Sample Activities Calendars

HI Rosie
The calendar is more of display and a guide of what activities take place. I have a white board and write the days activities on it for residents staff and families. As activities can change very quickly depending on how our residents are when I arrive each day. I work in high care dementia unit. Hope this helps

Coffee Break

This is a lovely idea that we do each Tuesday and our residents love it. I have a lovely volunteer that makes fresh scones for us each week and we jam and cream them on the day, we also invite our families to join us. It is a wonderful socially relaxed morning. I also hold our residents meeting bi monthly on this day as I find we then get many family members too attend. It is one activity that never changes in our program as the residents really enjoy it and participation is extremely high.
