing, and access to jobs in Atlanta. By the year 2000, the census showed that one third of Clarkson’s resident were foreign born officially classifying it a super diverse community. Clarkston is now looked at for examples of the struggles and successes of a super diverse community trying to come together. This hardship is mainly outlined in the book…

opportunity the past two years to serve the Monmouth College community by being a residence life staff member. I have many assets that have contributed to the success of Grier Hall recently and would make good use of the opportunity to serve the residents as their HR. I enjoy working with new students at Monmouth College and aiding and encouraging them to become leaders on this campus as well. I have fine-tuned my skills and have become a respected authority within the hall while remaining…
