Hi there! I am trying to put together a little "box" of supplies to put at the nursing station for after hours therapy. This idea came about because therapy staff are usually there until 6pm, and I am trying to bridge the gap between therapy and clinical staff who keep asking for ideas when residents wake up in the middle of the night, or want to do something but can't sit down for long enough to watch a movie/show.
So far I have a deck of cards with some instructions on some basic games, some small arts and craft supplies, where some of our other stuff is located etc. Do you have any ideas of smaller activities that I could put in this resource box? Thanks in advance!
We have been a member of Golden Carers for the past 5 years and honestly, it makes our lives here both easier and more interesting!!! The hours it saves us when planning activities for our residents result in delivering quality activities. Our residents love the word searches and crosswords and the armchair travels have brought happy memories of holidays. Thank you for all you do!
