I've taken a group of men for a walk and a coffee to the hardware store. They loved wandering around and looking at all the items they used to use and we even picked up a few pieces of wood to work on bad at the facility.
The idea that Pauline suggested worked for us with a lady that always chewed her fingers and her clothes. Just make sure that you get the good firm ones and keep them clean and check on the integrity of them after a few days.
Thank you for all the wonderful ideas. Never disappointed when looking for inspiration when logging on to Golden Carers. We are so fortunate to have access to so many different ideas to use on a daily basis. Cannot thank you all enough for the wonderful work you do putting all those resources at our fingertips.
