Did you know that handwashing wasn't always a standard practice in medical settings? 🧼

In the mid-1800s, a physician noticed that mortality rates dropped significantly when healthcare workers washed their hands between patients. This simple observation changed everything we know about preventing infections.

At first, many medical professionals resisted this idea. It seemed too simple to make such a big difference. But the evidence was clear - clean hands save lives.

Today, proper hand hygiene remains one of the most effective ways to prevent the spread of illness. It's amazing how something so basic can have such a powerful impact on health outcomes.

This discovery reminds us that sometimes the most important breakthroughs come from paying attention to simple patterns and being willing to change our practices.

Small changes can make a big difference in how you feel each day. 💙

We understand that staying healthy can feel overwhelming sometimes. That's why we believe in starting simple. One powerful habit that often gets overlooked is drinking enough water throughout the day.

When you're properly hydrated, your body works better. You might notice clearer thinking, more energy, and even better mood. It's one of the easiest ways to support your overall well-being.

Here's a simple tip: Keep a water bottle nearby and take small sips regularly. You don't need to drink huge amounts at once. Just consistent, gentle reminders to your body that you're taking care of it.

Your health journey is personal, and every small step counts. We're here to support you along the way.

Caring for someone you love can feel overwhelming at times. You're not alone in this journey, and it's okay to feel tired or uncertain.

Here's a gentle reminder that can make a real difference: Take care of yourself first. Just like on an airplane, you need to put on your own oxygen mask before helping others.

Set aside even 10 minutes each day for something that brings you peace. Whether it's a warm cup of tea, a short walk, or simply sitting quietly, these moments matter. When you're rested and centered, you can give better care to your loved one.

Remember, asking for help isn't giving up - it's being smart about your energy and resources. Reach out to family, friends, or community resources when you need support.

At Riverside, we understand the challenges you face every day. Your dedication doesn't go unnoticed, and your well-being matters too.

Santa spent some time checking on our staff at the Grants Pass office after he swooped into Autumn House to check on their residents and his friend, Mia!

Santa said that everyone is on the nice list so far… yes, even you Rhonda!

Merry Christmas Everyone!

I’m not sure if one party can show the amount of gratitude that we have for our Riverside Family, but we sure tried!!! Tonight we celebrated our team for a year full of life changing service to one another and to our community! We sang, we played, we danced, we ate, we won prizes, and we shared lots of laughter and love! Thank you, Riverside for a wonderful year! Without each one of you, we would never be where we are today… Looking forward to what 2026 has to bring!

Love you all ❤️
