Susanne-
You got it.  They have head injuries, a lot of our clients are elderly, and 
some have cognitive issues going on due to secondary infections.  But for the 
scavenger hunt, I listed many goals: w/c mobility, to help them get used to the 
facility and find their way around(so we tended to pair a client who had been 
there longer with a new client), and cognitive.  So the goals are 
individualized to what that particular client, and we put them in groups that usually 
mix 
what the goals are.  The scavenger hunt can work on higher level cognition:  
the clients have to work together in a group, they come up with a stategy for 
their group to get the items the fastest, etc.  Socialization is also another 
part of the group of course.

<the rest?)
