Hello! I am an activity coordinator at a 50 person retirement home. It is my first time being an activities coordinator, and I have about 85% of my residents who only speak italian, and the rest are english speaking. I am having creativity block, and need to come up with activities that include everyone, and not play bingo for most of the week. The residents also range from various cognitive abilities.
