I prefer "physical distancing" better. I feel like it makes more sense than "social distancing". I hope I can remember to use that term myself. Thank you for such a great suggestion! Terrie
I just love this website. I feel like everytime I get on here, I stay on forever. I am always finding something new to try out on our residents. Thank you!
Thank you for the Spiritual Ideas. We have Televised Mass on Sundays that the Residents can watch while in their rooms. I did realize we have nothing to speak of for the other denominations. However we have DVDs that we can play and send to resident TVs that I plan to start doing. I do want to try to incorporate some of the ideas that you have mentioned. Thank you so much for these. I love this site! Terrie
I have bought this fish and it's quite fun and the residents really enjoy it. I have a special needs volunteer who enjoys taking the fish out in the halls too. It's worth the expense.
We have also been told that we cannot show movies. We use YouTube for various videos now. Its sad. I argued about this being their home. As long as its not on the calendar.....
THANK YOU for ALL YOU DO! Your website is remarkable and I'm so glad I found it! It's truly made my job easier. I go to private care homes (5 to 8 people) and do fun activities once or twice per week.
