This Volume contains multiple Caregiver Activity Lesson Plans and templates.. This Caregiver Activity Lesson Plans book was written by R.O.S. Therapy Systems and approved by the National Association of Activity Professionals which has been the quality of life authority for long term care settings since 1982. Each Lesson plan - whether used for Activities of Daily Living or Leisure Activities - are meant as general guidelines and suggestions and do not guarantee success. Every person has his or her own unique physical / cognitive abilities and needs. How a participant responds to an activity will dictate how the Activity Leader will continue to modify or adapt a Lesson Plan to meet individual participants' needs and abilities - now and in the future. The Lesson Plan should be ever-changing. It is meant to be written on and to note the changes you may have made from the original plan so that the next person working with the participant can follow your modifications with the goal of recreating positive experiences. Information included in each Lesson Plan from R.O.S.: Date: Document the date the activity is used with the senior Program Name: Activity name Objective: To provide meaningful, purposeful activities that will engage participant Materials: Suggested materials/resources to use with this program Prerequisite Skills: Physical skills/abilities a senior should possess for a program Activity Outline: Step-by-step instructions to complete the program Evaluation: A thorough evaluation is the most important part of the Lesson Plan. When conducting an activity with the senior, record any verbal cues, assistance, or modifications to incorporate into the activity. It is also helpful to include the senior's response to the program. Note if the senior dislikes a certain activity and won't ever be interested in engaging in this activity in the future. Note programs that are successful at distracting or eliminating a negative behavior (diversion activities). Encourage family members and caregivers to use the evaluation section and also leave tips. Don't waste time recreating the wheel of knowledge; pass on the information so everyone presents the program in the same way with the same modifications and cueing, and achieving the same positive outcomes.
