hello i got a new job as care manager and caregiver at assitant living i need some fun excercies ideas using your hands feet some standing but fun stuff any idea group things and its in the memory care floor
Playing music ( hits from the 50s and 60s) works for my residents if they are bright and upbeat songs. It seems to jolly them along. I also include ball catches with different types of balls for their co-ordination. I have a bigger ball that they like to throw and kick to each other. Sometimes we include a round of quoits to finish off with. All the best, Judy
I just renewed my membership and going into my second year. When I got the notification that my first year was expiring, I knew I had to renew, there was no doubt in my mind. GoldenCarers is PRICELESS! As a DJ and mobile entertainer for over 38 years much of my business is with assisted living facilities and GoldenCarers has taken it above and beyond my competition. It always has something useful and too many to point out. I could no imagine running my business without GoldenCarers. You guys ROCK!
