When I started my first Activity Director job, I was only a few years out of college. While I had worked with seniors in a skilled nursing community before, nothing quite prepared me for taking on an Activity Director role. Here are a few things I wish someone had told me in those first few weeks, months, and years.

There is hardly anything more rewarding for activity coordinators than an increase in resident participation. Weeks of hard work have paid off!

Here are a few tips that may help improve participation rates at your facility. Some you may be using already, others you may not have tried for a while.
