Hi,
I'm thinking to introduce a fake bus stop in the facility to accomodate residents with dementia who want to go home. Can anyone give me suggestions in regards to where to place the busstop, preferably outside. Does it have to be near a road to make it real or can we place it along a footpath which would be much safer. Any other comments and experiences would be much appreciated!
Thanks, Annemarie

Hi, I noticed the postcard exchange between Golden Carer members and that's a great idea. It made me wonder if we could start a postcard exchange between residents in facilities all over Australia?

Hi, every year before Christmas we have a Christmas Variety Show in our aged care facility. We are running out of ideas for simple songs and skits to perform with residents and staff. So anyone with a good idea please let us know. We're happy to share our ideas as well. Thanks, Annemarie
