2020-07-09 07:46:14 PM michaeld feliciasuominen Activities are responsible for decorating

2020-07-09 07:46:30 PM diovanneb i have residents who like all the lights on in their room, but there are others who rather just have 1 lamp on
2020-07-09 07:46:40 PM summerlane love aroma therapys!!
2020-07-09 07:46:41 PM susanpmazziotta Someone mentioned earlier mock coctails...this goes over well and just by adding a bright napkin or straws or fruit garnish I find it fun and everyone enjoys it.
2020-07-09 07:46:41 PM lwilliams10 yes i always raise blinds in their rooms when doing one one one. it brightens theier day to be able to watch the birds, traffic, etc.
2020-07-09 07:46:43 PM diovanneb I always ask them if they need more light or not

2020-07-09 07:53:28 PM tashawade Sound plays a big role when communicating with someone. If you are too loud then the person you are communicating with can get aggitated. If you are too quite then the other person can't understand what you are saying. It is good to have a good balance.
