Lombard Place Assisted Living & Memory Care

The residents in Memory Care have been working hard for the last month crafting decorations for today's sock hop, including ice cream sundae centerpieces & vinyl records! Residents had a blast listening to music, dancing, and drinking root beer floats and creamsicles. Judy said, ..."shakes so nice I'll have one twice." Bev enjoyed the guitars and sunglasses. Laverne felt so moved she got out of her wheelchair to dance. Amee our Memory Care Manager and her entire team did an awesome job & we were all reminded of why we do what we do.

At Spectrum, we celebrate diversity in race, gender, religion, sexual orientation, ethnicity, and physical ability. As we wrap up our programs celebrating PRIDE, we want to thank the Gilbert Baker Foundation's President, Charley Beal, for presenting "The History/Meaning of the Rainbow ...Flag" to our residents & team members.

Lombard Place Memory Care residents spent the afternoon dreaming of Hawaii and then spent the evening starting to prepare decorations for the upcoming Sock Hop. Tonight's focus was on making vinyl records. Stay tuned for more nights of décor preparation and the party!

Residents made some Homemade Honey Soap. They started by chopping up blocks of Goat Milk Soap and then melting them. After they melted, they added the honey scent and poured it into the molds with the gold mica powder. Once it was all combined, we added dried flowers for some texture. They turned ...out great and smelled even better!
