Have you ever stopped to think, what makes a good day for residents? With great conviction, they explain, a good day is: someone bringing you a drink when you are thirsty; being included in a favorite activity even though you didn't remember it was on the schedule; getting to sit next to someone you like in the dining room; or being taken for an extra walk. These are just a few of the things residents mention.
Topics: activities, person-centered
Audience: nursing staff in long-term care and assisted living programs.
