Evidence suggests that cooking is one of the most under-estimated and under-engaged resident interests in long term care! This Montessori-inspired recipe book is an initiative of The 80th Street Culinary Club, facilitated by The IMC Training, Education and Resource Center. Members of the club are encouraged to take active roles in the selection, creation and testing of new recipes - which facilitates leadership, opinion-sharing, and many moments of spontaneous improvisation! The result is this compilation of resident favorites. Each recipe has been adapted according to evidence-based principles to foster inclusion and strengths-based involvement, with opportunities for group members across the span of disease progression. Interested in testing it out the full book with your residents and team? It's is available for download on Issuu for $10.00, with all proceeds donated to The National Foundation to End Senior Hunger, the Club's Charity of choice.
