Hi everyone, We are about to commence a late afternoon program for our Dementia residents, so I was wondering if anyone has any ideas to help us kick it off.

Thank You

Depending on cognitive decline, but a sing a long usually goes down well.

Being sundowner time can be tricky especially with a full moon.

Love all the great ideas. Love Golden Carers. I have used so many of your ideas since I started and all with great feedback. What a difference I have seen in the residents, with more people joining in when they’re given time to express what they enjoy and are always invited to participate, whatever the activity. Thank you Golden Carers.
