Thanks for your ideas Solange, il see how i go :) I am just struggling because i cant decide if they are enjoying my company or really wanting me to bugger off!! neither of them show emotion which i find difficult but i would love to make them happy as one gets no visitors whatsoever and the other gets her daughter visiting every so often.

I have just started a new job and have 2 residents in the home that are bed bound (one male, 93 and 1 female, 99) previously i have only worked with able bodied clients so i am struggling with ideas. neither of them talk/communicate (i have been told the male can but only says something now and again) and neither have much movement. at the moment they just sit in their beds with the tv on. Any ideas?
Thank you for all the wonderful ideas. Never disappointed when looking for inspiration when logging on to Golden Carers. We are so fortunate to have access to so many different ideas to use on a daily basis. Cannot thank you all enough for the wonderful work you do putting all those resources at our fingertips.
