Hi Jo-Anne
I have a similar thing happening at our facility. I call it The Wish List.
Residents are given an opportunity to write down a wish they would like to come true, something they would like to do for the first time or one last time. So far I have taken a lady swimming in the sea, another for a joyflight in a small aircraft, a small group out for a chinese meal, another lady out for line dancing lesson and the next on the wish list is 2 ladies off to the gold class cinema. The magic that happens when their wishes come true is amazing. As I have promoted this concept to throughout the facility, the wish list fund has been given money donations, so there is no cost to the residents, its a fabulous program.

Good Luck with your Bucket list
