Rhythms of Daily LivingRhythms of Daily LivingThe core of RDL is the opportunity to exercise choice –

residents’ for how they choose to live their day and staff choice for care delivery. This creates a collaborative coalition of residents and caregivers working together in a living environment. RDL facilitates the delivery of care, the experience of living and the dignity of self-determination.

RDL is a management principle that aligns the natural rhythms of residents and the support they need. The organizing principle of RDL is that people should be able to make meaningful choices in their daily lives – on their own or with assistance. RDL relies on caregivers to help define and achieve outcomes that balance individual choice and system efficiency.

Assessment Points for RDL ImplementationStages are defined against the requirements of: Administration: fiscal, management and leadership

considerations Regulatory: compliance criteria (grouped by clinical and

operational considerations) Systems: software programs, forms, policy & procedures,

protocols Personnel: staffing requirements, training, HR. The impact

on each care disciplines is identified by department PP&E: Property, Plant & Equipment necessary to perform

the tasks and functions

STAGES of RDL Readiness GAP Analysis

Establish clear understanding among all constituents (residents, staff and administration) as to the program impact on 6 principle areas.

Culinary Capacity Establish a servery on the resident floor where all meals can be finished, plated and served.

Individualized Service Establish a service program without the tray system. Meals are plated in the servery when the resident is in the

dining room. Choice is based on pre-ordered menu items, however time of service is not flexible. Point of Service Menu Choice

Establish the opportunity for the resident to choose alternate items from a menu during meal service. Schedule Choice I[1]

Establish the opportunity for residents who are self-sufficient and independent to dine at a time of their choosing, within established service times.

Schedule Choice II Establish the opportunity for residents who require assistance with dining but are able to determine when they

would like to dine to do so within established service times. 7. Venue Choice (If Appropriate)

Establish the opportunity for residents to choose alternate places to dine.

[1] Schedule choice is the last and most difficult stage to implement because it affects the scheduling of all resident activities from bathing to medication and activities.

Strategy MappingAs dining options and service evolution and enhancements are

discussed, specific initiatives are defined and envisioned by community leadership, community constituencies, department management and staff. As these new “dining experiences" and expectations are defined, mapping aligns resources from vision to strategic objective to tactical implementation assuring effective implementation and benefits.

Drs. R. Kaplan and D. Norton present this process in Strategy Maps. The mapping process allows communities to:

Clarify strategies and communicate them to all constituents Identify key internal services that drive strategic success Align resources to a common objective Expose operational gaps and initiate appropriate corrective

response
