Specialized training and on-site consulting services are available for healthcare organizations on a contractual basis. Our services entail working directly with activities staff, recreation therapists, CNAs and PCAs to address specific issues facing each. Services include:

  • team building
  • mentoring
  • improving programs for more meaningful engagement
  • engaging older adults who are resistant to participation
  • program assessment
  • space planning and usage (indoor and outdoor)
  • identifying community resources
  • volunteer recruitment

Examples of computer-enhanced space planning images:

An empty, unused space with a wall of windows becomes a sun porch.

An odd shaped “bar” bolted to the floor becomes an old fashion soda fountain.

A plain cinder block wall outside becomes a beautiful garden space.
