2016-03-15 06:23:51 PM kgates We had to get a House Dr order for the opportunity to serve alchol, and we can only serve 4 oz per resident. So we use very small glasses but it makes them feel like they have enjoyed a beer or glass of wine.

2016-03-15 06:28:25 PM kathym shensle I like the idea you are observing Purima dand Passover. What a wonderful history of a people who have been put down for many years. At our facility, we are having a rabbi come in to tell us about the meaning of Passover and show all the items on the seder plate and explauin what each one means. I am soooooooo looking forward to this.
2016-03-15 06:28:28 PM amber88 bunny prints...thats cute
2016-03-15 06:28:28 PM shensle yeah its like halloween but more religious

2016-03-15 06:29:31 PM kmykalw I think it would be awesome to get some other culture inflences in my home, but not only are my residents not open to it, my administrator is pretty against it.
2016-03-15 06:29:32 PM medwards today we had one of our activity aides who participates in a scentsy party bring in samples and use them for small group letting everyon smell them and guess the scent. it went over very well
2016-03-15 06:29:33 PM kmykalw Its really too bad
2016-03-15 06:29:34 PM kathyhughes Our Jewish Home would invite all of the Jewish residents from all the facilities to their events

2016-03-15 06:29:49 PM awalden Love the idea of having a seder plate, even though I have no Jewish residents I'm sure they would love to learn more about the holiday
2016-03-15 06:29:50 PM sue123 I think Easter in March surprised alot of people.
2016-03-15 06:29:50 PM shensle yeah there are good community building events for sure

2016-03-15 06:30:00 PM amber88 nothing is scheduled on my calednar either but i think that was because the director was leaving..so im gonna plan something but not a whole lot of people want to do anything.
2016-03-15 06:30:04 PM stacy30 left the chat room
2016-03-15 06:30:09 PM ninajacobs We have about 120 residents participate in the seder, it is a big deal
2016-03-15 06:30:10 PM awallen same kathy in our facility
2016-03-15 06:30:10 PM awatts a lot going on this month
2016-03-15 06:30:15 PM lakia1985 my residents and i are crafting together easter baskets for the grad children nieces and newphews
2016-03-15 06:30:21 PM mberroa I am still looking for someone to do something for Purim. I do have a group coming in for Mitzvah day
2016-03-15 06:30:22 PM jackie26 how is your new job amber
2016-03-15 06:30:26 PM lolita47 I loved working in a multi cultural community
2016-03-15 06:30:27 PM 34abigailam i think is good that all of the residents learn about the different religions
2016-03-15 06:30:28 PM kathym ninajacobs The items on the plate each have a special meaning. I am not Jewish, but I have heard about it many times in my church. It is a neat celebreation of a people's life whom their Creator loved without exception and how He wanted to protect them from harm if they would listen to the wisdom he had to give.
