Tried this for our Family Home Evening activity using the names of our residents for the story line. It was hilarious. Even our most grumpy resident was smiling.
We are going on a "virtual" holiday around Australia at the moment. The Residents are very excited and involved. They love telling stories about the towns they have visited as we arrive there. We have a large map and folders and each town we stop at I print out a brochure about the town and put it in their folders. It is a lot of fun
I love this site, there is always an idea, quiz or craft that I can use or modify for my programs. After 35 years as an Activation Coordinator/Senior Facilitator, I am now semi-retired and running programs for individuals and small groups on Zoom (Mind Challenge/Theme Conversations & Your Story).
Love the forum idea and can see it being a real support to each other - wonderful to see the smiling faces, caring and positive attitudes that this field endangers!
Congratulations and thanks to the Golden Carers Team for a professional and well designed website that is internationally useful and user friendly!
