I can always find something great for our residents to do. Some of the quizzes are brilliant. Some are a little too difficult but we give then a go. My residents are especially good at finishing off the sentence or saying. Thank you, Amanda
We are looking forward to Alzheimer's awareness week next week. The staff are all going to be wearing a forget me not T-Shirt and on Friday 19th Nay we are having a Tea party to raise money for the Alzheimer's Society. We have a Forget me not display on a window and on the petals we have written specific words that mean something to us. Important words allowing daily life to continue how it should. Words such as - Dignity, choice, time, acknowledgement and happiness. All of the words were chosen by either the residents or the staff. A good way to get together and remember what we are all about and how we should go about our daily lives.
We have been a member of Golden Carers for the past 5 years and honestly, it makes our lives here both easier and more interesting!!! The hours it saves us when planning activities for our residents result in delivering quality activities. Our residents love the word searches and crosswords and the armchair travels have brought happy memories of holidays. Thank you for all you do!
