A typical breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Our Tilden Angels do the cooking in-house using fresh ingredients bought locally.

Tilden Angel Kadiatu is doing a great job leading some residents through afternoon exercise. We always try to schedule some movement activities in both the morning and afternoon, as many residents either like to sleep in late or take an afternoon nap. Afternoon physical activity is a great way to help mitigate sundowning behaviors for our residents with dementia.

It's Kung Fu Tuesday!

One of our residents loves martial arts movies, so we decided to make our Tuesday and Friday after-dinner movie a classic martial arts film. We have another resident who was born in Iran, so our Wednesday afternoon exercise is dancing to Persian music. What we have noticed is that we get better engagement from ALL residents when we make the activity program deeply personalized. When they see one of their friends having fun, they are more likely to join in. Unlike larger facilities where activities need to have general appeal to a large audience, as a small home limited to eight we can ensure that at least a couple times a week our residents are enjoying something deeply personal.

Who knew that David Greenwood, CEO of Owl Be There, could sing and play the piano? David was nice enough to entertain our residents after his tour today. Have a great weekend, everyone!

...I say, 'WOW'!

You can tell our residents loved the performance from the talented young ladies at Just Dance in Alexandria. We love it when we can have younger generations mixing with the older ones. Bravo!

(Yeah, I know. We kept the website name the same because "tildenmemorycareandassistedliving.com" is just too darn long)

The call came around 8:45pm last night. Rationally you know it was going to come at some point, but a small part of you held on to the belief that maybe she WAS superwoman and would live forever. But the call came. Assistant manager Blessing on the other end of the receiver announced in a soft, sad voice that Goodwin Hospice had had just pronounced time of death. Miss Irene, one of our very first residents, had passed. We are gutted. She was the head of our little Tilden family, our 110-year old matriarch and guiding light. A huge warm thank you to her amazing case manager Amy Evans, the whole team at Elder Care Consultants, and the incredible nurses and staff at Goodwin Hospice. Our hearts are broken, but we will pick up the pieces today and move on. Our residents need us. Goodbye, Irene. We love you and miss you.

Our residents LOVE it when I bring my kids in for a visit! This weekend we all had fun helping my youngest celebrate his 3rd birthday with a special Spider Man cake. With visits from high school volunteers and music performances from local school, we are always looking for opportunities to bring the generations together.
