love your work as always....can you help have now a large proportion of residents who want to do things but can hardly see - need success at end of activity to keep self esteem high - running out of ideas!!! thanks....Judy
We recently held a teddy bears picnic and it was a huge success! We held it as our theme for the Biggest morning tea and raised $500. Every resident brought their teddy bears to the morning tea, we had teddy bear biscuits and honey cakes, and the residents made huge paper flowers and honey bees to decorate the tables and hang across the room (because of course bears eat honey which comes from the flowers). There were lucky door prizes (tiny bears of course) and raffles (bears). Weeks afterwards and the residents are still talking about the morning tea and many of the bears have become their favourites and even come to lunch with some of them now. It was a lovely morning and there were also prizes for the largest, smallest, best dressed etc bears that came along. Cheers, J, NSW
great website - just been told by a quality improvement contractor on site that a one on one can be 5 mins and counts?? i was under impression it was 30minutes and could be spread over the day? im in nsw. Any ideas? thanks
We really enjoyed ourselves!! This web-site is the BEST. I have set aside the other resources at my facility since I discovered Golden Cares. I am so thankful for all the work that has gone into this site. It makes my life as a recreation coordinator enjoyable. Thank you
