Hello all! I have a new activity that I am going to start tomorrow.
I am going to hold a discussion group, seating the residents around the table, and I am going to record the conversation. (Obviously, by applying any relevant procedures in gaining consent) These conversations can be emailed and passed onto the families of the residents so that they have something good to remeber them by when they pass away. I am going to have a scrapbook for the care home, with photographs of activities and outings that they go to, so it is something for visitors to the home to see, and ask the families if they would like individual scrapbooks as a keepsake also. I'll let you all know how I get on: I just hope and pray that they will participate tomorrow. Wish me luck!
Thank you so much for such an awesome resource and to everyone for sharing their ideas. It takes the pressure off and allows more time to be spent with the ones we are caring for who after all need our time more than anything else. I am looking forward to reading as much as I can get my hands on and finding ways to improve the lives of our valuable community members and bring some sunshine in. Much appreciated :)
