How to play nursing home bingo

  • First player with a row, column, or diagonal calls bingo.

Activity director tips

Nursing home bingo is as much about social connection as winning. Use the game as a conversation starter by asking players to share a memory connected to each word. This keeps residents engaged and encourages participation.

Printing tips

Print on cardstock using the largest comfortable font size. High contrast black text on light paper is easiest to read. Laminate the cards for a reusable activity set.
