Submitted by Rhonda Wiles, RN in the Quincy Office
I heartily second the praise of the IT staff (by Deb Nowak). It is frustrating and easy to get frazzled working with the equipment and system flaws, problems and limitations. Ray has always been knowledgeable and calm. I can trust his advice. Carol and John, I have less experience with them but they are also knowledgeable and calm.
Submitted by Catherine Frasco, Rehab Services Manager in the Leominster Office Kudos to Shirley Lucier, WOCN, in the Leominster office for her dedication to educating our clinical staff at every opportunity. She presents short, meaningful, and informative power point presentations at each case conference and staff meeting! She is an invaluable resource to our field clinicians and agency.
Submitted by a resident at New Horizons for Dieumene Nestor, CHHA This young lady appeared on time, promptly emptied trash, refilled track basket with another plastic bad, made my bed, and had me in my wheelchair ready for breakfast all in 5 minutes. Best of all, she re-appeared, ready to return to me promptly. Submitted by Jane Shea, Office Nurse in the Charlestown Office I would like to recognize the following clinicians for stepping up and helping the SEN team this week. I want them to know that their efforts are greatly appreciated. I would like to thank: Renee Scott Packard PT; Jessica Dimenna, RN; Mamie McCarthy, RN; Lisa McNeil, RN; and Maryann Palizzolo, RN who all stepped up and took SOC's or ROC's to help cover some of the SEN teams 11 uncovered visits on February 25 and 26. These clinicians literally went well out of their way to provide superior service to our patients. Also, a shout out to Barbara Buczynski, RN and Angela Kelly, PT who helped coordinate this inter-office coverage. It really does take a village of effort at times.
Submitted by Robin Wilson, Palliative Care Program Manager
I wanted to contribute to honoring an outstanding employee.
Mary Downs is an admin assistant here in Woburn and in addition to her regular work, she works 10 hours a week helping with our Palliative Care Team. I want to send Kudos and gratitude for her going above and way beyond this past week while I was out ill. She kept things organized, timely, and kept the team on top of their game while I was out. This team could not function without her hard work and dedication and I wanted to thank her for her outstanding commitment to Palliative Care. Thanks!!
Submitted by Laura Lawrence, Administrative Assistant at New Horizons
Kristy Isaac assisted a resident who was having difficulty breathing. The resident was extremely anxious and did not want to go to the emergency room for evaluation. The resident kept saying she did not want to go. Kristy knelt down next to her wheelchair to speak with her. Kristy was able to calm the resident down which lessened her anxiety, so that by the time the EMTs arrived the resident was able to listen and speak with the EMTs about her condition and they went to the ER for medical evaluation. It was amazing to watch how gently and compassionately Kristy was able to communication with this resident. Submitted by Stacy Campbell, RN in the Needham Office I was speaking with patient M. Danis who was almost in tears saying how grateful she was and how amazing all of the nurses have been and how great Cheryl Campbell was. Submitted by Cindy MacHenry, Clinical Manager at the Tippett and de Rham Hospice Homes
I wanted to publically thank Dave Hanley from the IT department. He exemplified true service excellence last Friday (2/19/16). The staff brought it to my attention that (again) patients could not connect to the wireless at the Tippett home and the wireless in general was "not working". Lots of patients and their families depend on the wireless to Skype, play games, and family members still need to connect to their work. There is one young patient in particular that only agreed to come to Tippett if he could play his games, but this was not happening for him. When I brought the issue to the attention of George Richardson, he acknowledged the problem and sent Dave over to the house. Dave had come from Southborough and I am sure had a multitude of things on his to do list-this problem not being one of them. Dave and I were there until after 7pm, but he, along with the assistance of many who he communicated with on the phone finally resolved the issue-making for a very happy patient! He also found the time to install a new printer for me that had arrived, which meant so very much as it is the only place I can print and have been without for about a month, despite the intense repairs that Eric Bromberg tried to do several times. Thank you Dave for handling all that you did that day with a smile all the way-it meant a lot.

I am very pleased to share the news that Denise Murphy has accepted a Patient Services Manager position in the Quincy office. Denise will be the new manager for the MSW Team. Staff are excited to know they will be working with Denise as she brings her hospice and quality expertise back to the adult team.

Pets and Patient Visits
By Adele Pike, Director of Education
The Agency takes employee safety very very seriously. We are concerned because we are seeing an increase in the number of clinicians who have been bitten by patients' dogs. So, this is a reminder. When patients sign the consent for service on admission one of the things they are agreeing to do is to provide a safe environment for VNA clinicians. A safe environment includes ALL pets being secured behind closed doors in a room away from where care is being delivered. We've heard from clinicians that they have encountered adorable puppies and kittens, dogs and cats, snakes and alligators, ferrets, goats, and miniature horses in patients' homes. No matter how cute or friendly, no matter how much of an animal lover a clinician is ---pet behavior is unpredictable when a stranger is touching their owner. No matter how cute or friendly the pets are---the rule is the same: they need to be secured away from the care area.

HHA Corner
By Elaine Buckley, Patient Services Manager
This article is for VNAB clinicians
When a patient is being discharged from the agency and they have a HHA it is imperative that the primary clinician notify the HHA Department of the discharge so that they may cancel the aide from any further visits. Unfortunately, some clinicians have accidentally missed this step. Recently we have had to write off an unusually high number of HHA visits. This is not only a financial problem but it puts the agency at risk by having a HHA from our agency in the home unsupervised.

Mantoux Testing in February/March
By Beverly Salate, Wellness Manager
BEGINNING IN 2016 ALL MANTOUX TESTING WILL BE IN FEBRUARY/ MARCH...MARK YOUR CALENDARS!! Please note that some dates have changed.
Wellness will be doing Mantoux testing for all licensed clinicians around the first quarter OASIS education sessions. This is a change for both VNAB and VNACN. We will be in each office 1-hour before the session starts and will stop 5 minutes before the program begins. We will also be available 1-hour after the program to administer Mantoux. We cannot plant a Mantoux on a Thursday, as staff would have to come in on the weekend to have it read, so I have added additional sessions in a few of the offices that are not around OASIS sessions. Wellness will also be available 2 days after the Mantoux is planted to read the results All licensed clinicians are required to have a yearly Mantoux (or complete a positive reactor's form). Mantoux can be safely given 7 days apart and it is recommended that pregnant women be tested as well. Questions? Contact Beverly Salate at 888-663-3688 ext. 5603 or bsalate@vnacarenetwork.org.
