I work at a CCRC and we working on the best practices for moving residents from one level of care to another (particularly assisted living to long-term care).  Many residents are resistant (of course they don't like change) but will benefit more from our LTC activity program than our assisted living program (usually due to physical/cognitive decline). Does anyone have any experience/and or suggestions on how best to do this?  I am reminded that as activity directors we cannot force a resident to attend an activity but we can try to make the transition appear more appealing.
