Nursing Home Visits
I had talked to the activity director of one of my nursing homes prior to my first visit...She was thrilled. The day I made my first visit there...I just popped in at the second one. Went to the office and they said to make myself at home. The following week they even took me to every room and made my picture with each resident.... HOWEVER, I must remember it's a very small town. I do knock on the door of each room...if it's closed. If a resident is sleeping, I do not wake them but do leave a sticker to let them know I've been to see them. I've only done an activity room visit one time at each home and I did my magic routine that time. It was well received...but they enjoy my informal visits much more.
