This week, residents have been learning how to use Wellzesta--a wellness and connection platform that will revolutionize how residents and staff communicate.

Thank you to the fine folks from Wellzesta who came to campus and have been running training workshops throughout the week.

We also want to say a special thanks to our resident ambassadors who learned how to use the platform first and have been helping their fellow residents at these workshops.

Wellzesta will make it simple for residents to find the latest community news, events, dining menus, and more. We look forward to how it will make us more connected than ever before!

Owls 🦉 and bunnies 🐰 and snakes 🐍 and turkeys 🦃, oh my! We had plenty of wildlife visit campus last week.

Thank you to our friends from Hoo Haven for acquainting our residents and staff with a variety of animals. We got to pet snakes and a furry bunny and admired beautiful owls while learning interesting facts about them.

Meanwhile, resident Jan Barrett shared some photos with us of a rafter of turkeys right outside her front door! Thanks for sharing your wildlife pics, Jan!

Truly, you never know what wild times we'll have at Wesley Willows!
