I have 20 St. Patricks Day postcards that we made. Would love to swap with someone. I have 20 residents and not all get mail. I thought it would be nice to have a "Kindness Card" to post on their mail clip on door. Just for fun, maybe a monthly holiday theme.
HI Lydia! I'm a new Life Enrichment Coordinator looking for new ideas & activities for our residents in assisted living. I love the idea of exchanging postcards! St. Patrick's Day is in just a couple days but I would love to exchange regardless. We have several residents who rarely get mail and this would be such a delight for them. We could work on Easter cards? You can email me at [email protected]. (I've only been with the company a month and they don't have an email for me yet, so I just created an email to get started) I'm at Brookside Place in Redmond, OR. I also requested to join the Facebook group. So excited!
Once again Golden Carers has come to the rescue. I live in a retirement village and calling on my years as a Diversional Therapist I constantly use the Golden Carers for new ideas to run my group in the village. I especially love the Read Aloud Audience Participation activity and I always pick a very shy resident to take a part. It is amazing how much it brings them out of their shell. The quiz always helps keeps their minds active and gives them such a feeling of self worth when they get a correct answer.
