Happy New Year from The Arches Assisted Living Facility!! Here at the Arches our residents love to celebrate and have fun. We play games that involve talking of years past. Visitors come to celebrate with loved ones. Our residents even enjoy a tall glass of Welch’s sparkling grape juice  (the residents and children think its champagne but we don’t tell them any different).  Our residents enjoy a day full of fun and laughter and we all look forward to a great year ahead.  We at the Arches would like to thank  friends, family, and staff members for making the past and the future here at the Arches a better place for our residents.   Happy New Year may this year bless you with all good things from all your friends here at The Arches Assisted Living Facility.
 

December reminds us all of a time for giving. We at The Arches Assisted Living Facility take pride in making December special for the Residents, staff, and Family members. Christmas is a special time for Giving and Celebrating. Our residents have Christmas on Christmas morning and Santa comes every year to spread joy and cheer to The residents, staff and the staff’s children.  It’s amazing how a man in a red suit can bring so many smiles to the faces of adults and children alike.  Thank you Mr. & Mrs. Clause for bringing so much joy to The Arches this time of year.:-D

Thanksgiving is a time for family and a time for fun. Here at The Arches Assisted living Facility we try to make these both happen all year not only on Thanksgiving. As you see our families enjoyed a traditional turkey dinner with all the fix-ins. Living with Alzheimer’s doesn’t mean your quality of life has to change.

Here at the Arches Assisted Living Facility we take pride in our Veterans. We have a few in our facility and many wives of former vets. It is amazing the stories they have to tell and the many pictures they have to share from back in the war days when they served.

Our residents here at The Arches Assisted Living Facility have many stories to share about our state attractions such as the SS Mount Washington. Many of our residents wrre in the military so they have stories of being on ships during the war. It is amazing how something as simple as a boat can stir up may memories of the past.

Here at The Arches Assisted Living Facility we take pride in giving our residents many Activities to take part in. Our residents made ghost for Halloween. Task like these are great for hand eye coordination.  Just because a loved one lives with Alzheimer’s doesn’t mean they stop living.

Halloween fun at The Arches.

Here at The Arches Assisted Living Facility we believe that laughter is the greatest medicine.  We have entertainers come to  the facility many times during the month.  Our residents had a grand time with the clown and her many tricks.  The residents were very interactive with the tricks and pranks she had to play.  After the clown left The Arches Assisted Living Facility they spoke of clowns at fairs and the circus many years ago.
