Life Programs

We provide lots to do

Activity adds spice to life. It can also help reduce anxiety, relieve stress, and maintain higher levels of functioning. Therefore, we encourage our residents to be as active as possible.

We like to think of our activity program as an Enrichment program that is designed with physical and mental stimulation.  We also keep personal ability and enjoyment in mind and provide plenty of choice, too. This allows us to guide each resident into daily endeavors that fit their specific care plan.  (Please contact us for a copy of our most current activities calendar, or join us for an activity anytime)!

Fitting activity to abilities & care plans

We understand that some of our residents are more adventurous.  Therefore, we encourage them to go out, to try new things, and to explore. Others we know would rather keep busy where they feel most comfortable.  For those individuals, we offer plenty to do at our Brookridge community. For our residents who have limitations and special needs, we tailor many of our activities to allow them to join in on the fun.
We realize that some people may choose to be left alone, especially new residents. So, we are patient and let them adjust at their own pace. Usually, as their comfort level grows, so does their level of involvement.

Studies have shown a direct correlation between the amount of activity and the quality and longevity of life, so we keep our residents as active they can be.

Friends join together for fun

Some people just have to be where it’s happening, so they join (and participate in) our clubs and social groups. In addition, some residents have the desire to hit the road and simply jump in our van and take advantage of our many outings and excursions.  These outgoing folks look forward to getting together with their friends to offer camaraderie, share conversation, explore the world around them, stimulate their minds and of course, have lots of FUN!
