@MLClark i volunteered for many years in a LTC facility, with others putting on "high tea" in dining room afternoons, running Snoezelen room events for Alzheimer's residents, etc.
those kinds of programs really helped people feel companionship, chatting with each other, instead of sitting alone in their rooms or (shudder) watching TV all day.
not up to that anymore, now have bird feeders and a garden rewilding project so i can rest between activities.
@MLClark thanks, it does indeed. euphoria.😎
@holon42 Thank you for all the work you put into helping folks be more present with one another in such facilities.
May the birds and the garden project offer well-earned reprieve for you now, too.
