I know world kindness day just passed but it got me to thinking about how residents and staff could be unkind and not even intentionally so if you sense that a resident feelings have been hurt it's a good idea to have an impromptu kindness group or you could even have it as part of another activity
Have a discussion about what it means to be kind and maybe read some kindness poem discuss them and maybe make up your own or have the residents help you make them up https://www.goldencarers.com/kindness-poems/3851/
This not only will help residents think about being kind but it's a good creative activity as well

Hi Susan, I read the poem you shared from Golden Carers and found it to be such a wonderful reminder to bring kindness into our everyday. Thank you for sharing!
An amazing resource for anyone looking for ways to enrich the lives of the elderly. You provide an invaluable resource for anyone caring for the elderly, and I have appreciated every moment of our association.
