Hi Everyone, I am looking for an Activity on a Sunday afternoon 1pm - 2.15pm in our (High Care section) I know I shouldn't segregate, as it is now known as "Ageing in Place". We have Sing-along after morning tea and its great, however I am stuck for an idea to keep my beautiful residents uplifted. Thanks again Bron in Australia.

How about some kind of a spiritual event like a spiritual circle?

Keep it nondenominational singing familiar hymns. Perhaps you can find a group or family member who would like to lead this

Another idea is to read and discuss uplifting stories like Chicken Soup for the Soul stories

Be sure to make it interactive

Another idea is simple trivia or a simple game Golden Carers has many suggestions

I like card and large dice games that are simple

I co-own and operate a small assisted living home in Pittsfield, NH (U.S.A.). We consistently seek ways to improve upon our senior activity program, providing a diversified balance of a purposeful and enjoyable time of recreation, crafting, exercise and others to reach all of our residents. I must say, it's been a challenge. This past October I began researching options online and came across your site, subscribing for a year to see what you were all about. Let me tell you, you have not disappointed! Your site is a priceless resource that we are extremely thankful for. We find a significant increase in resident participation and look forward to the new ideas that each month brings. Our residents love the changes!
