In February 2013, the Office of Inspector General (OIG) released a report entitled Skilled Nursing Facilities Often Fail to Meet Care Planning Requirements, in which they found that 26% of facilities fail to meet care planning requirements. Is your facility meeting federal guidelines for care planning? This presentation discusses the important link between the MDS 3.0, the Care Area Assessments (CAAs) and the care plan. Learn the essential components of a resident-centered care plan, how to develop a care plan that supports the clinical care that is provided to the patient, and how to proactively maintain a care plan that will meet annual survey requirements. The presentation discusses strategies for completing the CAAs more effectively, and how the CAA process can be used to create a more resident-specific care plan. Learn to develop a resident centered known as ( I careplan) through a workshop discussing different elements of the careplan, from profile, interim, and diagnosis.
1. Gain an understanding of the purpose of a Care Plan.
2. Learn to define the purpose of the discharge Care Plan and Summary.
3. Learn to to articulate the link between the MDS 3.0 assessment, the nursing Care Plan, the discharge Care Plan, and accurate RUG-IV classification.
4. Understand the the correlation between the MDS 3.0 assessment, the Care Area Assessments (CAAs), and the Care Plan.
How to care plan: when, where, how, why, who. Learm how to create person centered care plans that imporve quality of life, satisfy regulators, and make areal difference
Meaningful Use Stage Two: The Future of Care CoordinationGreenway Health
The future of Meaningful Use has many over-arching effects on the health care industry beyond Stage Two measures. Care coordination teams, technology partnerships, data capture, practice redesign, and provider assessment are a few others to be considered when moving forward.

This presentation was developed by the Texas Culture Change Coalition to serve as a tool to inform others about the background and principles of culture change in long term care.
Please feel free to use it as a whole or in part to inform others about the benefits of culture change.
The “Project Maanasi” is a mission to deliver mental health and primary care services to poor rural women and children in southern India. The goal of the program has been to provide low cost or free care to villagers, sustained outreach to those who cannot access the clinic, and educate patients and others about seeking care to improve their lives.
Person centered care models with reference to dementia care, has demonstrated positive outcomes for behavioral disturbance. This presentation will increase awareness and understanding about person-centered care for people with dementia. Discussion includes complex needs of people with dementia, leading to compromised behavioral symptoms; including non-pharmacological approaches, sleep-wake-cycle disturbance, verbal outbursts and aggression. Further discussion encompasses evidence based outcomes with the use of person centered care that focuses on preserving the "personhood" of the individual.
Quantified Wellness and Assisted LivingJustin Lawler
New digital devices allowing self-tracking of health are gaining popularity. This ‘self-monitoring’ approach is changing how health care delivery is managed, and how health related information is shared with others and used.
In this session, we will discuss issues and demonstrate technology pertaining to monitoring and evaluating wellness for older people with different levels of ability and care support, domicile in diverse community settings (home, assisted living community, residential home).
In aged care, the point of reference for monitoring, evaluating and reporting on wellness can be usefully extended to include other actors (care assistants, nurses, family members) and sensors.
Critically, wellness monitoring and evaluation should span all three pillars of wellness (i.e. physical, psychological and social).

Valuing the person and providing dignified care in Long
Term Care settings

2. The Need for Dementia Care
5.4 million Americans are living with Alzheimer’s disease
By 2050 as many as 16 million will have the disease
Alzheimer’s disease is the 6th leading cause of death in the US (4th
leading cause for African Americans)
Dementia cost the US $200 billion in 2012 ($140 billion through
Medicare and Medicaid)
Other types of dementia: vascular, Lewy body and frontotemporal
(Alzheimer’s accounts for 60-80% of all dementia cases)
(Alzheimer’s Association, 2013)
3. A Call to Action
NAPA – National Alzheimer’s Project Act, developed by HHS and
signed into law by President Obama in 2011
Affordable Care Act (2010) – Services funded by Centers for Medicare
and Medicaid (CMS) must be provided for in a person centered care
manner
Inspector General’s Office has reported an overuse of antipsychotic
medications of persons with dementia in nursing homes
CMS has launched education initiative to reduce antipsychotic
medications in nursing home residents

4. Current Review
• Does the Implementation of Person-Centered Care as a
Standard of Long Term Care Demonstrate a Mutually
Beneficial Outcome Between Staff Performance and
Resident Response
• Methods:
• Key Words – Alzheimer’s disease, personhood, person-centered
care, dementia and long term care
• 46 relevant articles
• Included 29 in review
5. Assessments & Training
Assessments:
• Dementia Care Mapping (DCM)
• Person-Centered Assessment Tool (P-CAT)
• Personhood in Dementia Questionnaire (PDQ)
• Hierarchy Model of Needs in Dementia (HMND)
Training:
• VIPS Communication Skills Training
• Validation Therapy (VT)
6. Ground Floor Players
• Tom Kitwood: Dementia Reconsidered: The Person
Comes First
• Need Driven Behaviors & Validation Therapy
• Dementia Initiative: The Dementia Chasm “White Paper”
Pioneers:
• Eden Alternative
• Greenhouse Initiative
• Pioneer Network
9. Core of Person Centered Care
Each individual has:
• Life experiences
• Beliefs
• Interests
• Character
• And continues to
experience life
(Buron, 2008)
Key concepts:
• Person is not their
dementia illness, but the
condition is only one part
of their current
experience.
• Carers must “enter the
world” of the person with
dementia to interpret
need, thus the drive
behind the behaviors.
11. Inactive Person Centered Care
Resident is
agitated and
repeatedly tries to
open front door
Staff chemically
or physically
restrain resident
Resident is
apathetic and
resists activity
Staff ignore
resident due to
his silence
Resident
becomes
aggressive in
the evening
Resident is
given a
sedative
12. Hierarchy of Needs in Dementia
(HMND)
Self Actualization
Being useful
Freedom
Meaningful
Esteem Needs
Self esteem/self image
Responsibility
Privacy
Belongingness and love needs
Affect attachment, social contact
Enjoyment of activities
Safety Needs
Security, financial situation
Biological and physiological needs
Basic life needs, physical and mental health
Scholzel-Dorenbos, (2010)
Consequences of unmet need:
Unmet goals of patients & caregivers
Behavioral symptoms
Increased caregiver burden
Decreased health-related
quality of life
Institutionalization
Higher one
is on
pyramid,
the fewer
behavior
responses
13. Need Driven Behavior (NBD)
• “Behaviors” stemming from expression of a need
• Behaviors can originate from unmet biological, psychological, social
or spiritual needs
• Common to treat the behavior and not the underlying problem
(restraints or removal)
• If originating need is unmet, or if need is under-evaluated and
mistreated, cascading effects can occur
• Unmet needs can cause aggression, repetitive movements, verbal
outbursts, apathy, withdrawal (the “behaviors”)
(Kovach, 2005)
14. NDB Examples (Kovach, 2005)
Thirst
• Primary need – fluids
• NDB 1 – repetitive movement
• Outcome of unmet need–
constipation & abdominal
discomfort
• Secondary need – increased
fiber & stool softener
• NDB 2 - aggression
Circadian Disturbance
• Primary need – activity/rest
schedule, light/dark therapy
• NDB 1- sundowning with
calling out
• Outcome of unmet need –
social ostracism
• Secondary need – increased
socialization
• NDB 2 – repeated
apprehensive queiries
15. Validation Therapy (VT)
Knowing an individual and meeting that individual’s
needs…
“Using empathetic listening, emotional and physical
mirroring and therapeutic touch to join the person with
dementia in their own reality.” (Parkinson, 2008 p.210)
http://youtu.be/QFKcPGZkuQ4
Naomi Feil
16. Utilizing Validation Therapy
Resident calls out same time of day,
“Somebody help me! Somebody help me!”
Person centered care response:
Staff:
“It sounds like you are afraid, is that how you
feel right now? I am here with you, and
everything is all right. What can I do for you to
help?
By knowing this resident, staff realizes that she
is reacting to finding husband had died in their
bed 20 years ago. Due to symptoms of
dementia, she relives that trauma.
17. Person Centered Care Assessment
and Training
Dementia Care Mapping
• “Mapper” tracks resident
responses and activities
• Two code documentations:
• Behavioral Category Code (BCC)
• Well/ill-being (WIB)
Review of 34 DCM studies:
BCC – watching, eating, drinking
Low WIB – withdrawn, repetitive
action
High WIB – creative activity,
exercise, media engagement
Provides feedback to staff
(Brooker, 2005)
VIPS
• V – value
• I – individual
• P – perspective
• S – social environment
Study of 26 staff in 4, 1-hour
sessions:
Education, group exercises, role
playing sessions, vignettes
6-week post assessments:
Staff spent more time engaging
with residents
More interactive leisure activities
(Passalacqua, 2012)
18. Useful Assessments;
Training Programs Needed
Training Programs
PDQ
P-
CAT
DCM
Person-Centered Care Assessment
Tool (P-CAT)
Evardsson (2009)
• 13-item measure assessing PCC
• Evaluates personalization of care
• Organizational support
• Degree of environmental accessibility
Personhood in Dementia Questionnaire
(PDQ)
Hunter (2013)
• Identifies areas needing implementation
of personhood decision making
• Useful for developing institutional strategies
of PCC
19. Summary
• NDB and VT are ground floor understandings and
techniques for person-centered care
• VT and VIPS are valid and reliable training models to
increase staff understanding of personhood and person-
centered care in long term care settings, thus valuing the
resident and his/her needs
• DCM, P-CAT and PDQ are valid assessments for long
term care and can evaluate person-centered care
methods and performance
22. Barriers to Implementation of PCC:
• High staff turnover – CNA turnover rate is ~ 65%
• Turnover rate can cost $250,000 - $400,000 annually
• Few discretionary funds for PCC training
However, research has shown that successful PCC training
and efforts for sustainability increase job satisfaction and
retention of staff, and decrease resident behaviors and
prescribed antipsychotic medications.
(Buron, 2008)
23. Recommendations towards PCC
• Dementia leadership launch a
nationwide campaign (breast
cancer movement) across
research, policy and practice
sectors for programs designed
at training, implementation,
education and sustainability.
www.ccal.org/national-dementia-
initiative/white-paper
• Research – validate reliable
gold standards of PCC training,
implementation and
sustainability based on holistic
dimensions
• Policy – Educate
administrators, government and
healthcare sector leaders on
effectiveness of PCC
• Practice – sustainability in long
term care, hospitals, home
health care throughout all
levels of care
