I like to have a Valentine’s Day party where I tell each resident why we love them we do this in between singing love with songs and doing trivia about Valentine’s Day The residents seem to love it and feel very good after it is over even though it doesn’t cost me much we do serve cake or something else sweet at the end In my opinion always better to serve food at the end of the activity
I have been in this field for close to 15 years. I came across your website initially because I was searching for a shared, personal forum with other professionals in my field that was not attached to random advertising and monthly fees. After discovering your website which hosted a forum that was exactly what I was looking for, as well as providing a mountain of resources that didn’t require you to follow several external links to get to, and to top it off no monthly recurring fee...Jackpot!
