    My wife was a dietary manager in a nursing home. She ordered a bunch if those plastic baskets and checkered wax paper, like dairy bars used to use, for certain meals ( fish,burgers,hot dogs) . The residents were thrilled and you could see them remembering how it was when they were young. Something that simple made a big impact on them

    I used to work with Alzheimers patients and I really tried to make any moment nice for them. Like going for walks and listening to the same story over and over and acting like I never heard it before. Or this one guy loved getting shaved so I done that every time I was there.
    But although it was a bad experience and very sad. I truly can appreciate life more after it.

LIke they'd feel back in the 50s, but somehow darkened and brooding.

    I think it should be outside, it looks kinda depressing to me. Maybe it should have a whole town. With employees dressed in 50’s attire, and classic cars cruising around. Maybe they should just have them walk around. Have lunch, talk about stories, etc. I don’t like the way of them rotating around. But I’m not an expert, so I don’t really know anything. This is just an idea.
