Throughout the week, patients/residents are offered the opportunity to play a board game of their choice. One of the most highly requested games to play is checkers. While playing checkers may seem simplistic, the game itself is anything but. It is a game of skill rather than luck. In checkers the players must apply logical and strategic thinking, memory and concentration, and decision-making, especially under pressure. These are all skills that keep brains active and improve short-and long-term memory. It is a social game that truly entertains.
