Residents' Rights Month
|
 Residents' Rights Month is celebrated throughout the month of October. I have a wonderful Residents' Rights Bingo game available on sale for only $9 (regularly $18). The Know Your Rights Bingo Game is a fun, interactive way to teach residents' rights! You can use this game to educate residents as well as other health care workers. You receive twenty 8 1/2 x 11 Know Your Rights Bingo Cards that indicate resident rights commonly found in Long-Term Care, Adult Day Care, and Assisted Living facilities. You can either laminate your cards or place in sheet protectors for long term use.

AVOIDING BURNOUT
A-Z Tips for Recreation and Activity Professionals
Who Need a Boost! |
 Signs of burnout include: frustration, failure, despair, irritability, helplessness, exhaustion, isolation, and powerlessness. I received an email and found it to be so powerful and quite honestly, reminiscent of my own earlier experiences as an Activity Director. I worked in one facility in which I actually resigned three times! Luckily I had supportive administration who realized my resignations were related to burnout and that I needed support and guidance.
For this reason I had to address this issue further. Many Activity Directors go through times of such despair and burnout that they actually leave the profession that they used to LOVE! Sometimes we act out of impulse and resign out of sheer frustration and burnout. Please try some of these ideas BEFORE making decisions that could change your life or your career path.
