hi I've noticed that everyone's calendar is very busy ,I mean so much is written on one day with lots of pictures , does this not get confusing for people to take in . I make sure that my program isn't cluttered and easily read , but I suppose it looks pretty with lots of graphics and pictures , do you think this is preferred , I also keep regular activities so people know when something is on by habit , and that goes for my volunteers and other staff . we are all creatures of habits and regularities , this helps for those that are easily confused . hahah including me .
thankyou Jeanette , where would you get the general information and pictures from for different countries , i know that you can get alot of info from the net , just thought there may be other resourses out there clubs ect
hi in the facility where i work there are 40 med to low care residents . i do the activities alone doing an 8 hr day 4 x a week .i love my job and at times i coax the pcs to get involved if only for a few minutes, Our job is so different , and fun and engaging ,and it is always nice to have the pcs be part of that . and i know many pcs at first think my job is cruzy but until they get involved their thoughts change and generally the comment is "dont know how you do it "
Thank you for many years of wonderful ideas that you have given me through Golden Carers. Your ideas and opportunities for networking with other activities people have been a great resource for me to access. Wishing your wonderful organisation all the best.
