Karen Lead Activity Co-ordinator

Hello all! I have a new activity that I am going to start tomorrow.

I am going to hold a discussion group, seating the residents around the table, and I am going to record the conversation. (Obviously, by applying any relevant procedures in gaining consent) These conversations can be emailed and passed onto the families of the residents so that they have something good to remeber them by when they pass away. I am going to have a scrapbook for the care home, with photographs of activities and outings that they go to, so it is something for visitors to the home to see, and ask the families if they would like individual scrapbooks as a keepsake also. I'll let you all know how I get on: I just hope and pray that they will participate tomorrow. Wish me luck!

This sounds like a good idea you may have to adapt and modify it depending on the residents reaction

I can’t wait to hear how it turns out

Better make sure you are allowed to record. It is prohibited at my site.
