2014-07-22 06:35:16 PM kathyhughes I have a whole board full
2014-07-22 06:35:25 PM sheminger left the chat room
2014-07-22 06:35:27 PM debbielee you could also do food baskets to sell. like putting items in baskets to make a meal. spaghetti noodles, sauce in jar gift certificate for store to get hamburg .and garlic bread
2014-07-22 06:36:10 PM kathyhughes and you can sell anything that has to do with the holidays or to make life easier
2014-07-22 06:36:19 PM sandy hot sauce in mason jars
2014-07-22 06:36:24 PM margarethrabal Pinterest the activity bible!

2014-07-22 06:37:34 PM sandy lol
2014-07-22 06:37:35 PM lisac lotions and soaps are pretty easy to make. also sugar scrubs and even chapstick.
2014-07-22 06:37:43 PM kathyhughes http://www.pinterest.com/kateh201/
2014-07-22 06:37:51 PM beccafletcher14 Yep. Was just going to suggest homemade lip balm
2014-07-22 06:37:58 PM beccafletcher14 We did that last year and had a blast
2014-07-22 06:38:00 PM carola You could easily make a spa basket. Get nice smelling soap in a bundle but use only one per basket, scrubby from dollar tree, pretty washcloth (crocheted by residents?), etc.
2014-07-22 06:38:14 PM kathyhughes good idea
2014-07-22 06:38:35 PM sheminger enter the chat room
2014-07-22 06:39:05 PM nshumpert we done araffle this past week with 2 bottles of wine, cheese, crackers, sausage, two movie tickets. Each ticket was a dollar. We made like 40 dollars from it. Residents and staff were welcomed to participate
2014-07-22 06:39:31 PM kathyhughes sounds great
2014-07-22 06:39:34 PM margarethrabal Where is Matt?

2014-07-22 06:39:46 PM slim9 enter the chat room
2014-07-22 06:40:01 PM debbielee we also buy balloons for occassions and sell to staff or visitors.
2014-07-22 06:40:14 PM kathyhughes Hello Stacey
2014-07-22 06:40:19 PM nshumpert i like the recipe idea. I need a recipe book myself lol

2014-07-22 06:40:30 PM slim9 Hello
2014-07-22 06:40:39 PM margarethrabal Good Idea name the package
2014-07-22 06:40:40 PM sandy good idea on balloons
2014-07-22 06:40:44 PM kathyhughes you can also sell the balloons for Halloween
2014-07-22 06:40:46 PM sheminger there so fun cause you get desserts and main meals on in one
2014-07-22 06:41:12 PM carola You could probably make a balloon bouquet and use an inexpensive stuffed toy to anchor the balloons...
2014-07-22 06:41:13 PM sheminger alll*
2014-07-22 06:41:17 PM kathyhughes Halloween is on a Thursday this year so you could sell them Halloween Day
2014-07-22 06:41:19 PM debbielee we already have our helium tank. we order the balloons from balloons everywhere magazine. big fundraiser is valentines day
2014-07-22 06:41:33 PM sandy great!
2014-07-22 06:41:57 PM khughes its time for me to eat see you all soon and good luck with the exam and mid term!!!!
2014-07-22 06:42:03 PM margarethrabal Balloons everywhere?
2014-07-22 06:42:03 PM debbielee we do birthday balloons regularly.
2014-07-22 06:42:09 PM khughes left the chat room
2014-07-22 06:42:09 PM kathyhughes Valentine balloon bouquets are awesome
2014-07-22 06:42:15 PM mariak balloons for sale for family and visitors would be a good income generating activity
2014-07-22 06:42:18 PM kathyhughes made a killing
2014-07-22 06:42:27 PM sheminger we also have talked about making flower pot man
2014-07-22 06:42:34 PM sandy sounds pretty
2014-07-22 06:42:38 PM debbielee Balloons Everywhere is acompany we order from. could probably find on line
2014-07-22 06:43:08 PM slim9 i'm not well versed on our (company) policies and procedures, but they really frown on the mention of selling anything. Something to do with solicitation
2014-07-22 06:43:32 PM debbielee where are you located at slim9
2014-07-22 06:43:39 PM carola Another idea to sell or raffle. Flower pot (painted/decorated by residents) with seeds, gloves, etc. Most can be gotten at Dollar Tree.
2014-07-22 06:43:45 PM margarethrabal Flowerpot man, I dont know he might get some dirt on me
2014-07-22 06:43:50 PM slim9 youngstown, ohio
2014-07-22 06:43:55 PM beccafletcher14 Good one Carol
2014-07-22 06:43:58 PM valerieh Will I still get credit if I leave early?
2014-07-22 06:44:04 PM sheminger youngstown ohio very close to me
2014-07-22 06:44:18 PM debbielee ok slim9. I dont know why they frown on fundraisers its good for residents.
2014-07-22 06:44:19 PM kathyhughes https://www.aerialbouquets.com/ sell wholesale and you have to set up an account but the price is worth it
2014-07-22 06:44:27 PM kathyhughes fine Valerie
2014-07-22 06:44:46 PM valerieh I have an early morning
2014-07-22 06:44:52 PM kathyhughes People have to know what the money will go for
2014-07-22 06:45:02 PM valerieh left the chat room
2014-07-22 06:45:18 PM kathyhughes and so if you can show them where the money is going they will give more money
2014-07-22 06:45:26 PM lisac do you fill them with helium yourself?
2014-07-22 06:45:28 PM debbielee they have to know its to benefit their family members and your residents.
2014-07-22 06:45:40 PM kathyhughes right
2014-07-22 06:45:55 PM slim9 Im just being introduced to our finacail records (budget) and its not good. We are literally begging and borrowing
2014-07-22 06:45:56 PM debbielee yes I fill with helium .
2014-07-22 06:46:05 PM kathyhughes and if you are a gambling facility! well 50/50 raffles on payday are cheap and easy
2014-07-22 06:46:11 PM mariak your right kathy- thats the basic thing to do before any fundraising activity be conducted..
2014-07-22 06:46:18 PM carola So many people feel like with the cost of living at the facility fancy activities should be included.
2014-07-22 06:46:25 PM kathyhughes I know
2014-07-22 06:46:26 PM debbielee we have a tank right in my office
2014-07-22 06:46:30 PM sheminger that is a good idea about 50/50 raffle
2014-07-22 06:46:32 PM sandy thanks kathy for that tip on web sight
2014-07-22 06:46:51 PM kathyhughes but they don't realize that the activities dept has to provide all sorts of things
2014-07-22 06:46:55 PM kathyhughes you are welcome
2014-07-22 06:47:04 PM margarethrabal Timing is everything.Have fund raiser on pay day
2014-07-22 06:47:16 PM beccafletcher14 Or how important activities are interms of the general well-being of residents
2014-07-22 06:47:18 PM kathyhughes I had a resident who sold the 50/50 tickets every payday
2014-07-22 06:47:30 PM slim9 we had a tank (Hellium) however it was only used for decorating inside the facility
2014-07-22 06:47:34 PM kathyhughes he made a lot of money
2014-07-22 06:47:51 PM sheminger thats how i feel the aide complain about activities and crafts but we dont have the money to do all the things they want us to do
2014-07-22 06:48:12 PM margarethrabal The residents really get into selling!
2014-07-22 06:48:13 PM sheminger activities have to pay for alot out of our budget
2014-07-22 06:48:16 PM mariak our staff are willing to share as long as they know where the money is going to..
2014-07-22 06:48:16 PM kathyhughes they do
2014-07-22 06:48:28 PM debbielee we keep their family members entertained and feeling like they are still a part of a group family doing fun things together.
2014-07-22 06:48:40 PM kathyhughes so its a good idea for them to know what the item is that the money is for
2014-07-22 06:48:41 PM sheminger left the chat room
2014-07-22 06:48:50 PM sheminger enter the chat room
2014-07-22 06:49:00 PM mariak its good to involve the families too...
2014-07-22 06:49:21 PM kathyhughes Also make a wish list for the holidays so when someone asks if you need anything you are prepared
2014-07-22 06:49:44 PM kathyhughes and make sure you have items from $10 to $100
2014-07-22 06:49:52 PM jean1 I have a wishlist for items, as well as for things that volunteers can help with.
2014-07-22 06:49:55 PM kathyhughes or more
2014-07-22 06:50:03 PM margarethrabal Gosh thats a good idea to start wish list now!!!
2014-07-22 06:50:15 PM debbielee I am fortunate that we have an auxiliary that helps support our activities and our local families also support us and are willing to give their time and funds to keep our activities exciting.
2014-07-22 06:50:21 PM sheminger Im going to start one
2014-07-22 06:50:26 PM kathyhughes update it Jean and make sure you can tell them where to get the item
2014-07-22 06:50:41 PM kathyhughes thats great Debbie
2014-07-22 06:50:50 PM carola Wish list item that I would like to see would be gift cards to Walmart, Target so we could use them year round.
2014-07-22 06:50:59 PM mariak thanks for the christmas wish TIP, kathy. will do that with my staff next month and post the list @ the activity room..
2014-07-22 06:51:05 PM kathyhughes also make a list of activities groups can do after Christmas
2014-07-22 06:51:13 PM slim9 companies (corporations) will do a spend down right at the end of the year, in order to right it ($) off as a charitable contribution
2014-07-22 06:51:24 PM kathyhughes right
2014-07-22 06:51:29 PM margarethrabal we have a pot of gold resale shop. the shop helps fund our activities.
2014-07-22 06:51:41 PM kathyhughes and if you are brave you can send that to your vendors at the facility
2014-07-22 06:51:49 PM jean1 Good plan, Kathy.
2014-07-22 06:51:58 PM sheminger left the chat room
2014-07-22 06:51:59 PM debbielee at Christmas the ladies auxiliary also makes sure every resident has a gift.

2014-07-22 06:53:07 PM sheminger Our nursing home around christmas time gets names for the child around gibsonburg how dont get things, we have the residents help make us baskets and go pick things out for the kids
2014-07-22 06:53:11 PM kathyhughes Ours would fill Christmas stockings for all the residents and the night shift would place them in the residents rooms at night
2014-07-22 06:53:27 PM lisac awwww

2014-07-22 06:53:43 PM kathyhughes the residents loved it

2014-07-22 06:54:16 PM debbielee our residents are going to make christmas book marks to hand out to local kids that come to sing carols for us.
2014-07-22 06:54:16 PM slim9 getting in good with different companies during the year could turn into wonderful opportunities at the end of the year, during the holidays
2014-07-22 06:54:19 PM kathyhughes everyone got an orange and some other little toiletries
2014-07-22 06:54:29 PM kathyhughes right

2014-07-22 06:54:48 PM kathyhughes Anything else that I can help with?
2014-07-22 06:54:50 PM mariak how i wish we could do the 'filled-up stocking' for each resident this christmas
2014-07-22 06:55:03 PM kathyhughes you can Maria
2014-07-22 06:55:24 PM carola You can get pretty little decorated lunch bag style bags. They make a nice package.
2014-07-22 06:55:33 PM nshumpert Thanks everybody for the ideas. We had a really good chat
2014-07-22 06:55:37 PM lisac start collecting christmas gifts now!
2014-07-22 06:55:41 PM kathyhughes just ask a church group and give them a list of items
2014-07-22 06:55:44 PM jean1 I'm going to do the stockings this Christmas. That is wonderful.
2014-07-22 06:55:55 PM lisac i got some free trial hand lotions from mary kay from a reseller.

2014-07-22 06:56:09 PM debbielee our local churches give alot of donations. they call and ask what is needed.
2014-07-22 06:56:11 PM slim9 right now agencies are calling because they want or need to show that they are volunteering hours, time and in most cases some type of product. its a win-win situation for everyone involved
2014-07-22 06:56:18 PM kathyhughes you can use the stocking idea of them
2014-07-22 06:56:22 PM sheminger Had a great time reading all this ideas! Thanks ya'll have a wonderful night

2014-07-24 05:50:46 PM ginad I was just hired part time as an activity aide at the facility that I am doing my practicum. For the past 8 months, I have been applying for positions and have not been interviewed. I took the position to receive more job experience. What do you think?
2014-07-24 05:51:20 PM kathyhughes that is great...you have to start somewhere and getting the experience will help
2014-07-24 05:51:35 PM janicewatts That would be fun. I only have a littie van, we are trying to get the bus fixed. I have to borrow one from another facility
2014-07-24 05:51:54 PM kathyhughes What kind of activities are you doing in your new job?
2014-07-24 05:52:12 PM kathyhughes transportation is always a challenge!
2014-07-24 05:52:44 PM ginad So, my schedule just become more busy! I work 60 hours at my family child care, this course, and then work another 8 to 20 hours at the facility!
2014-07-24 05:52:58 PM janicewatts The residents are eating their tomatoes they planted. yum
2014-07-24 05:53:33 PM kathyhughes But the good part is that you are almost done with this!
2014-07-24 05:53:47 PM janicewatts what do you do there?
2014-07-24 05:54:35 PM ginad I am going to work Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday night and then every other weekend. On Monday, I am going to host a football game night, Tuesday, a book club, and Wednesday, I have not thought of anything. A part of me, says to continue to do what is on the schedule but I say why!
2014-07-24 05:54:55 PM ginad I know. I can't believe, I will be done in 4 weeks!
2014-07-24 05:55:02 PM kathyhughes You only have 3 more weeks of assignments and the final
2014-07-24 05:55:05 PM ginad I am the activity aide.
2014-07-24 05:55:08 PM ginad Yeah!
2014-07-24 05:55:34 PM kathyhughes I would ask the residents to see what they would like to do
2014-07-24 05:56:01 PM janicewatts I am too, but I run the department right now. It is a challenge
2014-07-24 05:56:14 PM kathyhughes Activities always go better when they plan them
2014-07-24 05:56:46 PM ginad That is what I am thinking. I know when one of the aides left, they stopped doing needle point. I could do that.
2014-07-24 05:56:55 PM janicewatts My residents and staff are pretty happy with what I plan.
2014-07-24 05:56:59 PM kathyhughes See if they want to

2014-07-24 05:59:56 PM kathyhughes I was just wondering as sometimes needlework can be hard to do
