Yesterday was for the birds… literally! 🐦☀️
We celebrated “Welcome the Birds” Day by welcoming our feathered friends back home as they begin their spring migration. Residents enjoyed making bird feeders and spending time outdoors in the beautiful afternoon sunshine. It was a perfect day filled with fresh air, creativity, and a little bit of nature’s music! 🌼🕊️

We’re excited to recognize Curtis in our 1440 Staff Spotlight! Curtis stands out for his compassion, reliability, and genuine dedication to our residents and team.
He consistently goes above and beyond—ensuring evening snacks are great, bringing a positive attitude to every shift, and willingly picking up extra shifts to keep our team supported. Though he works overnight and isn’t often seen by resident families, his impact is felt throughout the community. Please congratulate Curtis when you see him—we’re truly grateful for all he brings to our community!
