We are finally starting to see some green here! Spring rain in the forecast. Our first phase of the new building is complete and residents are finally all eating together in the new dining room. Thankful to hear the chatter at meals again. I took down the Easter displays and now thinking about spring growing and Mother's day. I have booked a little country greenhouse to take mothers day pictures. Residents and families call and book their photo shoot appointment. Some of the proceeds will benefit the Activity Dept. Just an idea to get families to take mom/grandma/aunty out and have a photo taken. Often times we forget the importance of a photo.
Hi Shelley Thank you for sharing this wonderful information You are right a photo can say 1000 words It will be a great memory for the resident and for the family
Love all the great ideas. Love Golden Carers. I have used so many of your ideas since I started and all with great feedback with staff who like to join in too. What a difference I have seen in the residents, more joining in because of giving them time to express what they like to do and always offering for them to join in, whatever the activity. Having so much to offer but not overwhelming them, just a little at a time and someone will show their enthusiasm to give it a try. Thank you Golden Carers.
