Tuck's picture

Hope it's not too late

Hope it's not too late to respond, but I wanted to add a thought or two. I completely agree with the other posters and like Wes' idea above regarding the idea of extra pictures on the walls and in the hallway. They could even canvas the residents for family photos (themselves as kids or younger in B&W or today's grandchildren in color) which could then be rotated with new pics or throughout the hallways every few months or so.

Color, color. To add warmth and a sense of home rather than a nursing home. User friendy kitchens for those able and willing to cook or assist in food preparation. A garden for those wishing to putter or an area for potting plants. These they can even sell and earn proceeds for themelves or the home.

Just some thoughts.
