The dog days of summer may be over, but that doesn’t mean Chisholm Place residents couldn’t take some time for an educational presentation on puppies to start off the week.

Our Trunk or Treat yesterday may have moved indoors because of the chilly weather, but that didn’t stop the fun! Residents, families, and staff all joined in for candy, costumes, and laughter. Big thanks to Phoenix Home Care & Hospice, Compassion Within Hospice, and Good Shepherd Hospice for joining in on the fun and helping make the day so special. We also received a surprise guest, Popeye!

Our Trunk-or-Treat has been moved inside. It’s a little too chilly for our residents, so we’re bringing the fun indoors. We can’t wait to see all the costumes!
