Thanks Folks for the support! David where in Ohio are you from? I am from Bryan, OH.

I have all the qualifications I need to be certified as an activity director. I told my administrator that I was going to apply for my certification and she made the statement why. She told me not to expect any more money by becoming certified. I was very disappointed with her response. Should I still go for it and pay each year and get nothing in return from my facility? Looking for advice.

I vote for honoring staff and residents both deceased and allive. Most people would participate in doing something like this. They will feel like they are paying tribute to someone they loved and also if gives the person who is paying tribute a sense of gratification. Great ideal!
