I put some comments down in the previous post! If you are not clicking and reviewing this tool with more information on facilities… you are missing it!!! Facilities- I try to visit where I can, even if I don't have a patient. I want to know the options… And if a hospital Case Manager gives someone a list, please tell them they absolutely need to go SEE it… listen, smell and talk to the residents.

This is great tool! I have looked up many of the ALF and memory care units in my area with the state board before touring. People would be astounded by how many «5 star» Google reviewed facilities have multiple fines, deficiencies, and complaints listed with AHCA, many of which are still open or are detrimental to people already living there. Thank you for sharing this tool, would love to see SW Florida included

This is SO on target! I am sorry I hadn't made it to this post earlier!
I fully agree with your post and the need for choices and autonomy of the patient. They are still a person! Though my dad made it to 95, his cognitive ability was better than most 20 years younger then he… with a very mild cognitive deficit that frankly most see in their 60s. He was still mobile and could participate in life. His biggest issues were his hearing -which isolates people- so I was able to get him fitted with hearing aides that helped. However, his O2 hose- that was the enemy. (ie falls) Some of the family felt a nursing home would have been best, it likely would have not stopped the falls, but it would have broken his spirit.

Often we need to ask, best for whom? No judgement, but if it isn't best for family, then look at it as a challenge to find what is best for both...patient and family. Break up tasks, enlist a friend or neighbor or maybe a day program a couple days a week can break things up. Doing a placement and then watching someone going downhill and lingering at a facility is even more difficult, in my humble opinion. Then- family stops visiting. That is very heavy for everyone. It «takes a village» is true here as well.

Assisted living inspection reports are managed by the states. I will be connecting my free tool to all states in the future but it takes some time! Right now, I have CA and AZ. Comment below with the state you would like to see next. I am really excited about the plain language summary of deficiencies from the tool. Have you guys tried it yet? How can I improve it?

What is «vibe coding?»

Yes, I'm interested in feedback! Try it out and let me know what worked, didn't work so well, which features should be added! My goal is to create useful, no/low-cost tools for the important work patient advocates do!

Has anyone tried this out?

THANKS fo rsharing!

also — there is a NAHAC webinar around GLP1s this week:

Thanks so much for sharing this, Renea!

Thanks for sharing!

AI won’t replace patient advocates. But advocates who use AI will replace those who don’t. You don't need to become a tech genius, you just need to know how to use these tools securely, ethically, and efficiently to protect your time and your practice.

My course, «AI? Piece of Cake,» is built specifically for our profession with zero fluff and straight-to-the-point workflows. Bonus: it earns you 2.0 JEDI CE credits. You'll also qualify for Sonoran Wayfinders' digital badge, Responsible AI Advocate.

Renae, thanks so much for sharing this informative pst. I hope others will ask questions or share what's working for them!

Thanks for generously sharing a free article. Although I do not plan to sit for the exam, I appreciate all your hard work. Best wishes.

This is SUCH a powerful topic. Thank you for bringing it forward here and for sharing your podcast. I look forward to listening to it in the near future.
