Join our own culture change pundit Carmen Bowman, MHS, on her monthly web talk show. Actually, it's better than a talk show because you too can join the conversation by asking questions of Carmen and her guests. Carmen's smart look at culture change focuses on a wide variety of topics. She brings an insider's view of regulations, and reports on little changes happening in government, in attitude, in practice. Each month she will share culture change news and updates, amusing and heartwarming stories, and interview a guest on a relevant and timely topic.
The Transformative Power of Purpose: Residents Serving their Communities Going beyond compliance with CMS’ new focus on the community
GUEST PRESENTERS:
Matthew Lysobey, MPH, LNHA, Rockport Chief Community Integration Officer
Peggy Fraricks resident founder, and Bonnie Jacobs, CTRS, Rockport VP Recreation and Social Services
HOST: Carmen Bowman
Residents of 80 nursing and assisted living homes regularly prepare meals and serve the homeless in their communities. We are impressed. Matthew Lysobey, developer of A Heart to Serve; Peggy Fraricks, resident founder and participant for 15 years, and Bonnie Jacobs, operational leader, will explain how Rockport Healthcare Services offers residents of their 80 homes the opportunity to volunteer on teams that give back to their communities. Regardless of their physical and cognitive challenges, all willing participants have a role in preparing and serving at the local homeless shelter, resulting in a renewed sense of purpose within themselves. Purpose reduces depression and symptoms of chronic conditions, and a National Institutes of Health study reveals that “having greater purpose in one’s life reduced the symptoms and progress of Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia.” Wow -- with those results why wouldn’t every nursing home and assisted living community do this? Moreover, it takes a home even beyond compliance with CMS’ new focus on interaction in the community in the requirements and Critical Element Pathway for Activities.
Carmen's webinars are usually held the second Friday of each month except December, and run about an hour.
