I just love love love this site - each time I'm glued to the many and awesome ideas to engage with our seniors. I recently downloaded some of the crossword puzzles and these seniors are fabulous to work with. That is just the tip of the iceberg. In this new chapter of my life, as semi-retired, I am so enjoying my time with seniors and watching them light up; I feel I've found a new niche. It's extremely gratifying. As to the cost of membership, it came out of my pocket - I rationalised that it was only about $3/month, less than many magazines. So keep up the GREAT work!!! Thanks again Golden Carers!!!!!

Is this person looking for a job in the community or are you talking about a job for him to do in the facility ??
If you want to find a job for the person to do and your facility you need to find out what his interests and abilities are because you want the job to be success oriented and failure free

Here are somethings I’ve tried
I make cards on the computer for any occasion
I am make some copies on the copy machine The cards that need to be folded
I have the person fold these cards for me and then either he or someone else passes them out
I have had residents be my helper at an activity
If The person has a special talent than use it
I hope this helps
