Lesley 14th Feb 2014 I to have a Poetry Appreciation group and we start discussing the poems and often get side tracked reminscing and even getting off the subject we are initially talking about. Some residents start singing songs so it becomes quite an interesting group.
Thank you ! so much for the wonderful ideas and examples. I am so glad that I found this site.. It makes me feel as if I'm not the only person who has an uphill battle sometimes with various comments on how or what should be done for the residents. It is hard to do planning which I mostly do at home anyway and also the activitiy program, evaluations and reviews etc. in the time allocated. Congratulations to all the Lifestyle people out there we must feel proud of what we do as we are bringing some pleasure and laughter to our wonderful residents.!!!

I've always enjoyed using Golden Carers, especially This Day in History and Armchair Travel. I love how you have the site organized and it looks amazing!
