Each year, National Assisted Living Week provides a special opportunity to acknowledge and appreciate the world of assisted living communities across our nation. The week is meant to spotlight the amazing efforts of caregivers working in these communities as well as the unique residents who reside in them. As we join in this national observance, it is a chance to reflect on the importance of compassionate care, celebrate the vibrant lives of residents, and appreciate the incredible staff who make it all possible. This week also highlights the importance of assisted living communities being a part of neighborhoods across the nation.
Assisted living positively impacts the broader community in so many ways. It’s fantastic that residents who transition from independent living to assisted living can still connect with friends and take part in various events. It’s a great opportunity to showcase all that assisted living has to offer.
Residents remain full of life, love, and enthusiasm, eager to have fun and get a little silly with special events and programs!
As National Assisted Living Week has officially kicked off, we are fully embracing this year’s theme, “Inspiring Generations.” This theme captures the nature of what makes The Parkway Senior Living so special: the blend of wisdom from our older adults and the fresh vibrancy of the professionals who work here each day. To celebrate, residents and staff will enjoy a week full of unique events that highlight the various service areas that contribute to the spirit and success of our community.
What I look forward to most about celebrating National Assisted Living Week each year is the week-long party with our wonderful residents and dedicated staff. We collaborate with department heads and community vendors to create unique events that showcase our assisted living. This year, we’re especially excited to welcome a special guest—Kansas City Chief’s KC Wolf!
It is our hope that by truly embracing the journey our aging adults take when they choose to make an assisted living community their home, we can inspire others to make the leap, join the wonderful culture, and truly thrive alongside others in their generation.
