I too use a musical program. And I find that my resident does not want to dance or drum. But sometimes she will sing. And most times the musical from an era that she is familiar with is enough because she can express herself more easily than a lengthy conversation. So people are just toe rappers I guess.
This is an excellent idea! I started putting lavender in the room for my friend. It helps whenever she resists taking the last dose meds before bed. I let her smell the lavender scent and it seems to make the task a little more pleasant for her.
My residents thoroughly enjoy all the games I have been collecting from your page for them. Thank you! I am very grateful as I find it a great help to be able to log in and find all these wonderful games for them. Thank you so very much.
