On one of my units, I do something similar to this but I place them in a shadow box in each patients room. I ask a variety of questions and then I type the questions and the patients answers up adding pictures of relative things from their answers and place them in their shadow box. Then patients and families can add pictures and fun things from home in the shadow box too. Staff Love them as the information is great conversation starters especially for folks that are quiet and maybe having a difficult time adjusting or socializing with others!

So glad I found you, your site is such a blessing to me 😊. I have been a PCA for 17 yrs. I am in charge of making up the monthly calendar and coming up with new ideas. It was starting to be a real challenge. I encourage all my residents to join in daily but they need new things offered to hold their interest. So glad I took a chance and signed up with you!!! You're making my job a lot easier. Thank you and keep up the great work !! It's so appreciated.
