Addressing the Challenges of Activity Directors in Senior Living

Activity directors in senior living communities face unique challenges when it comes to keeping residents engaged and stimulated. Finding activities that appeal to seniors with diverse needs and abilities can be difficult. Building programming calendars that meet the changing assessed needs of senior living residents requires the right software and data insights. 

Coordinating a calendar of events with limited staff and resources presents another hurdle. Tracking participation and demonstrating the impact of programming to leadership and families is also critical but time-consuming. Resident mobility issues make event attendance and transportation difficult to manage. And sparse volunteer support places further strain on an already overwhelmed activity department. 

The right resident engagement platform addresses these pain points by providing tools to simplify calendar creation, boost participation through personalized recommendations, demonstrably increase engagement with tracked metrics, and better allocate staff and resources to maximize impact. By leveraging technology to overcome engagement obstacles, activity directors can enrich the lives of every senior in their care.
