Hi Dianne, There are so many possibilities with this. Most of our residents at my workplace have a laminated name tag and maybe an image of something they like, but others also have a personal sort of charm they have attached to their walker to identify it at a glance. Some of these include small crocheted or knitted charms like flowers or butterflies. If there is interest, you could incorporate this into name badges by crocheting or knitting a square and then attaching a name tag with it :)
Thank you very much to Golden Carers for creating such an informative website. You have assisted me and my colleagues in developing a fun and engaging activities programme that is meaningful and interesting for our Bristol Care Homes residents. You are also our plan B in the event that plan A does not go as planned. We strongly advise all activity workers to join you.
