Client Experience Coach/Activity Facilitator
Hi there, I am Carlota working in disabilities and currently part of the group where we are facilitating the activities for our clients but most of our clients are high needs and in a wheelchair, and our other clients are walker. Now, I was assigned to oversee the following sessions: 1. Matariki Class 2. Theatre works 3. Scrapbooking 4. Mind works 5. Looking after Me
If you have ideas on those classes will be a big help for me if you can share it to me. Thank you in advance.
Hi Carlota I assume that the residents or peoplethat come to your center are interested in these activities and not the idea of an administrator I would modify the activities, soparticipats can participate in them First of all, you need to be engaging and get everyone to participate. Also, you need to be excited about the group you are doing. Here are some comments from some of the members Of golden carers Will tell you about Matariki You can have a discussion and or sing appropriate songs https://www.goldencarers.com/search/?search=Matariki
The hardest part is starting up, we encouraged people just to draw a squiggle if they couldn't think of anything else. Our disability group also joined in, so it's really a good intergenerational activity also.
We really enjoyed ourselves!! This web-site is the BEST. I have set aside the other resources at my facility since I discovered Golden Cares. I am so thankful for all the work that has gone into this site. It makes my life as a recreation coordinator enjoyable. Thank you
