Other suggestions. Visit on different days and different times, so that staff don't know when to expect you. Put up pictures of your loved one when they were younger - wedding photos, holding children, etc. It helps staff see your loved one as a real person, not just a bed number.
ReplyDeleteI love these ideas, Niki, especially the photos from different times in the elder's life.
