Assisted Living residents approved

As always, I review based on my residents' feedback, since they are the ones for whom I hire entertainment. We had Dave do a magic show for assisted living residents during National Assisted Living Week in September. He was good at engaging the audience and keeping their attention. Several of the ladies were still talking about tricks they participated in the next day. The only negative I heard from residents was that a few tricks were hard to see/hear while he was up close having another resident help. He made them laugh and kept them talking the next day... that's a win in our book!
