RENAISSANCE MARQUIS NINA LOVEL
As soon as we finish devotion we move into a Brain Fitness Program where the residents in group session play games like Wheel of Fortune or the Alphabet Game. We also sharpen our math skills with multiplication or use Reminisce Time to spark a memory and engage mental awareness. Additionally, we use a program that connects to a large screen television and displays trivia that is fun and stimulating for our residents. After a long morning of activity, it is important to refuel our bodies during lunchtime. After lunch, the residents are allowed to rest and watch a classical film of yesteryear or take a nap if they choose. Then we gear up for round two in the afternoons with something physical and mental. The residents love spending the afternoons outside in Renaissance’s beautiful garden courtyards. There we have raised garden beds and special garden sections where they plant and grow their favorite vegetables. Some of their favorites are cucumbers, squash, corn, radishes, carrots, green onions and of course, a Southerner’s kitchen staple, the tomato. Nothing is better than having the residents plant, water and weed in the garden and then harvest the vegetables. They love having fresh tomato sandwiches on white bread as an afternoon snack or adding fresh raw vegetables to their meals. Music is also an important part of our program. They play and sing songs of years gone by. Sometimes, they play music of artists like Hank Williams, Patsy Cline, Pat Boon, etc. Some of our residents stay active by doing their household chores such as dusting, sweeping, folding napkins and more. We love to keep busy and have a sense of feeling useful and needed through our Life Enrichment Program. Come and visit us at The Harbor at Renaissance Marquis and see what we have to offer your loved one in our Premier Memory Care Center. Find out how we can help to enrich their lives and give them purpose.
