Laughter Boss originates from the philosophy that Laughter is the best medicine! The healing power of humour is well known – sharing a smile and a laugh connects people, it lowers stress, reduces anxiety, relieves tension, boosts the immune system and creates an atmosphere of positivity and warmth.
Bringing more humour and laughter into an aged care facility assists staff to meet the quality of life and psychosocial care issues of residents, especially those with dementia. The Laughter Boss in an RACF is the modern-day equivalent of the court jester.
