Im new to this job sector. Does anyone have any hints and tips to be the best and help make a positive impact. I will be based between a residential and nursing home with some bed bound patients. Any ideas are greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Welcome to this wonderful field Lea! The links Talita offered have been a great help to me, and sure they will help you. Also, be present with each of your residents, and know that our jobs are more than just keeping someone entertained we work to ensure these individuals have the highest quality of life. Best of luck!
