2017-08-22 06:21:23 PM sjorgensen If you do a Dog activity, and make dog biscuits, maybe you could also plan the rest of your day around dogs. Do a dog craft, sing about dogs, ask trivia questions about dogs, name dog breeds that start with each letter of the alphebet. Make a whole day of it and they will remember it longer!
2017-08-22 06:21:25 PM schmidtk22 My residents want bingo 4x a week!

2017-08-22 06:23:59 PM elainer11 We give out tickets at bingo that they use to purchase items from our in house store. You would think it was real money. It's about the winning.

2017-08-22 06:24:04 PM dianej Normally everyone gets a piece of candy when Bingo is over. The one who got the most bingos and the one who wins the cover all gets a ticket worth $1 they can spend on Fridays for ice cream. On our assisted living they like to play your special games like picture frames, etc and they win prizes like tissues, paper towels, candy, and so on.

2017-08-22 06:26:27 PM dianej On Halloween we invited the day care kids to come up and the residents have candy for them. The residents love to see the kids in their costumes. We are going to do an employee pumpkin decorating contest instead of a costume because there is always that one person willing to push the limits and wear something inappropriate.
2017-08-22 06:26:32 PM elainer11 The store is donated items and purshases out of the budget. We take no money and the store was there when I came but I'm sure the answer is no.

2017-08-22 06:31:43 PM dianej how do you guys handle weekend activities?
2017-08-22 06:31:49 PM nicolespangler very few of our residents are cognitively coherent enough to be able to lead activities on their own, so any evening activities I would have to be present
2017-08-22 06:31:52 PM sjorgensen Would "nail care" be counted as an evening activity?
2017-08-22 06:31:53 PM virginia i did a activites on vactions today we used travel books and planned a trip to scottland today
2017-08-22 06:31:58 PM lynmyhre I like that name "Armchair Travelers"

2017-08-22 06:32:53 PM nicolespangler so it stinks because all of our weekend activities are religious based, but they have activities. so it works out!
2017-08-22 06:32:53 PM sjorgensen Thanks...the CNA's would have to help with evening nail care, so, I questioned if it could be counted as such.
2017-08-22 06:32:56 PM nancyathiel i keep it simple because a lot of family visit and not to many people come to activities on the weekends
