I love Golden Carers! When I first became an ‘Activity Aide’ I spent hours scouring the internet looking for meaningful activities for elders experiencing cognitive decline. I finally found ‘Golden Carers’! I’ve passed along ’the find’ to the Activity Director of where I work. Thank you again for all that you do - Golden Carers is much more than a great resource for activities - it’s an education on how to provide ‘life’ to both workers and our elders.

In the High Care section of my Nursing Home we have a gentleman who is mid 60s and incredibly OCD. Quite intelligent but a terrible Cleptomaniac. Eats or talks about eating all the time. Load voice and other residents get irritated a lot. Does anyone else have residents similar to this and have any good ideas?
If he is able to
give him some magazines to cut recipes out of and make a recipe scrap book. Get him to research history of particular food, eg Apples and then have a Apple day, cooking apple cakes, or muffins, pikelets with strewed apple in, apple juice, old apple box label and quiz.
it would give him a purpose if he is able to focus.
I work in a 42 bed facility and for some time wanting to change the look of the notice board any ideas to brighten the notice board where we would put flyers etc.
Many thanks
