Hi, I am looking for ideas to help spark conversation over lunch time. We have tried reminiscence leaflets on the tables but this doesnt spark much conversation amongst residents. Would love some ideas, we are in a small residential home with around 70% with dementia. Many thanks!
Once again Golden Carers has come to the rescue. I live in a retirement village and calling on my years as a Diversional Therapist I constantly use the Golden Carers for new ideas to run my group in the village. I especially love the Read Aloud Audience Participation activity and I always pick a very shy resident to take a part. It is amazing how much it brings them out of their shell. The quiz always helps keeps their minds active and gives them such a feeling of self worth when they get a correct answer.
