We’re back… and Sarawood has a new resident. 💙🐟

On January 28th we welcomed a Betta fish.

The next day, after much debate and a raffle, he officially became…

✨ CHOWDAH ✨

What we did not expect?

The joy he would bring.

Phyllis spent the day “playing with him.”
Residents gathered together to watch him swim.
Even the different little groups started sitting together.

One resident smiled and gently “petted” the glass.

When he was cold, we added a heater.
When he needed more room, we upgraded his tank.

Now they are all asking when we can get more fish. 😊

This is what daily life looks like at Sarawood.
Small moments. Real connection.

If you are exploring assisted living for someone you love, come see it for yourself.

Then and Now at Sarawood ✨

In December 1950, this room held residents gathered together as children arrived to sing Christmas carols.
Seventy-plus years later, we recreated this moment with today’s residents and staff standing in the very same place.

The faces have changed.
The heart has not ❤️

This home has always been about presence. Sitting together. Being known. Sharing the season side by side 🎄

We love honoring the past while caring for the people who call Sarawood home today. History lives here. So does connection.

Closer Connections, Better Care.

Throwback Thursday at Sarawood ✨

This photo was taken in December 1950 at 1 Loomis Ave, when this home was known as the Holyoke Home for Aged People.

A room full of residents.
Children waiting in the doorway.
Holiday songs filling the space 🎶🎄

Some things never change.

Generations still gather here ❤️
Music still brings people together 🎵
Familiar faces still matter.

As Christmas approaches, we love remembering moments like this. Simple visits. Shared songs. Real connection.

If you remember caroling as a child or visiting loved ones during the holidays, we’d love to hear your story. Share it with us below 👇

Whole-Body Health Starts in Your Mouth 🟢

Poor oral health? It’s a heart risk, not just cosmetic.

Brush, floss, and see your dentist, your body will thank you.

From fresh air to friendly faces, we believe the little things are the big things in senior living. 💚

Throwback Thursday at Sarawood 🍎🎃

Looking back at one of our favorite outings from this fall. We bundled up and headed to McCray’s Farm for a day of apple and pumpkin picking. The cold breeze did not slow anyone down. The smiles, the chatter, and the hunt for the perfect pumpkin kept everyone moving.

We loved watching our residents take their time in the field, pointing out pumpkins, soaking in the sunshine, and enjoying the simple joy of being outdoors together. Days like this bring our community closer. They also remind me how much these shared moments matter.

We are already talking about where our next adventure should be.
