Connections Program

Our Connections Program is unique to assisted living and goes beyond traditional programs offered at most communities. The program is included with all assisted living apartments, and it complements our residents' individual needs and interests. This allows residents to participate in daily activities and programs that create purpose-filled days and close personal relationships. 

The Connections Program provides the tools to meet physical, emotional and spiritual needs. This can include music, crafts, gardening, cooking, educational and spiritual events, journaling, scrapbooking, historical tours, and much more.
