Hi Looking at purchasing ipads/ tablets for my residents and was wondering what is the best to put music etc on if I get Ipads do I have to use ITunes or can I transfer some other way.. let me know what you have and what works best.. Thankyou Pauline
In my facility, if we make something the kitchen won't serve it but we can serve and it is ok, I know doesn't make sense but they won't take the responsibility. So if we make pies or biscuits or whatever it is as long as I or the nurses are willing to give it out it's ok..... ( the world has gone crazy....LOL0
Hi I have been asked if there is anything I need for activities as my workplace has a surplus and this is very rare that they ask me what I need for diversional therapy there any thing your facility has brought or would like to buy that will be beneficial to the residents, I have said ipads ..... your opinions and ideas would be greatly appreciated......
I just love love love this site - each time I'm glued to the many and awesome ideas to engage with our seniors. I recently downloaded some of the crossword puzzles and these seniors are fabulous to work with. That is just the tip of the iceberg. In this new chapter of my life, as semi-retired, I am so enjoying my time with seniors and watching them light up; I feel I've found a new niche. It's extremely gratifying. As to the cost of membership, it came out of my pocket - I rationalised that it was only about $3/month, less than many magazines. So keep up the GREAT work!!! Thanks again Golden Carers!!!!!
