 Love
is in The Air – Host a Month of Romance
by Diane Morrow,
LNHA
Romance is a feeling. We can all feel romantic without being
in a relationship.
Residents of assisted living or adult residential facilities can
enjoy romance through a variety of activities.
What is romance anyway? The old dictionary I have says the word
comes from Latin
and means a short
lyric or tale set to music. More modern versions say romance is
courtship, the process of finding love, compassion, or a dreamy
imaginative habit of mind tending to dwell on the picturesquely
unusual.
We can get into a
romantic state of
being, by enjoying
romantic experiences.

Remember Write it Right:
“Not documented, not done” is the rule of thumb when
providing care. Forms, written policies, procedures,
care documentation, and written proof of training are
standard requirements for all care facilities. Better documentation
would prevent a lot of facilities from getting sued. |
