Hi All, I am a new member and am enjoying the site. thank you for all the ideas! I have 2 casual jobs, one as Activities coordinator in a small aged care facility and one in a Mental health respite residential place. However I am also a member of a Ukulele group with mainly aged people who are now not able to come together. We have been trying to keep each other connected through emails and today I saw the puzzle maker on your Quarantine special. It is really easy to use and to personalise the puzzles you use already. It might also engage some people more because the puzzle can be about them. I have just made one for our group with positive words and also the titles of lots of the songs we usually play!! thank you for giving the ideas to us. So pleased I am a member of Golden Carers.
Golden Carers has been a God send to me. The person before me left me winging it. So, I found Golden Carers in an internet search. I use the calendar, lots of the activity ideas, but the most appreciated is the different ideas from other members. Sometimes knowing what works in other facilities is so helpful.... I'm coming to the end of my first year, and can't wait to renew for another year.
