What can you get for Grandma or Auntie if she’s in a nursing home or health related facility? She probably doesn’t get out much so her needs tend more to comfort items. Well fear not; I do have some gift ideas for the inactive senior woman.
How about these gift ideas:
- An attractive, yet soft and cuddly robe
- Comfy slippers
- A cool or warm nightie (depending on climate)
- A soft fleecy throw for those cool nights
- A piece of costume jewelry to show off if she has her meals in the dining hall
- Books (including audio), magazines and music CDs - first find out what her interests are
- A Walkman or MP3 player to play the aforementioned items - you may have to show her how to use these
- Home-baked goods, candy
- A gift basket featuring her favorite non-perishable goodies
- A gift basket containing hair and bath items like shampoos, fancy soaps, hand and body lotions
And, most importantly, visits from you! If Grandma or Auntie is ambulatory and able to go out, she would probably love a nice lunch in a pleasant restaurant with her favorite grandchild, niece or nephew.
