Shop Local: Americare Senior Living offers a person-centered approach

As we grow older, it’s important to incorporate community and social activities into our day-to-day lives.

From exploring new hobbies and pastimes to volunteering time to embracing new challenges, brain-boosting leisure activities keep us physically active; they also boost brain health and protect the cognitive skills critical to quality and length of life.

Research has shown that brain health is a component of a healthy body – reducing the severity and frequency of chronic health conditions, lowering rates of depression and increasing overall lifespan.

Examples of brain-boosting leisure activities are:

• Playing cards or board games

• Activities that keep you moving, such as dancing or biking

• Embracing your inner musician by singing or playing an instrument

• Discussing world news and current events with others

At Americare Senior Living, we know that seniors today face many challenges that are out of their control. That’s why we focus on offering a person-centered approach that makes a difference in the lives of our residents and their families – including a full calendar of both on and off-campus activities and outings designed to work around each resident’s physical or cognitive limitations.
