Our renovation project with Robinson Construction Company is moving along wonderfully. We wanted to show some behind the scenes of some areas that will be making a positive impact for IHS.
1. ICC private rooms are getting their own bathroom. All rooms will be getting updated storage for their personal belongings, paint and flooring. We want their rooms to feel more like "home".
2. All rooms will get new wall units for A/C and heat. This will allow residents to regulate their own temperatures in the room.
3. Our IC activity room is converting to the dining room. There will be a hallway connecting the dining room to dietary. This will provide better quality of food temperatures for our resident's meals.
4. We will have a conference room located at IC entrance. This will provide a dedicated space for meetings with residents and families.

A big shout out to Robinson Construction. We couldn't be happier to have chosen them for our expansion project.

Stayed tuned for more behind the scenes as the renovations progress.

After weeks of celebrating and connecting with family and friends, many people experience what is commonly called “post-holiday blues.” The emotional dip often stems from the end of holiday excitement, time with family, and financial stress.

The decorations are down, the radio has gone back to regular programming, and your normal work schedule is calling. This time of year, right after the holiday frenzy, is often accompanied by an old-fashioned case of the blues.

The reasons why are as varied as the people affected. Maybe you overindulged during the holidays, and your clothes are snug. Maybe you said goodbye to cherished family and friends you see once a year. Perhaps your holidays weren’t what you wanted them to be, and you’re disappointed, or your sleep schedule is off, your house is a mess, or your bank account is low.

Below are some tips to help you through the transition:
1. Ease back into your regular schedule (as much as possible).
2. Avoid social media.
3. Return to better eating habits.
4. Move your body.
5. Ditch the New Year’s Resolutions.
6. Give yourself something to look forward to.
7. Get some sleep.

When to Seek Help:
Post-holiday blues are common, but they usually go away within a few days. If your sadness, anxiety, or depression lasts more than a week or two, you may be dealing with something more serious, such as Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). Talk to your physician or a therapist. These professionals can help you come up with the best options for your health.

Happy belated birthday to Elvis Presley the "King of Rock' n' Roll".

Today we celebrated Elvis enjoying one of his favorite foods BBQ pizzas with homemade microphones made out of cake balls and ice cream cones. We also enjoyed watching one of Elvises' classic movies "Girls, Girls, Girls."

This morning we kicked off our first Coping Skills Group with Nicky, Social Services Director. Life can be difficult emotionally and having support during those times is so important.

Today’s topic was coping with stress. Nicky shared resourceful information on how to manage and improve stress in your life.

Every Monday our residents will have the opportunity to attend.
