Hey all I work in a Memory Care unit but I also help out in our other units as well ILU, ALU, SNF. Have a wonderful day everyone!!!!! Alan

Hello everyone. I work for a memory care unit and we like to try different things but we keep some of the same activities every month. We would like some different ideas about activities that have been successful or not so successful. I just like to try new things. Thanks for any and all replies. Alan

Vanessa. I have that specific cookbook. I took it to work but in the next few days I will get you the info. I used it when I was working in a SNF, but I now work in a Memory Care unit and we haven't tried it yet. If you e-mail me I will get you the info.My address is alan_asano@yahoo.com Take Care and I will get it to you soon. Alan

Barbara. That really sucks that they did that to you. It is hard enough to find quality people in this Industry and I'm sure your program was great. I just recently left my job at a SNF to work for a Memory Care Unit because of my former Administrator. Good luck .I'm sure you will find something really soon. Alan

hello barb. thanks for the reply. I would love more info on the boxes and any other ideas you or others may have. Can you send them to me at my e-mail address. It is alan_asano@yahoo.com Thanks, Alan
