We would like to introduce our most cherished resident, #MyrtletheTurtle. A 3-toed box turtle, Myrtle found her way to our community and into our hearts. She’s bringing so much joy to our #MemoryCare neighborhood. This series will highlight the love and connection between animals and humans. We ...are excited to show you how Myrtle the Turtle is enriching the lives of our incredible residents.

Without further ado, Myrtle the Turtle: The Series🐢

For a woman whose life has been fueled by her adventurous spirit, being able to check off all 50 states from her travel list is a great accomplishment. Pat is a woman who moved quite frequently due to the nature of her husband’s job. Pat and her husband have visited every state except for one, ...Alaska.

Pat has a great passion for traveling as well as painting. So, it came as no surprise when Pat said her @wishofalifetime was to travel to Alaska to take a painting class.

Thank you @wishofalifetime, for helping Pat and her daughter get to Alaska. They both attended an outdoor painting class and enjoyed every second of it!

When it’s Friday and the cocktails hit 🍹

Life is full of beauty. Notice it. 🌹

Palos Heights hosted a family "Carnival for a Cause" raising more than $2,000 for the @alzassociation in one night! The evening was filled with tasty treats, an array of carnival games, live music, balloon creations, and the unanimous favorite: the dunk tank 😂

We live in a time where we constantly see people, but do we actually SEE them?

What inherent biases cause us to judge people in our daily lives? Implicit bias occurs unintentionally and affects judgments, decisions, and behaviors. It is the elephant in the room.

At Silver Glen ...Senior Living, residents and team members have embarked on a journey of self-improvement by taking the Harvard Implicit Association Tests. These tests measure the association between concepts such as race versus stereotypes. After completing the tests, participants will then engage in progressive programs that will provide a safe space to discuss the results.

Our hope is to understand inherent biases and cultivate change.

We are ready to address the elephant in the room.
