Looking for help completing goals and objectives for my programming. Ie. Bingo, Musical Entertainment. Working from scratch as the previous Activities Director did not have. Thank you for any ideas!!
WE just finished Mother's Day Bingo and the residents and volunteers really enjoyed it. They were excited to see what would be on the cards for Father's Day Bingo. When I checked I see there is not a Father's Day Bingo. Is this something you could create or does anyone have one to share? Thanks
Hi, Has anyone done an armchair travel to Canada? I had a resident request to see the Canada, specifically out west. So far we have really loved the Travel videos on Golden Carers. Any suggestions for videos for this? Thanks Lisa
Looking for ideas for Easter as a hand out the residents. We have to be very careful as a lot of diets are minced/pureed. Any ideas? I was thinking of an Egg with Tuck Shop Money inside? Any other ideas?
Hi, You guys have been so great with providing us with posters for all types of different Theme Days. Any chance you have any Summertime posters to share? Thanks
Looking for Father's Day Poster signs. Any suggestions? I loved the beautiful Mother's Day poster I had gotten on here, but could not find one for Fathers Day.
Your post was exactly what I am feeling today. It is a struggle to think of different and stimulating activities that you can only do 1:1. Unfortunately we have strict guidelines related to Covid 19 and we are not able to do any group activities. Door ways do not work for us because a lot of our residents are in semi-private rooms. What I am working on right now is doing themed days. Music Mondays ( going to try and have our performers send video clips of them singing to show on ipads), Trivia Tuesday ( use this wonderful site for different ideas of Trivia), Word Game Wednesday ( again using this site for ideas such as Hangman, tic tac toe) Tech Thursday ( ipad programs ), and Fitness Friday ( Exercise). I'd love to hear other ideas!
I just want to reassure you that Golden Carers is worth every penny. I have been using your resources for many years now in various organisations. Thank you, you make my job so much easier and interesting for the residents.
