Private Sitter For The Elderly
I am new at this activty assistant . I came upon the armchair travei iea and I will be taking the clients on an armchair trip once a month . My first trip will be in march were going to hawaii. I have planned to give out llies when they arrive inour big tv room. Wher its enough room to social distan, and will be serving a fruity drink, and snack from hawaii. Thank Golden Carers for this site.
Hi Latonia This depends on how strict your facility is about social distancing and keeping residents in their rooms The best way would be to take a tablet or iPad so residents can see what you’re doing To their rooms or taking a few residents in the big room so they can social distance I think a Phone would be too small
I introduced my group to the world of "Google Earth" last week on the smart board in our group room, and it was a huge success! Lots of reminiscing and a few happy tears! Some of our clients who haven't seen family members in a long time also went on a"virtual visit", with the group dropping into Poland, Scotland and Germany. It's a great idea and cant wait to do it again.
Thanks Ron for sharing, I am going to put this activity up via our improvement log as we have no laptop or internet access and this hopefully will achive it for us in therapy, & I can certainly see the residents gaining enjoyment.well done & keep sharing.
I've always enjoyed using Golden Carers, especially This Day in History and Armchair Travel. I love how you have the site organized and it looks amazing!

To the best of my knwoeldge, right now the only way to do this on Youtube with zero ads would be to purcahse a YouTube subscription.
Hope that helps!
