Hello, I have recently started a new position as a RAO in a dementia wing.
I am trying to navigate through the new role and i am solely trying to get the residents in a group position to begin a activity. I feel defeated as I am chasing my tail trying to structure and place residents in position to start the activities.
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.

How do I navigate through this ?
Thank you for any feedback or ideas .
