There is no wrong or right way to do this, we have an large cabinet in our "general area" it has a shelf with battery operated candles and some lovely plants and we place a large framed picture with birth date and RIP date, for all to see
My residents just love music and sing a long, but these songs are way too recent none of the residents would know these. Songs they enjoy are My Bonnie Lies Over The Ocean, My Darling Clementine, Only You (Platters), Que Sera Sera, You Are My Sunshine, Bye Bye Blackbird, Waltzing Matilda etc etc
This is my 1st year with GoldenCarers and I bless the day I found your site. It has helped me beyond belief to bring great activities to my residents and great advice when needed. So I would like to pass on my thanks and wish you all a VERY MERY XMAS AND A GREAT 2015 XX
I cant rate this site high enough. The activities and ideas are fantastic, varied and very relevant to our service. I log on every morning to see what's new and I'm always printing and using your materials. Honestly the best site I know of to provide activities for older people.
