the information is very useful
I love all the ideas. We are currently restricting visitors in our community. It can be a challenge but thanks to all your ideas and support I’m blessed.
Thank you so much for your feedback Nancy. These are challenging times, we are so happy we can help you.
When residents are on lockdown how are all of you helping your residents cope with not being able to go out shopping?
Hi Tammy
You can let them look for things online
Then you can order the things for them or they can get them at a later time
During these difficult and challenging times, your site has been a complete god send.
I'm an Acrivities Coordinator (now called Wellbeing & Inclusion Assistant) for Retirement Living here in the UK.
Through your site I generate, what I call, a weekly "Lockdown Quiz Booklet" which includes some of your Quizes and other puzzles which also include a Prize Puzzle.
Thas been greatly received by out tenants and staff.
So thank you from me and all please Stay Safe.
I make a challenge Pack for every Friday and a few residents will take the challenge. It contains Mazes, Crossword puzzles, Word Searches, Color Pages, Quick stories, and Riddles.
Those who like less of challenge I give easier packs or just color pages. Residents each have their own box of color pencils.
Thank you so very much for your feedback Jenny. x
Hi Jenny
A lockdown quiz booklet sounds like a great idea
Thank you
At our skilled nursing facility we did a “spa” day where we used the hairdresser room to wash , dry and curl residents hair who don’t utilize the hairdressing services. It really lifted their spirits!
Thank you for all your prayers
I also hope all will get well soon
Susan, I am located in Lubbock, Texas. Where you located? Is it against the rules to ask? I feel extremely isolated being in confinement with my husband. My email is [email protected] if it’s okay to share.
Dear lord,please have mercy and restore good health to people affected with coronavirus
Great ideas and suggestions.
Hi Sharon
You sound like a great person
Thank you for your great effort
Thank you ,Susan. You made my day!❤️
Great idea in these challenging times! I will be promoting within my organization, thanks
Great activities and suggestions. My husband is in an Alzheimer’s facility. I do a music and mobility class once a week, hence my subscription to golden caregivers. I am quarantined in the facility with my husband. I am going to make cards for all the residents each day. I might even draw them pictures. I love this idea. Thank you.
