Our residents enjoyed a much-needed Wellness Day filled with open conversations, laughter, and fun! 🧘‍♀️✨ Our PD even played a “guess the resident” game using only their voices—he definitely knows his residents! It was a great day to relax, connect, and enjoy fun games together. Wellness is important, and it’s a must!
