Laughter is contagious; one person's laughter is soon shared by another. Finding ways to make people laugh in long-term care facilities is a worthwhile endeavor that will stimulate positive emotions and encourage social interaction between clients.
I am always looking for short and funny stories for our quarterly Newsletter. I don't have to search anywhere...Thank you Golden Carers, you are the best!
What perfect timing! Thank you! I was just going to look for some jokes for my December newsletter. This site is always so helpful, I have gotten a lot of good ideas from here.
I just LOVE the multicultural section of this fabulous website. I work as a Activities Director at a day service facility and we are currently closed due to COVID! I am mailing/delivering personalized packages to our clients. We have clients of many different cultures and ethnic backgrounds. Adding pages of color-printed information from their country really brightens their day. The family members/care givers are delighted to see a spark in their loved ones eyes when they see and read about their history. I am becoming so educated myself learning all this. It will help me when we get back to work striking a spark in our clients eye when I reminisce with them about their culture. I seriously can NOT get enough of this fantastic site. xoxo :-)
