I made up a picture board in our activity room of residents. The board has a poster heading "Now and "Then". I asked family to bring photos of their loved ones when they were younger and with the approval of the family , I take recent pictures of residents . I then post pictures under each "now and Then" . People would have to guess which resident picture belong to whom. This get people guessing and conversation going. Have residents and staff try to match photos and guess .
