Amazing what love and kindness can achieve . I asked very verbally aggressive resident if he can be my friend because I really need one at the moment and gave him a hug ,he smiled at me and said yes ,he was always verbally abusing as soon as he seen me . It is working so far ...
I just recently joined this site also and let me tell you it is WONDERFUL!!!! I am an activity director at a senior center and not only do our older seniors enjoy it but we also have a group respite program geared towards participants with dementia and Alzheimer's, that respond really well to the trivia/quizzes that the website offers. I am so thankful to have this site as a resource to assist with enhancing their quality of life!
