LisaRee 0 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 Was just wondering what everyone else had planned for National Nursing Home Week. Same ole story here...everyone has great ideas but when it comes down to it, most don't want to help. **sigh** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pennie 26 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 See if you can't get the admision folks to team up with you on this. Nursing home week is really for the community toknow about your facility. The admission folks go out & do PR calls to the doctors, hospitals etc. so see if maybe yawl could do 1 day of open house in the afternoon for a couple of hours. Have residents greet everyone as they com in & some serving drinks & finger foods. Have a community craft/garage sale. Set tables for so much to vendors in the community. Allow residents to buy tables to. Use the money raise for your resident council group. You would do the PR for this by posting it in newsletters/ flyers, signs out in the neighborhood etc. Ask the ambulance services to host a super bingo game by providing rolls of quarters to the residents. Be sure you thnak them in your newsletter. Just a few suggestions. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
