Where do I get the 90 units to enable residents to play?

I love the bunker bingo idea I will try this at work.
Mariann 18th Sep 2021 Director Of Activities
I love this idea and can't wait to try it with my residents. Thank you !!

Great idea, but did not work, all my residents lost interest and were thoroughly confused about it - staff liked it though.

Perhaps you could modify it in someway to make it more successful for your community.

Great idea! Thank you for sharing!
We have been doing bingo on the overhead loudspeaker.
The ordering dinner out prize and the length of this game adds to some excitement and should be a hit. Thanks!

This is a wonderful activity. I am the Lifestyle Co-ordinator and Team Leader at a Day Respite Centre so I "tweaked" the bingo game to suit our clients at home. (I printed bingo game cards which were free online).The bingo game cards and game instructions were delivered to client's homes in their weekly "Goodie Bag." Clients received the first six bingo numbers in their "Goodie Bag." Staff will subsequently telephone participants each morning with six new numbers, continuing until we have a winner! New game cards will be delivered weekly until the Respite Centre re-opens. Hope this is helpful for other Day Respite Centre's who are looking for meaningful activities because, "we're all in this together."

Bluecare another great idea thank you for sharing

We are doing almost the same thing, even residents that normally don't play BINGO are interested. I post the #'s on our activity board , this gets the residents out of there room if only for a brief moment. (the staff donate money to the pot) .Social distancing of course.

Janice, That is great and I am glad that everyone is enjoying it!
You could substitute the prize from money to just mailing or delivering a certificate or a goody bag of some sort If you are concerned about social distancing.

This certainly is a unique way to play bingo and it is good for people who have to stay in the rooms. I suspect lower-functioning residents will need some help. However it is a great idea and I’m glad you shared it

You could pass out papers that say the date and the Bingo number for that date.
That way the residents would have something to look forward to every day.
Your volunteers or staff could call residents with the daily number and remind them to mark it. There are many possibilities thank you for this.
Robert 5th May 2020 Activities Manager
Thank you for the suggestion. That would be an additional push to keep the rest playing.
