I have what I believe is a unique situation. Though we are independent and assisted, we currently only have 80 residents, and many of them are younger, like mid to late 50's and early sixties and many are men. I have not been able to find activities to interest them. It has been difficult finding things someone in their 80's or 90's and someone in their 50's and 60's both enjoy. Most of the older residents are women and the younger ones are men. Having social distancing added in the mix hasn't helped. Suggestions Please!!!
