[quote=Anonymous]I used to work in one years ago and I am sure not that much has changed: (1) As others said, visit often and unpredictably (2) When you visit be SUPER NICE to everyone, but also complain when it is warranted. Start out with, “I know you can’t control everything…” or “I completely understand how…. And I was wondering” (if something really bad is happening, of course, be more forceful and direct about it) (3) I don’t know if this is allowed these days, but families who would occasionally bring in donuts, etc for floor staff were a big hit (4) Make connections with other families who visit their loved ones often. If they know you are friendly and talk, whenever the other family is around, they will assume they will report to you if they notice anything untoward with your family member. Don’t underestimate the power of this. [/quote]
