Thia is so true. There is a difference between engagement and going through the motions.

Activity calendars promise a lot, but real engagement is what you can observe in the moment.

During a live tour or video, notice whether residents are actively participating or simply seated nearby, and whether staff offer gentle prompts while adapting activities to different ability levels🤝🎶

Pay attention to the energy in the room. Does it feel alive with conversation, music, or movement, and whether there are options for residents who prefer quieter moments🧩

Engagement is quality of life you can see.
It reveals whether your loved one will truly thrive, not just reside.
