🥜 Happy Peanut Butter Fudge Day! 🍬
In celebration of National Peanut Butter Fudge Day (November 20th), our Oven Lovin’ Crew rolled up their sleeves and whipped up a delicious batch of homemade peanut butter fudge today! 😋

The kitchen smelled amazing, and our residents had a wonderful time stirring, mixing, and taste-testing their sweet creations. Nothing brings people together quite like a little fudge and a lot of fun! 💛

Great job, Oven Lovin’ Crew! 🥜✨

🌼 A Special Visit from Wayne Community Schools! 🌼

Today, our residents were treated to a wonderful surprise from the 10th grade class at Wayne Community Schools! These talented students spent time creating beautiful birdhouses and bird feeders, which they delivered to brighten our Memory Care courtyard. 🐦💛

The students also enjoyed a fun-filled game of bingo with our residents — and let’s just say, the smiles were everywhere! 😄✨

💛📚 ADOPT-A-GRANDPARENT: GRATITUDE CHAIN DAY! 📚💛
We had another wonderful visit from the fourth graders last week for our Adopt-A-Grandparent program!

This month, each student and their adopted grandparent created a Gratitude Chain together. Every link was filled with something they’re thankful for, and when we put them all together, it made a beautiful, meaningful chain of gratitude. 🌟✨

These visits continue to bring joy, conversation, and connection to our residents — and we are so grateful for this partnership!

Welcome to Corydon Specialty Care

We here at Corydon Specialty Care are committed to the concept that each patient deserves the best quality of life possible. We approach this concept as a team who works closely with the patients’ physician to develop a customized care plan that meets all the patients’ needs – physical, emotional, intellectual and spiritual. Our friendly staff, nurses, therapists and aides ensure a safe, homelike environment.

Located on the edge of Corydon, we provide private and semi-private rooms. Thirteen rooms are served for individuals suffering from Chronic Confusion or Dementing Illness (CCDI) such as Alzheimer’s disease. In this wing, we have increased safety and security measures and created a low-stimulus environment. In conjunction with individualized care plans, this dedicated area assists our residents to optimize their remaining functions, assists them in their losses, and provides an environment to minimize stress and barriers.

Physical, occupational and speech therapists are on hand daily to work one-on-one with each patient. Our state-of-the-art equipment allows each patient to maximize mobility, gain strength, increase flexibility and balance as well as speed healing from any injury that may have occurred.
