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 .
I’m loving your website, it’s been a great help to me over the last six months since I started my new role. Lots of hints and tips, great activities, and it’s great that we can contribute too. It’s fantastic to have such a universal source of information, how we have a common goal and language despite our worldwide locations. Thank you!
I think this is a great idea
In fact I did something similar to this and it turned out very well
