It’s been an absolutely beautiful week here on campus! ☀️🌿

Yesterday, residents Peggy Gloria and Sandy Milkes took full advantage of the sunshine with a peaceful stroll along our scenic walking path. With nature in full bloom and smiles all around, it was the perfect way to enjoy ...the day.

There’s nothing like a little fresh air and good company to lift the spirit! 💚

Chef Mike’s Creations: The Pizzadilla Edition!🍕🔥

Recently, Chef Mike brought the flavor to our cafe with a fun twist on two favorites — a Pizzadilla! Packed with pepperoni, mozzarella, parmesan, and marinara, all brushed with garlic butter and grilled to perfection… let’s ...just say, it was a hit with our residents! 👨‍🍳👏

We have beds available in our award-winning Health Center, offering Skilled Nursing, Rehabilitative Care, Respite Care, and Hospice Care, all in one supportive environment.

We provide a full menu of services and amenities to ensure every resident receives the care and support they need, ...along with the social engagement and activities they love—so they can live a happy, meaningful life.

Staying active has never been more fun! Residents enjoyed a great Barre Fitness session with Megan last Thursday—stretching, strengthening, and smiling every step of the way. 💪🩰

Good mornings just got even better at our community! We’re now offering a convenient continental breakfast right in the dining room—complete with fresh fruit, pastries, coffee, and more. ☕🍎🥐

Our residents are loving the new grab-and-go option, making it easier than ever to ...start the day their way—quickly, independently, and deliciously!

We held a festive Easter egg hunt yesterday at our community and it was a huge hit! Residents had a blast searching for colorful eggs hidden throughout our common areas— from the library to the billiards room or even the light fixtures in our hallway!

Special golden eggs held extra ...surprises like gift cards to our café, and we loved seeing the joy (and a little friendly competition!) as everyone joined in the fun.

One resident even shared her find with someone who hadn’t found any — just another example of the kindness and community spirit that make this such a special place to call home. 💛🥚🌷🐣
