Written by the College of
Occupational Therapists, Living well through activity
in care homes, is a comprehensive workbook featuring examples of activities
that care home staff can organize with residents. There are 5 workbooks, each meant for a
different user group, which include long-term care staff, residents and
families, long-term care management and occupational therapists. The most comprehensive and thorough workbook
is that meant for long-term care staff.
The tool is organized by the amount of time an activity takes,
separated by 5 minutes, 15 minutes, or an hour or more. The activities range from day-to-day
activities that help residents feel more at home in their surroundings, to group
activities, like sensory or reminiscence activities.
