- Genuinely care about helping the elderly

PURPOSE OF ROLE

To identify and provide activities that enhance the lives of the elderly people living in the Care Home. Activity coordinators need to be good listeners. If a resident has a particular desire to try a new activity, coordinators should do their best to make it happen.
