2018-08-16 06:27:04 PM rickyd we do a coffee social every morning for the residents and incorporate current events from the daily newspaper, and then do "Trivia Time" usng Trivia Pursuit cards. One of my 90 something ladies seems to know just about everything...or nearly. when I asked her how she knows some of this stuff, her response was "When you've lived as long as I have, you know a thing or two;" which we all go a laugh out of.
2018-08-16 06:27:25 PM kathyhughes LOL Rick
2018-08-16 06:27:30 PM feleciap18 they wanted real money inplace of the paper money they won
2018-08-16 06:27:30 PM sunshine2018 THEY KEEP THEIR BINGO BUCKS OR SPEND IT AFTER THE GAME, ONE RESIDENT IS COLLECTING HIS..
2018-08-16 06:27:32 PM jenniferr2018 Our general store they would "charge it"..we didn't have to deal with money. In memory care we did give them credit cards the fake ones you get in the mail..so the resident could hand it to use to charge what they wanted..It worked well
2018-08-16 06:27:53 PM jadams69 we gave money to anybody that attending an activity function. it brought more residents
2018-08-16 06:28:03 PM sunshine2018 THATS A GREAT IDEA

2018-08-16 06:29:18 PM kathyhughes Well we did well with the system...one day I was walking past a residents room and his roommate was going through his drawers...the resident had passed....

2018-08-16 06:30:02 PM patriciabates I thought they would like the idea of the prizes but worried the residents would rather have the money

2018-08-16 06:30:51 PM kirstensch7 one resident used his paper money to tip the caregivers
2018-08-16 06:30:54 PM patriciabates Kathy thats sounds like my residents lol
2018-08-16 06:31:23 PM laurajackson lol, too funny!
2018-08-16 06:31:29 PM jenniferr2018 Donuts use to be cheap and it would draw most to our store...coffee was there too
2018-08-16 06:31:30 PM kathyhughes It was the snack basket with Beer and slim jims that would go for big bucks
2018-08-16 06:31:55 PM feleciap18 he wanted that
2018-08-16 06:31:57 PM patriciabates was trying to decide between Paper money or tickets

2018-08-16 06:32:49 PM jenniferr2018 what do you resident say..they have probably dealt more with money..fake or real
2018-08-16 06:33:06 PM patriciabates We do an auction every other month and the things that sell for the most sometimes crack me up
2018-08-16 06:33:20 PM sunshine2018 tHAT REMINDS ME OF THE TIME , i AM A RETIRED FLIGHT ATTENDANT AND i HAD A ELDERLY LADY ON BOARD AND SHE KEPT POPING UP AND DOWN LOOKING OVER HER SEAT AND WHEN i WENT PASS HER SHE WAS TEARING THE ARTICLES OUT OF THE MAGAZINE AND WHEN i TOLD HER THE MAGAZINE WAS FREE SHE SAID OH MY THEN STUFF THE MAGAZINE SHE BEEN TEARING THE PAGES OUT INTO HER OVERSIZE BAG lol
2018-08-16 06:33:33 PM jenniferr2018 where do you get your items
2018-08-16 06:33:57 PM kirstensch7 Dollar Store
2018-08-16 06:34:07 PM kathyhughes LOL Ronda

2018-08-16 06:34:27 PM kathyhughes We would go to Costco and buy in bulk...
2018-08-16 06:34:31 PM patriciabates Dollar store, dollar general, family dollar and staff donate
2018-08-16 06:34:34 PM rickyd regard bingo... we use the bingo bucks, and have an open store usually twice a month. however, we're thinging of changing things up with immediate priize selections; and the prizes are dependent upon the win: Postage stamp win=1 buck, 4 corners=1 buck, bingo w/free space=2 bucks, natural (true) bingo=3 bucks, and total black out will be the grand prize. We're going to take the idea to the Resident Council for approval and or feedback.
2018-08-16 06:35:22 PM jenniferr2018 sounds interesting..im sure it will get passed
2018-08-16 06:35:29 PM jenniferr2018 ..maybe
2018-08-16 06:35:40 PM kathyhughes We had prizes and once a month had Million Dollar Bingo with scratch off lottery tickets
2018-08-16 06:35:55 PM kathyhughes the prizes were in brown bags
2018-08-16 06:36:04 PM jadams69 sounds confusing to me. i just give 25 cents for everything but cover all, its 50 cents
2018-08-16 06:36:04 PM patriciabates We do cart bingo sometimes where they pick prizes when they win but sometimes they take a long time choosing prizes and the residents get impatient
2018-08-16 06:36:06 PM kirstensch7 we have snacks - that's why the
2018-08-16 06:36:15 PM kirstensch7 they love Bingo
2018-08-16 06:36:22 PM kirstensch7 the chocolate ;)
2018-08-16 06:36:44 PM laurajackson Yes, chocolate is a big hit!
2018-08-16 06:37:08 PM rickyd we've talked abou the lotto tickets for grand prizes...whether they win money or not, they'll love scratching them off.
2018-08-16 06:37:23 PM kirstensch7 mini chocolate pieces for normal wins and a regular bar for blackout
2018-08-16 06:37:34 PM laurajackson Is anyone at assisted living doing assisted living week?

2018-08-16 06:38:50 PM patriciabates we play a game called dice and grab where the prizes are in brown paper bags and they are numbered , they roll the dice and what # they get they get that sack but they cant open it until the 3 rounds are over then who ever has the bags gets to open them and keep the prize
2018-08-16 06:38:51 PM rickyd does that mean they are celebrating me living through balloon bombinga 3 days a week.lol

2018-08-16 06:39:28 PM laurajackson I was thinking about having theme days for it. Like Crazy hat day or Western day.
2018-08-16 06:39:30 PM kirstensch7 I amde a banner for Housekeeping week but not sure about assisted Living week. We have just been through major changes in company and lost a lot of activity hours. Things that happens when you work for privately owned and paid companies :(
2018-08-16 06:39:47 PM rickyd patricabates...I love this, and bringing it the council next month as an activity idea.
2018-08-16 06:39:53 PM jenniferr2018 we are doing a photo booth one day to capture the residents, their friends and staff and residents. I am hoping to shoot a music video too that week or show it that week..time is going fast. Staff are excited and the residents too...it is going to be a big production

2018-08-21 05:37:37 PM kathyhughes Hello Kory
2018-08-21 05:37:48 PM koryphil Hi Kathy
2018-08-21 05:38:00 PM dianep National Assisted Living week is coming up in September. Working on activities to go with the theme "Capture the Moment"
2018-08-21 05:38:20 PM kathyhughes Yes that is quite the theme!
2018-08-21 05:38:21 PM chrnishar we are taking our residents to the town fall festival in town next month . and Im going to decorate their doors for fall. they are excited about leaves on their doors.
2018-08-21 05:38:42 PM kathyhughes I say have a photo booth and bury a time capsule
2018-08-21 05:38:55 PM massaromichelle I LOVE the door idea:)
2018-08-21 05:39:09 PM tanea37 i dont know if it is just bradenton florida but we do nothing like that here
2018-08-21 05:39:17 PM kathyhughes We had residents who enjoyed decorating their doors each month...it turned into an activity on its own
2018-08-21 05:39:19 PM juliet16 I learn a lot and enjoying the class despite of busy and hectic schedule at work.
2018-08-21 05:39:29 PM dianep Got the photo booth on the schedule also going to do a Guess Who's Who board.
2018-08-21 05:39:44 PM koryphil we are having our fall festival Thursday.
2018-08-21 05:40:25 PM kathyhughes Wow Kory! this Thursday???
2018-08-21 05:40:38 PM tanea37 it is si nice to be able to listen to some of these new ideas so i can bring them to the table at our care center
2018-08-21 05:41:01 PM chrnishar Yes, we try to do every holiday but its been kinda hard to do them by myself.
2018-08-21 05:41:08 PM massaromichelle I also love getting ideas
2018-08-21 05:41:41 PM kathyhughes There are a lot of creative minds here
2018-08-21 05:41:41 PM koryphil i like the door idea i dont think our DON will allow that thinks its too messy. yes its basically our back to school activity. cotton candy booth snow cones a dunk tank and back packs fillled with school supplies
2018-08-21 05:42:05 PM dianep It's really hard to get into thinking about fall when the weather is still in the 90s
2018-08-21 05:42:14 PM massaromichelle Sounds fun Kory!
2018-08-21 05:42:29 PM kathyhughes When you have the backpacks do you place a business card in them from the facility?
2018-08-21 05:42:41 PM kathyhughes I know Diane...
2018-08-21 05:43:47 PM koryphil i dont know about that but that is a great idea. i am trying to get the football team and cheerleaders to come to our home and spend some time before the home games. i think that would be great.
2018-08-21 05:43:54 PM kathyhughes I would place something in them to have the teachers contact me to do something with the residents
2018-08-21 05:44:20 PM koryphil love that idea thanks Kathy
