November is American

That’s a wrap on October! Last week’s events brought the fun, the engagement, and plenty of memories to every resident across the Health Concepts family. Thank you to every facility for going the extra mile.

Bayberry Commons: Three events kept the team busy. Staff dressed up in Halloween costumes and pajamas for a trivia game and a donut eating contest, visited the Scituate Senior Center to host a class on preventing falls, and joined Crystal Lake Rehabilitation & Care Center, the newest facility under Health Concepts, at Burrillville’s Healthy Aging Lunch & Learn.

Eastgate Nursing & Rehabilitation Center: Residents enjoyed a Halloween celebration with twice the treats. They first trick-or-treated around the facility, collecting candy and showing off their Halloween spirit, then Bombshell Betty took the stage for a Halloween concert.

Elmwood Nursing & Rehabilitation Center: Halloween fun was in full swing. Residents painted pumpkins, tested their Halloween trivia, and twisted their way through a game of Halloween Twister.

South Kingstown Nursing & Rehabilitation Center: Residents kept a favorite fall tradition alive by bobbing for apples.

Village House Nursing & Rehabilitation Center: The bake sale and Pink Out Day raised $415 for TLC for LTC, and participation in the Alzheimer’s Association’s Walk to End Alzheimer’s in Newport raised $931. Thank you to the residents, staff, families, and community members who baked, donated, and walked.

West Shore Health Center: Residents hit the road after dark with Dunkin’ hot chocolate in hand to see the spooky Halloween decorations around the area, laughing and chatting along the way.
