BACK-TO-BASICS

Resident-Staff
(Back-To-Basics)

---I see it this way. We beef up the Staff-Resident Communication. All Residents, now, go to their IDT. They participate in their own Care Plan.
---At IDT, the Resident comes away with 4 or 5 needs and preferences that he has come to terms with Care Team about. They are his goals or situations he will work on.
---His immediate Providers are aware of needs and preferences, and will work with Resident on acheiving his goals. This is Residents participation in own Care Plan, and ALL working with him. They are ALL on same page.
---Provider is anyone working with Resident on goals. They are usually part of or directed by the IDT. For example, CNA is well aware of Residents Needs and Preferences, and agrees to work toward acheiving goals, through willingness and ability to do this. This should be very recovery oriented.
---Resident Centered Care is the working on the N's and P's of Resident to relieve stresses, etc. Don't forget that the N's and P's have been ''GENERATED,'' in IDT. Should ALL be geared to gains in positivity of Resident, and dovettail into his happiness.
