🌿 This Week’s Wellness Win 🌿
At Americare, Wellness isn’t just a program—it’s a way of life. Through Flourish Wellness, we create
opportunities for residents to live with vitality, meaning, and personal fulfillment at every age and ability level.
Dimension of Wellness: Emotional
Activity: Veteran's Day Recognition
Story: Yesterday, we honored our community’s veterans with a heartfelt reception and the presentation of ornaments recognizing their military branches. Together, we spent the day reminiscing about loved ones who served, poring over cherished photographs that commemorate their sacrifices, and acknowledging the profound contributions of veterans’ wives.
We opened with a prayer, followed by a stirring performance from The U.S. Coast Guard Band. Their marches and patriotic music filled the room as a slideshow played on the big screen, guided by our resident veteran, Mr. Alton—a Bronze Star recipient. When “Army Strong” rang out, the gathering erupted in spontaneous applause, with many offering heartfelt thanks for his courage and sacrifice.
Two of our own staff members were also recognized for Veterans Day. Assistant Health and Wellness Director Denise Williams and CNA Dantrielle Riviere were presented with ornaments honoring their service. Both proudly served in the United States Air Force, and Denise went on to continue her career in the United States Army after completing her service to the Air Force. Thank you both for serving.
