Engaging in Life

We want you to live life to the fullest. Providing interesting and varied activities and meals is one more way we promote healing and recovery. You or your loved one will have plenty of freedom to choose how you spend your day―from the activities you’re involved in to the food you eat.

Our experienced teams take the time to get to know you, your needs, and your preferences with the goal of providing you with an enriching and caring experience. We understand that no two people are the same. Our goal is to create an environment that promotes wellness in all aspects of your life.

Activities & Events

Nurturing the mind, body, and spirit

At every community, our dedicated activities team develops an extensive calendar tailored to your specific needs and preferences. We offer a blend of activities and outings that enrich the body, mind, and spirit. Activities range from weekly field trips into the community, to on-site performers, visiting school children and therapy animals, various groups and games to play, and of course, plenty of Bingo!

Communities also organize plenty of special events throughout the year. These may include cookouts in the summer, Mother and Fathers’ Day buffet luncheons, annual holiday parties, Sunday dinners and a trip to the drive-in theater complete with popcorn and candy. We also encourage family and friends to participate in any of these activities.

Common activities include:

  • On-site Movie Events

Social Services

Your social, psychological, and spiritual well-being
