Corey's Summary of a Multiple Day (6)

Yesterday was spent trying not to feel behind.  We wrote, were at work by 7:30 am, came home at 7 pm, ate, and went to bed.

At work, Anniemi helped Sr. Tess and Forest Path move toward resolution on an issue with the ancillary codes.  The other Q is trying to dominate the center by arbitrarily defining what the codes mean.  The DSP's track the individual's day by posting codes (like 9115 Current Events .50 hrs., 9121 Workshop Skills 1.5 hrs., etc.)  There are about 47 codes. 

After that Kate promised one of the DSP's we'd write up the new Goal Data Sheets.  This is how the individual's personal progress is tracked.  We're behind, because of being gone those last couple of months.  Seven individuals at 3 goals each means 35 pages just on goals, plus 28 more pages of report. This was an all day project; and is still incomplete.  

We needed to do an intake meeting.  The individual seems more ready for learning than the last intake.  Ayn says, this one has been out of programs though for a year, so is much into Spanish soap operas and slippers.  The one Sr. Tess took in slams doors, yells, hits people with balls, and in general has trouble with authority.  *G* He's on our caseload too!

Then we had a meeting with a social worker from the University in regard to another of our individuals.  There are smaller problems, but we are both watching carefully the possibility of her being abused.  There are many in the household, but in particular a brother-in-law, that is known for drinking and physical abuse of his wife.  We held this meeting in committee of our parts.

Shoot, one more thing?  The center's secretary is due next month, so the quarterly newsletter is being done early.  I always submit an article, so there was that to be doing.  I wrote it on Annuals and 30 Day meetings.

We never got to doing Qnotes, Annuals, or CARF.  We'll go in again today.
