I love this site, there is always an idea, quiz or craft that I can use or modify for my programs.
After 35 years as an Activation Coordinator/Senior Facilitator, I am now semi-retired and running programs for individuals and small groups on Zoom (Mind Challenge/Theme Conversations & Your Story).
Love the forum idea and can see it being a real support to each other - wonderful to see the smiling faces, caring and positive attitudes that this field endangers!
Congratulations and thanks to the Golden Carers Team for a professional and well designed website that is internationally useful and user friendly!

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.

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
