I am struggling for ideas for people who have dementia to do. They are at various stages of dementia so some want to do things others do not and just want to watch the tv. I do reminiscing with them and show them pictures of things which does generate and conversation on a few people. I have tried to the matching games on here and manage to get a few people together for that. Please can anyone suggest any activities. I am trying my best but i think due to covid and not having a permanent activity person in situ for a long while the residents have settled into a routine of watching the tv and not talking to each other. It is very difficult to get them motivated and I have no budget at all so any ideas that are free would help .i will take any ideas on board.
