Hello everyone,
My Dad has been in his care home for 6 weeks now and I feel that there is a lack of activities I would like to try and do something about this and would like to organise some kind of activity for the residents to make their life more interesting, it must be so boring for them doing nothing much every day.
I just wondered if any of you had done anything like this and if so what did you do? The residents are mainly mid to late stage alzheimer's so it's hard to think of anything. My daughter has a very well behaved Labrador and a new puppy so I thought I may ask the home if she could bring them in maybe? but I would really like to organise something else like music or games for them?
I would appreciate any ideas.
Thanks
Claire xx
