Cooking for One

By on August 21, 2014 in Food/Cooking/Nutrition Topics

Hello out there!

I just received this handy cookbook from Hospice of Michigan.

Hospice of Michigan A Meal For Me Cookbook

It is quite extensive and obviously for those who have recently or maybe not so recently lost. It also contains some nifty quotes that may be comforting.  Example: “Laughter is free, legal, has no calories, no cholesterol, no preservatives, no artificial ingredients, absolutely safe.” Kind of nice. Maybe you can use it, maybe one of your residents can use it. Recipes rule.

Peace.

What Is Social Work?

By on July 11, 2014 in Company News, Hannan News

Attached is an article entitled, “What is Social Work?”  This article discusses the new definition of Social Work being voted on by The International Federation of Social Workers and the International Association of Schools of Social Work.  Interesting to read the definition from 1957 and compare it with the proposed definition of today.

Copy/Paste Treatment Plans from Word to AASC Progress Note

By on June 11, 2014 in Reference Information, Templates for Documentation

When I write longer treatment plans, I prefer to use Word, then copy and paste it into a progress note. The only problem is that AASC online converts it to a jumbled mess! Pangea says they are working to correct this and hope to have a remedy soon. Meanwhile, Pangea suggests using Notepad (in the Dell Start menu) because it makes a much cleaner progress note.
Update: Pangea did a great job adapting their program so now we can copy from Word, no problem!!
