Key Ingredients for Successful Holidays




Take time before the full craziness of the holiday schedule begins to get yourself prepared

Have a plan for the next few months, but be flexible enough to change them

Adjust your attitude from overwhelmed to “I can do this,” and see the opportunities for enhancing 
your resident’s lives

Note your community’s traditions for the upcoming holidays, but find new and exciting ways to 
freshen them up.

Keep your volunteers happy and get help from them and from co-workers when you are overwhelmed… and there will be days, no matter how prepared you are

Fill your life outside of work with people who you enjoy being with. Do fun stuff for yourself! Don’t stop planning when it comes to your leisure needs.

Understand that you will never please all the people all of the time. Do your best every day and have no regrets when you walk out of your community at the end of the day

Live, love, laugh, and have a happy Thanksgiving!
