Bingo is a wonderful game. It allows the player to use his or her cognitive skills in an interesting but limited manner. The element of chance is always present and the social interaction that occurs between players nurtures and strengthens relationships. But can long-term care facilities do more to enable residents both mentally as well as socially? By its nature, long-term care can potentially create extended periods of inactivity for residents. Through imagination and ingenuity by staff, family as well as residents, the activity venues of a long-term care facility can become the shining star in the organization’s programming.
