Hi Morgan, Getting volunteers involved is a wonderful idea. Here we have a planned activity form where who ever has planned and is going to run the activity fills in with all the details from what supplies are needed, where to find everything, special items ordered, what care recipients they had in mind to join the activity and so forth. This way if anyone is to call in sick this activity can still go a head as planned, the volunteer or whoever picks up your role can grab the planning sheet and know what is needed and where to get all the supplies.
Hello, I was wondering what other facilities do for World Elder Abuse Day? It's obviously not something people celebrate but is something that should be brought to people's attention. Any ideas would be appreciated. Lani
Hi Karin, We would also be interested in starting a pen pal/email relationship with your seniors facility. I would also have to check with work /boss. If interested, could you please send details. Thanks
I am starting my 2nd day as a Life Enrichment Coordinator and am loving it. I subscribed to your site to learn more about the assisted living world. I am loving the hands-on ideas and thoughtful articles. Thank you!!
