Thank you for sharing

Thank you for your ideas

This sounds like fun and achievable.

Thank you for sharing your ideas. As we have no volunteers back in our facility as yet, your plan is manageable by my self.

This information is very helpful. We have a resident who becomes very anxious and wants to go home to her family. It is very difficult to console her some afternoons as she becomes very fixated on leaving. I will try the home duties activity with her

Thank you
As I have not combined all sensory perceptions before with a person who suffers with anxiety I will try this sensory activity with her.

I have commenced a creative writing group. There are 4 residents who attend however they have so much fun telling stories of yesteryear. The Residents give me the job of writing their stories and putting them in verse or short stories.
With their stories I have now put together 3 beautiful reminiscence booklets filled with their memories which they each treasure. They have homework each week which consists of a word or sentence to be discussed the following week. Recently we the word was " Broom" we had such fun bring up memories of how they used the broom in so many ways.

What a great idea with autograph books reminiscence session. I will use this session in our next group activity.

Thank you for the great ideas
Very helpful

I will include a learning activity on the next calendar - sounds great
