Self-directed recreational activities included TV, books, board games, arts and crafts, outdoor exercise equipment, table tennis, and pool. Group recreational activities included a newspaper group, word wheel, gentle exercise, and movie night with refreshments. However, group recreational activities were dependent on nursing staff availability. In terms of improvement, several of the residents reported that there wasn't enough activities during the day. Additionally, two residents reported that some areas of the approved centre were cold, and one resident reported that communication with residents could be enhanced.
