What made you decide to become an Activities Assistant?

"I want a career as an Activities Assistant because I am creative and enjoy working with older adults. I was first introduced to this profession while visiting my grandparents in a retirement home. They had activities every day, and they asked me to join them in a game of bean bag baseball. On that particular day, they were short an Activities Assistant, and the Activities Director asked if I would mind helping her with the game. I had so much fun, and many of the residents said I should apply to become the Activities Assistant. That's how I chose this career path."
