Hi everyone I’m just about to start my first day being an Activities Coordinator. I have never done this before, but have been a Carer at the Scheme for over three years, so know the residents well. I just wanted to thank you all for all the ideas that appear here and all the feedback on what works well. My Scheme is an assisted living Scheme, so more able bodied residents, and because of Golden Carers, I feel more/better equipped to start my new role Keep up the great work Beverley
Hi, Delighted I came across this site, lots of fun activities to take part in, love the quizzes and anagrams etc. that I can introduce to my local Day Care Centre!
Thank you Golden carers for all the great ideas. My residents really enjoy the quizzes and some of the craft activities. They especially want "This day in history". I try to make it a morning ritual after the newspaper reading. This month there are so many great ideas for St Patrick's day, many I have printed off to use. I take this opportunity to wish you all a Happy St Patrick's day. Here is my beautiful cat, she is much more photogenic than me!
