I am very lucky where I work, except never having enough time to do all things properly. But another Lifestyle Manager gave me this advice, to do the best you can at the time and don't be hard on yourself. I love working in aged care, previous job was in a bank and now consider myself very lucky to have the job I have. So I try to stay positive and I have worked as a carer in disability so understand a bit about the care side, so try to help out when I can. I always say we don't get paid much so lets have a pleasant working environment, be nice to and support each other.
Golden Carers is a phenomenal and creative resource of activities for the senior population and people with dementia. They also provide resources and support for the caregiver too. I liked all the different types of activities that were available. You could pick and choose from a plethora of items the activities appropriate for your group. Keep on doing what you are doing. So many people's lives have been touched and improved by your website. Your website is a blessing to many organisations.
