Where I work we have an Annual Memorial Service where a Minister comes and has a short service. I do a Powerpoint Presentation of the residents that have passed away and show it on a large screen with music in the background. The families are invited of the residents that have passed away. It is a tribute to the wonderful times that we had together and good for the families. It is well represented by family members, residents and staff. It only goes for 30 mins .
I just recently joined this site also and let me tell you it is WONDERFUL!!!! I am an activity director at a senior center and not only do our older seniors enjoy it but we also have a group respite program geared towards participants with dementia and Alzheimer's, that respond really well to the trivia/quizzes that the website offers. I am so thankful to have this site as a resource to assist with enhancing their quality of life!
