Thank you Golden carers for all the great ideas. My residents really enjoy the quizzes and some of the craft activities. They especially want "This day in history". I try to make it a morning ritual after the newspaper reading. This month there are so many great ideas for St Patrick's day, many I have printed off to use. I take this opportunity to wish you all a Happy St Patrick's day. Here is my beautiful cat, she is much more photogenic than me!

Could others please share the tick sheet thy use to record residents activities. I am using one a present that isnt working. Thanks Dee
Good Morning Deidre, Our facility tick sheet was ineffective as well. I found we revamped it to fit our activities, include grooming , walking, and independent leisure to your list.
Also at the bottom, leave several lined spaces for add in's; for example, "grooming section" could include, nails clipped and filed, hair appointment , electric shaving, lotion pampering ect.
Hope this helps.

Hi Darla,
I to am interested in what your tick sheet would look like as I am trying to revamp the one I am using at the moment.
Thanks
Our tick sheet is just a list of the residents and their room numbers then at the bottom of the page, we have the date and about 4 -5 spaces to write the activities and the time of activity. then with a high ligher pen each activity is given a colour and those attending the activity is highlighted in that colour. By the end of each day you have a clear view of who attend what by the colours. Works a wonder for us. 1:1s can be shown by a dot or a x so it distinguishes them from group activities.
