Our hearts are what keep us strong and healthy. Good heart health is important at every age, but especially for seniors looking to live a long and bountiful life. In recognition of World Heart Day on September 29th, here are some helpful tips to keep your heart healthy and strong.

The second week of August saw residents and staff do some Emergency Preparedness skills and training that included water fights and a fun day of Wizard of Oz themed activities. Residents were whisked away to the Land of Oz but in the end, we all discovered that there’s no place like Wild Rose.

Residents at Royal Crescent Gardens went on a walk to Dairy Queen and ordered ice cream, milkshakes, and Sundays. Residents also had a great time painting together. Below is a picture of one of the sessions where each resident painted a meadow step by step. We have some truly talented artists in our midst!
