I’m loving my Golden Carers membership. I found great resources and was able to use them from my very first day. The membership is of great value in my work as both an Activities Director, and also an Activities Consultant. I look forward to continuing to use the site and the forum.

Hi guys! I am new to this field and will be starting in a newly built facility. I am trying to compile a list of supplies and equipment I will need to get my department rolling. I would love to get suggestions from experienced Program Directors. What were some things (outside of the basic art/craft supplies and games) you wish you had when you first started?
Boccia
Golf club and green
Pool table (bucket list)
Thanks Missy!
A van, a good computer with calendar program. I use print shop.
Lots of storage. Buy some tubs for storage, paper boxes stink...
Get a GOOD Camera !!! Take lots of pictures for your own archives as well as for the facility. Get handy with "Excel" . Good luck and always have fun. I've been in this business for 30 years.
