“De-scheduling”
• Honoring each individual’s choices, desires and unique needs
• Individualized pace leads to better care
• With a good night’s sleep and a good morning, you feel better all day
• Organizing services around residents’ norms helps with clinical interventions
Clinical Benefits:
• Just going by the resident’s schedule has resulted in better sleep, nutrition, moods, and other outcomes.
• homes have been able to catch clinical problems sooner, while they are still at an early stage
• they have a wider array of ways to treat clinical concerns

A Good Night’s Sleep
Interrupting Sleep Every Two Hours
• Turning on lights, physically checking for incontinence and probably talking too loud
• Contributed to residents then attempting to get up
• Generating falls
Two tracks
• the care planning process through which we determined each resident’s individual patterns
• a personal understanding where we talked about how none of us would want to be disturbed while sleeping
How we did it
• Conducted a bladder assessment for each resident
• Night shift documented the patterns for each resident during the night
• Looked at their sleep-awake times and incontinence.
• Dedicated staff assignments, which enhanced the resident-specific knowledge of the staff
Toileting Plan for Each Resident
normal waking, sleeping, and voiding patterns of each resident so that the night staff could follow their patterns and do individualized rounds.
Goals
• to maximize bladder care
• to maximize sleep
Summary
• By moving to consistent assignment your staff know your residents better and can individualize care.
• by changing your systems for meal service you’re able to provide breakfast when people wake up
• individualized bladder assessments
Instead of waking people all night long, your staff are tending to residents when they need care and making sure they are able to sleep the rest of the time.
Leadership Process
• talking things through
• addressing people’s concerns,
• then putting systems in practice to support individualized care.

Fewer Falls: Individualize bladder care
• You know when people need to go to the bathroom.
• You don’t have people trying to get out of bed unassisted because they have to go.
• Now staff are aware of each resident’s voiding patterns and we’re able to get to the residents before they might try to get out of bed on their own.
Fewer Falls: Know Each Resident
• why they are trying to get out of bed, and we try to anticipate their individual needs
• which residents might be hungry when so we are there when they normally start to awaken and are ready to guide them to where they can eat
Fall Prevention at Night
Understanding a resident’s needs and patterns and being alert to meeting their needs.
Spontaneity
Knowing residents
and relating to them individually
Alarms at Night
• Disturbing people
• Creating Agitation
• Disrupting Sleep
• Creating Anxiety
• Startling Residents
When you individualize care, you minimize the need for alarms
Mornings
Suppositories
Surveys
• Because of the changes, the resident's in the facility have had better outcomes.
• When you have residents who are sleeping better and eating better and feeling better, you naturally have positive outcomes.
• The survey findings reflect that.
Food service
Two Points
• People who didn’t communicate before are communicating now.
• The pace has changed. You’ve slowed down so now you’re at the resident’s pace. By changing how you deliver the food, you’ve changed how people are able to eat it and enjoy it!

Physical Restraints: Serious Potential Negative Outcomes
• Can cause declines to residents’ physical functioning and muscle condition
• Can cause contractures, increased incidents of infections and development of pressure ulcers, delirium, agitation, and incontinence
Potential negative impact on residents’ psychosocial well-being
• Residents can experience loss of autonomy, dignity, and self-respect, and may show symptoms of withdrawal, depression, and reduced social contact
• Can reduce independence, functional capacity and quality of life
“Behaviors” Communicate a resident’s needs
• ‘what is the resident trying to tell me?’ rather than with “how can I get them to stop?’
• The communication of a resident who screams or repeatedly calls out at night may be “I’m cold, afraid, in pain, confused, alone.”
The restraint becomes unnecessary
• By better understanding the resident’s behavior, staff can often anticipate needs or change the environment or their own behavior.
• By changing the environment, the challenging behavior often goes away.
Risks of a Fall
• Physical restraints contribute to unstable gait by leading to loss of muscle strength.
• The medications residents take may cause unsteady gait or lightheadedness when they stand.
• The challenge of wandering is to insure a safe place to walk and a good pair of shoes.
Agitation: Address the source
• Residents who exhibit what we call agitated behaviors are generally expressing that something is wrong – often times it’s an expression of pain or discomfort.
• They may want simply to stay in bed, or get out of bed.
Our institutional routinesoften induce agitation
When we tune in and have a consistent caregiver and know
each person, we will likely reduce the agitation.
Restore Normalcy
What we have known for a long time in terms of eliminating behavioral problems is that if you go with people’s basic nature, their frustrated behaviors diminish or go away.
Clinical Depression
Restoring efficacy, that is the resident’s belief that what they do makes a difference, aids in recovery from depression

To reduce risk of getting depressed and improve outcomes in treating, we must enhance relationships and personal efficacy through:

Question 11: “Is it possible for staff and residents to dine together?”
There is a direct link between our emotional well-being
and our physical well-being
Consistent, supportive relationships, individualized care
and personal efficacy are key ingredients
not just to mental health but also to physical health.

Case Study
Ann Cleary is 95 years old with a history of heart disease, diabetes mellitus and severe peripheral vascular disease.
She weighs 98 pounds and is 5’0” feet tall and, by the way, she also has dementia.
Mrs. Cleary scoots around the facility in her wheelchair, using her left foot to propel herself. Her right leg is amputated above the knee.
When staff attempt to reposition her, she refuses and says “Leave me alone, will ya”?
She eats small amounts of finger foods, spits out most of her pills, and is hard to slow down because of her activity level.
Prior to her residence at the nursing home, she was an avid gardener and enjoyed spending time in the park.

Our question is:
How do we:
• build on her strengths
• promote her mobility and
• support her natural inclinations?
Optimally what we want is to support
her own natural shifts in her body weight
that relieve pressure as she feels it.

Making it Happen –
Barriers and Strategies
Talking it Through
• Talk it through, not to force them, but to hear people’s concerns and address their fears.
• You heard people’s thoughts on how to go forward and you took the time to have people think through how their fears and concerns could be addressed.
one step at a timeand each success
opened up new possibilities
Lessons
• positive energy unleashed by the changes
• Even though people had initial fears, it doesn’t sound like any of them would go back to the old ways
• talk things through, to let people get used to an idea, and to be able to help shape how to go forward
