You too can join the conversations 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.

TOPIC FOR JUNE 21, 2019:
 Can Birds and Real Animals Improve People's Lives
More Than Meds?
 

GUEST: Brenda Hancock, NHA, Cheyenne Healthcare

 HOSTCarmen Bowman

 

Birds have been observed to “bring people back to life” by leaders in the culture change movement. Brenda Hancock is one of those who has seen positive outcomes and supported birds for residents. She has witnessed improvements that are often more significant than the outcomes of medications. In this show we’ll share the benefits of birds, how you can begin to pave the way for birds in your home and the nitty gritty details of caring for birds - including what can go wrong while making the case for birds as companions. Let’s learn from Brenda and consider whether it’s time to set aside personal staff biases and add birds to the mix as we continue to move forward in supporting residents – their wishes, their choices, and their quality of life.


 You can contribute to the discussion, too, with your questions and ideas for bringing in more Real Life!
