💘 Love Has No Age Limit 💘
Happy Valentine’s Day to our beautiful senior community and families.

Valentine’s Day is often thought of as a day for couples — but truly, it’s a day to celebrate all forms of love. Love between generations. Love in friendship. Love in simple acts of kindness. Love that shows up quietly and makes someone smile.

This week, we had the absolute honor distributing carnations filled with sweetness and heart to McHarrie Place residents. 🌸

Each carnation included a heartfelt poem — and what makes this even more special? The poems were written by thoughtful fifth graders from the 5th graders at VanBuren Elementary. 💌

Through this simple gesture, we were able to:

❤️ Bring smiles and connection to seniors at McHarrie Place
❤️ Remind residents they are seen, valued, and loved
❤️ Support local fifth graders in their fundraising efforts
❤️ Create a beautiful bridge between generations

There is something powerful about children writing to elders. About flowers placed gently in hands that have lived long, meaningful lives. About taking a moment to say, “You matter.”

This week wasn’t just about Valentine’s Day.
It was about community.
It was about kindness.
It was about love in action.

From our hearts to yours — may you feel appreciated, remembered, and surrounded by love today and always. 💕

Has this ever happened to you? 🏥

You're sitting in the hospital with your mom or dad, and suddenly the nurse says, "We're discharging them tomorrow." Wait, WHAT? Tomorrow?!

You're handed a stack of papers, a list of follow-up appointments, and instructions that seem impossible to manage at home. And you're thinking... "We're not ready for this!"

If you've felt that panic, you're not alone. Hospital discharge often happens faster than families feel prepared for.

But here's what you need to know: You have RIGHTS in this process.

✅ You're entitled to a written discharge plan you can actually understand ✅ You can ask questions until things are clear ✅ You can request more support if you don't feel safe managing care at home ✅ You can even appeal the discharge if it seems too soon

Questions to ask before leaving: 📋 What medications and when? 📋 What symptoms mean we need to call the doctor? 📋 Who do we follow up with and when? 📋 Do we need home health or medical equipment?

Don't let anyone rush you through this. Your loved one's safety depends on a good discharge plan.

Our blog has everything you need to know about advocating for a safe hospital discharge. 💙

Happy New Year! We are so thankful to have everyone in the community who supports Reflections Management & Care—and our mission with Reflections Memory Cafe.

12/31/2025

As 2025 comes to a close, Reflections Management & Care reflects on a year of strategic growth, strengthened partnerships, and expanded community impact.

We continued to advance our mission while positioning Reflections as a trusted leader in aging life care across our region—always grounded in people-first care.

A key milestone was the continued growth of our Memory Cafe, an established 501(c)(3), now a recognized community resource supporting individuals living with cognitive change and those who care for them. In 2026, our focus is on expanding access and reaching more populations.

It is a privilege to serve our community and the families who trust us every day. As we look ahead, we remain committed to intentional growth, sustainable care, and meaningful impact.

We’re just getting started.
