Our memory unit just shifted to a 1:6 aide-to-resident ratio after 5 p.m., and I’m seeing rushed toileting and missed cueing at supper that chip away at dignity. For those who’ve gotten leadership to restore 1:3–1:4, what staffing language or fall/elopement data moved the needle in your job proposals or evaluations?
Show a 5–9 p.m. falls/toileting-time run chart + ‘missed cues’; cite CMS F725/F689 (https://www.cms.gov/files/document/appendix-pp-state-operations-manual.pdf), @RiskMgmt.
And @natalie_92 Pilot 1:4 5–9 p.m. two weeks; track ‘missed cueing,’ intake%, WanderGuard alerts — dietitian co‑sign?
