This Eden Alternative Podcast features Connecting Care leaders Lisa Smith, Mary‑Lou Duncan, and Sarah Romulus sharing how language shapes culture in our communities. An inspiring conversation that reflects the continued growth of Eden thinking within Connecting Care.

** New Episode Alert!** https://theedenalternative.podbean.com/

How do you shift the language across multiple care communities? This team would say ‘one word at a time and build from there.’ Tune in to hear the story of how Connecting Care Communities came together, using the Eden Approach®, and identified language that helped them create true home with the Elders (residents). As you will hear from Lisa, Mary Lou, and Sarah, the process is not always easy, but the outcomes are well worth the effort for both the employee and Elder care partners.

At Points West Living Prince Albert, a new initiative called Residents in the Kitchen is creating thoughtful ways for residents to be involved alongside the team. This month, residents worked with Head Chef Angelito to prepare cookie dough, taking part in something familiar and hands on. The program is intentionally designed to be accessible, allowing residents to participate in ways that work for them. Moments like these reflect the care and intention behind building communities where people continue to feel engaged and included.

Meet Vicky and Phyllis, two residents at Points West Living Heritage House whose weekly bingo games have become a highlight for both of them. At 101 years old, Phyllis relies on some help to see all the numbers, and Vicky always sits beside her, guiding her through the game and sharing in the excitement when she gets a bingo. Over time, their companionship has grown into a friendship filled with conversation, gentle encouragement, and quiet moments of connection. With Recreation Aide Kristen bringing them together each week, their bond is a beautiful example of how residents in Connecting Care communities support one another, creating meaningful moments and enriching each other’s lives.

At Providence Place, residents showed what can happen when people are given the space to try something new. A small group interested in singing grew into a 15-member choir, complete with piano and bells. With encouragement from Recreation Care Partner Kris, the group practiced together and chose to perform at the annual community gathering. Singing in front of more than 120 residents, family members, and friends was no small step, but they met it with courage and commitment. At Connecting Care, we are proud of communities like Providence Place, where residents are supported to explore new interests, take chances, and discover what they are capable of at any stage of life.

At Connecting Care, we are proud to support teams who take the time to truly understand the people who call our communities home and the talents that matter most to them. At Pearson Place, Glenn is a gifted artist who continues to express his creativity through painting and drawing, bringing joy to those around him. This past Christmas, Glenn created holiday-themed coloring pages for fellow residents. With the support of Recreation Care Partner Alison, his artwork was shared more broadly, celebrating his creativity and helping him continue doing what he loves. Stories like Glenn’s reflect our commitment to purpose, connection, and meaningful living across our communities.
