I totally agree. I have even bought an amplifier for my iPad does not play loud enough for my hard of hearing residents. I all got a microphone. I love my iPad so much
Golden carers has helped improve my role as Engagement and activities practitioner, so many great ideas and activities available. This page has made my life so much easier, when I'm stuck for my own ideas i head over have a look what's new and a whole new world opens up. I have used Golden carers everyday since being in my new role, its amazing. Thank you to everyone that contributes.
