The Resident Assistant has several unique features that make
it successful.
1. An advisory board of national experts in assisted living developed
the idea and regularly contribute to the publication.
2. It features a high-quality newsletter for every Resident Assistant that
serves as a professional journal. This sends a powerful message to RAs about
their value as employees. Each issue highlights a particular topic critical to
their job.
3. The facility receives a Trainer's Guide that lets Resident Services
Coordinators integrate the newsletter into training activities. Each guide
provides training tips, continuing education goals, a list of additional
resources, and a quiz for your Assistants. Used together, these tools can help
fulfill and document a facility's ongoing training requirements.
4. The Resident Assistant is written in a lively, easy-to-read style. Issues of The
Resident Assistant feature an interview with a prominent expert in
caring for older persons and a section called "Speaking from Experience"
highlights advice and tips from The Resident Assistants themselves. A
sampling of upcoming issue topics includes:
-
Improving Communication Skills
-
When a Resident Dies: Handling Grieving and Bereavement
-
Nutritional Risk and Your Residents
-
Working with Residents' Family Members
Customer Feedback
"It is a complete in-service, ready to deliver. It's very easy to use and full
of helpful ideas. The aides absolutely love it! I love it too because it really
cuts my workload."
- S. Thomas, Resident Services
Coordinator
