In a personal care home, residents enjoy personalized care and attention while maintaining their independence. A wide variety of activities and experiences are offered in personal care homes to cater to the different needs and preferences of their residents. These activities not only help keep residents physically active but also stimulate their minds and promote socialization.
A day in the life of a resident in a personal care home may include:
Depending on the day, special events or holidays may be celebrated as well.
Read along as we explore these activities and discover what ‘A Day in the Life’ can look like for you or a loved one at Juniper Village at Lebanon.
The day starts with a nutritious breakfast served in a communal dining area. Residents can choose to eat with their friends or have meals delivered to their apartments if needed. After breakfast, residents may participate in gentle exercise classes, such as yoga or tai chi, to help them start the day feeling energized and refreshed.
Throughout the day, personal care homes offer various activities for residents to engage in, including arts and crafts, games, music therapy, and educational lectures. These activities provide opportunities for socialization and mental stimulation while also helping residents discover new interests and hobbies.
Personal care homes often organize outings and excursions to nearby parks, museums, or shopping centers. These trips allow residents to explore their surroundings and enjoy some fresh air while still under the care of the facility’s staff.
In between activities and outings, residents receive personal care services tailored to their specific needs. This may include assistance with daily tasks such as bathing, dressing, and medication management. Trained staff members are available 24/7 to provide compassionate care and support to residents.
Personal care homes also celebrate special events and holidays with their residents. This includes decorating the community, hosting themed parties and activities, and involving family members in the celebrations. These events help create a sense of community within the home and bring joy to both residents and staff.
Personal care homes offer a variety of benefits for both residents and their families. These include:
Personal care homes offer a safe and comfortable living environment for older adults who may need assistance with daily activities. They provide individualized care, access to healthcare professionals, and a sense of community for residents.
