Hello everyone,
We encourage you to celebrate Active Aging Week, held from September 23rd through the 29th and sponsored by the International Council on Active Aging. The event will have “theme days” that focus on different aspects of healthy aging. This year they include:
- The WALK! With Aegis Therapies
- Wellness with Water (Aquatic Yoga or Dance for those communities with pools!)
- Nutrition for Strength and Energy
- The Silent Challenge (managing incontinence)
Go to the Active Aging Week website for more information on the theme days: https://www.activeagingweek.com/
And this link is a MUST visit!!! It has tons of great activity ideas for your community that other communities have done for Active Aging Week in years past…from small to large, simple to more elaborate. You’ll be sure to find a few fun events and activities that you can do with you residents! https://www.activeagingweek.com/resources-organization/planningguides/funideas.pdf
