Is he in Memory Care or is he in Skilled Nursing?
Memory Care should have activity coordinator that you could talk to.
Skilled Nursing may also have someone.
It sort of depends on why he is in LTC. If it is the dementia there should br things for him to do.
You could also bring things from home. I would keep an "activity box" in the car and just bring a different thing each time and swap it for what you brought last time. (Unless you take things back with you cuz things tend to disappear)
Get things from resale shops so if they go missing it is not a big deal.
I used to get blocks, toy cars, infant and toddler chew toys (not resale) cards and puzzles for my Husband.
Coloring books or puzzles might appeal to your husband.
What were his interests previously? Find things along those lines but geared for his cognition now.
