My name is Kathy and I also was an activity Assistant, after reading your email I thought that I would let you no that a big screen tv is not out of the question. I was recently promoted to the possion of Director of Recreational Therapy ( Activity Director) and we were so in need of a big screen tv with limited $$$$$$ we begin a chef salad fund raiser for $5.00 the employee and or residents could build a salad, it only took 4 months and we are now watching our movies on a 42 inch flat screen tv. Hope this helps
