Wonderful to be here with so many like-minded and passionate people! I'm putting together an 'Activities You can do in 5/10 Minutes' list for care staff and volunteers to refer to. Is there such a list on Golden Carers anywhere that I can use for inspiration?
Wanted to pass on a great resource that does have a small fee, but worth it. A web site called Jeopardy Labs. You can create your own Jeopardy games for residents. Can also adapt for a Picture Jeopardy for persons with dementia.
Your site is easy to use, I use it more often than the one our consultant has set up! I use so many of your ideas and love the Facebook page where everyone shares ideas, concerns and triumphs! I feel connected to a big wonderful caring society! I am always telling my co-workers how awesome Golden Carers is. I feel it is more in touch with the needs of my residents than many of the other Recreational Therapy sites.
