Hi, I have just joined Golden Carers and have come across this link. I would love to get involved in this activity. I am the only activities coordinator at the moment in a 60 place house, the majority of our residents have dementia. The home has been without an activitiy coordinator for a while and our residents are struggling to be interested in activities, although slowly they are beginning to. What I am finding is they like to talk about their families and past places and I thought a penpal activity would be good and something for them to look forward to. If anyone would be interested please email me at [email protected]
Thank you very much to Golden Carers for creating such an informative website. You have assisted me and my colleagues in developing a fun and engaging activities programme that is meaningful and interesting for our Bristol Care Homes residents. You are also our plan B in the event that plan A does not go as planned. We strongly advise all activity workers to join you.
