This toolkit was developed to assist you, the caregiver, in creating unique activities that may help with keeping your “busy” residents occupied and in a happy place!

Residents living with dementia may not be able to tell you they are lonely, bored, sad, depressed, etc. It is up to us to identify the symptoms of loneliness and boredom and address them with enjoyable activities! Take a look at some of the ideas in our toolkit and see if they could provide some extra smiles to your residents.

If you have other great ideas you have found to work well with your residents, please share them and we can add them to the toolkit! Even more fun, share pictures of your residents participating in an activity and we will share that as well! We know we are on a journey and some days are more difficult than others. Stay strong, continue the great work you are doing and have some fun with the residents. Click below to access!
