Hi everyone, just wanted to share something I am doing next week and thought you might want to 'steal'. Since I can't take my residents to a pumpkin patch, I am bringing the pumpkin patch to them! I reached out to a couple vendors and I have 75 pumpkins being delivered Thursday morning! My Med-Tech owns a farm and is bringing in bales of hay, saddles, a back drop, a scarecrow etc. We are setting everything up in our courtyard as the residents can come outside and pick a pumpkin or two for their room. I will have a pumpkin decorating table and a dessert table with apple cider, pumpkin cookies, muffins etc. I can't wait!
Hello Leanne, I am sure the residents will have a lovely time, while reading what you are going to do for them , in my mind I could see it all happening, what a wonderful thing to do, you are very lucky to have "My Med-Tech" who owns a farm, they are wonderful too - 75 pumpkins!!!!! wow It's going to be a wonderful day for you all . All the best Gwyneth
I love this site, there is always an idea, quiz or craft that I can use or modify for my programs. After 35 years as an Activation Coordinator/Senior Facilitator, I am now semi-retired and running programs for individuals and small groups on Zoom (Mind Challenge/Theme Conversations & Your Story).
Love the forum idea and can see it being a real support to each other - wonderful to see the smiling faces, caring and positive attitudes that this field endangers!
Congratulations and thanks to the Golden Carers Team for a professional and well designed website that is internationally useful and user friendly!
You are very lucky that you can do this
Thank you for sharing
If you can send a picture of this that would be great
It's going to be a wonderful day for you all . All the best Gwyneth
