2016-11-01 06:17:07 PM bri931 It's really hard to get my SNF residents to go on trips. Especially because the vans can only take 4 wheelchairs at a time. but i'm still trying to do it and just bring different people to different things.
2016-11-01 06:17:10 PM kerilforgues we have a sewing group that made two sided placemats that get put out for each meal. All are different colors. They really like those

2016-11-01 06:25:55 PM mbolling My residents like Walmart also but for the Walmart trips I have one resident that always wants to go and I try to make it fair for eveyone. If one of my residents go on one outing then the next outing they have to sit out to give everyone else a chance to go but she is veyr persistant and doesn't think I'm being fair to her. She also has a LOA for 4 hours but she doesn't use that time to go to Walmart when she can't go on the Walmart outing.
