"Memory Lane"
To facilitate conversation with their visitors, volunteers and staff, residents are encouraged to place a scrapbook about themselves in their rooms. This can contain information about the resident's background, family, interests, etc. It serves as a great conversation-starter and enables residents and others to become better acquainted and perhaps forge closer relationships.
