2017-12-05 07:06:03 PM ebroughton I am thinking about getting a gift card and putting each of my staff names in a jar (10 or so each) and everytime they call off they get a name taken out. Every time they pick up a shift they get an extra name put in. I draw one out the end of the holiday season. Hoping that may help with call offs. Need to check with HR to okay it.

2017-12-05 07:09:40 PM kellyanthony1 Are your facilities fussy about people bringing in baked goods? Only staff can do it this year for the residents.

2017-12-05 07:10:32 PM ebroughton I'm trying to do an Olympics activity in February. Think it would be fun for them since it is a special event that doesn't happen alot. I'm trying to think of ways for healthy competition and activities we could do.
