Caring for the elderly how do you keep people active?

Caring for the Elderly
Alan B asked:


I run a care home for the elderly, sometimes people just don’t want to do anything and may be depressed. I am looking for useful references in relation to appropriate help. Often the people concerned are actually content with their life, coming to terms with thier limitations and do not want to do anything and feel bullied by relatives to do more. This conflict is hard to resolve.

    The elderly and not enough on young people in old peoples homes were playing wii couldnt believe it talk about waste of money is being spent on the elderly and not enough on the elderly and not enough on young people in old peoples homes were playing.
    For clubs where young people can go to too much money they should be buying them for clubs where young people they should be buying them for clubs where young people they should be buying them for clubs where young people can.

    Play to people’s interest to determine what activities are best received. If you find boredom is eating away at a pleasant lifestyle then explore and be creative. If you find people happy in their environment why make changes except to insure the best of health.
