Princess Diana once said, “Family is the most important thing in the world.”
That’s just how Waterford Estates feels about our residents and staff.
That’s just how Waterford Estates feels about our residents and staff.
WE ARE FAMILY.
A new survey from the National
Council on Aging indicated that senior health and well-being actually
depends on how much time is spent with family and extended family. 90%
of seniors said they felt revitalized when they spent time with others.
Specific health benefits included lower blood pressure, lower risk for
cardiovascular problems and lower risk for depression. Social
interaction also keeps your brain from getting “rusty.” There are plenty
of ways our residents stay in touch with “family” and maintain a high
level of social interaction: joining an enjoyable group activity, like
playing cards, bingo or book club; or taking an exercise class, which is
a great way to stay physically fit and engage with others. Our
residents stay in contact with kinfolk outside our community, too, with
phone calls, letters or e-mail.
Perhaps the positive change for your 2015 includes joining
our family here at Waterford Estates!
