2019-01-22 07:16:42 PM mecaylaholmquist thats dumb. We let the residents do what they want as long as they are not casuing any safety concerns
2019-01-22 07:16:46 PM patriciaramella my facility is picky about what we hang. I am trying to change that! Our residents are proud of their work, and I believe it should be displayed.

She has no know family and her POA is a person through an agency that met her at the hospital and knows nothing about her. She will speak to you if you hold her hand and will make her needs known. Any suggestions of what we could do for this woman activiity wise besides tactile stimulation and aroma therapy?
