Hello,

Lisa here. I have taken over the role of lifestyle coordinator and I'm looking for ideas to do with nursing care residents. All suggestions / ideas gratefully received.

Thanks

Hi Tmhw

Congratulations on your new role

You need to find out what the residents like to do and what they are capable of doing

look in their chart talk to them use observation

There is no sense having a calendar which people don’t like or can’t do

Most residents can do music activities because this taps into many parts of their brain

How many residents are there do you have staff and volunteers to help you

All important questions

Here are some sample calendars

I cannot thank you enough. I am so lost without The Golden Carers Resources.
