I agree with Jacqueline. In California we are noticing that people are staying in their homes longer and moving into facilities in their late 80's and even 90's. By this time they usually have more health concerns and cognitive impairment issues. It is a struggle trying to meet the various social and physical needs of the residents. Darlene
I just recently joined this site also and let me tell you it is WONDERFUL!!!! I am an activity director at a senior center and not only do our older seniors enjoy it but we also have a group respite program geared towards participants with dementia and Alzheimer's, that respond really well to the trivia/quizzes that the website offers. I am so thankful to have this site as a resource to assist with enhancing their quality of life!
