At Matthew's Place, our affordable housing community in Albemarle, NC, our residents enjoyed a presentation on 'Living Well with Diabetes' last week. Carleigh Wetmore from the Atrium Health Diabetes & Nutrition Center of Albemarle shared lots of great information and engaged our residents in meaningful conversation about diabetes awareness and management. 🎤

🩸 The Atrium team also provided free blood sugar screenings, shared details about low-cost nail trimming services available at their office, and invited residents to attend their monthly classes and cooking demonstrations. They even offered access to a free personal trainer, which was a big hit with our group! 💪

To complement the theme, we served a healthy spread of fresh veggies and treated everyone to sugar-free cookies—a delicious way to reinforce the message of mindful eating! 🥕 🥦 🍪

💸 Making sense of finances can be a challenge, so our residents at Matthew's Place (our affordable housing community in Albemarle) were excited to welcome Monica Honeycutt, owner of Summit Book Solutions LLC, to speak about smart money strategies. 🧠

Not only did she lead an engaging session on budgeting and money management, but she also printed out monthly budgeting tools for our residents and shared practical advice on how to avoid phishing and fraudulent scams. In addition, she introduced creative ways about how we can save money on purchases, complete with tips on rebate savings and accessing low-cost services. 💰

Covenant Place resident Marilyn Bender has found serenity, inspiration, and purpose through her garden box filled with vibrant “sun patients” flowers. Even as fall settles in, their blooms continue to brighten her days—and her heart.

Each afternoon, Marilyn and her beloved dog Casey stroll through the garden, soaking in the beauty and calm it offers. “These flowers remind me of my home in Pennsylvania,” she shares. “Every day I look out my window and think about how good God is.”

Neighbors often stop by to admire the blooms and share memories of their own gardening days. “It’s good for my soul,” Marilyn says. “It gives me peace of mind and something to look forward to.”

Thanks to EveryAge and the Carol Woods Foundation, this garden has become a cherished space for connection, reflection, and joy—for Marilyn, Casey, and the entire Covenant Place community. 🌿💚

🍂 Fall brings the opportunity to honor many of our therapy team members since October is recognized as National Physical Therapy Month and October 27 is named World Occupational Therapy Day.

We're grateful for our therapy team and all the incredible support they provide our residents and participants, whether it's PT's work in reducing pain and restoring physical function, mobility, and strength 💪 or OT's work in helping individuals participate in meaningful daily activities – such as self-care (bathing, dressing), 🛀 🧽 work tasks, and leisure.

The care and compassion our therapists bring are unmatched! 💙

They gathered for a cozy and creative time, painting fall-themed canvases that tapped into each person's artistic side. The mocktail of choice – Cherry Lime Ginger Beer – not only added a fun twist but was a refreshing treat and a terrific complement to the season. 🍻

To add to the relaxed atmosphere, we played classic 60s music, which sparked memories and conversation among residents. It was a lovely way to slow down, reconnect, and enjoy the spirit of fall! 🎶🍁
