NALW 2013 homemade happinessThe National Center for Assisted Living established “National Assisted Living Week” in 1995. This week of activities, events and community interaction is designed to bring residents, families, staff, volunteers, and the surrounding community together in celebration of seniors and to show them our love and appreciation. The theme for 2013 is “Homemade Happiness”. Celebrations are rolling in all twelve Senior Solutions Communities. We will enjoy fun events and activities like:

  • Happiness Heroes
    Recognizing those shining stars among us, we’ll be calling out the residents and team members that make every day just a little bit better with positive attitudes, contagious smiles and kind words.

  • Homemade Treats
    Our residents will be sampling wondrous homemade goodies like pizza, ice cream and cookies. Part of the fun will be making these treats themselves and with visiting loved ones.

  • Making Music
    Although we enjoy musical performances from time to time, we are especially excited to have various musical guests in this week in all of our communities to help us celebrate. Our residents enjoy just sitting back and relaxing, singing along or getting up and dancing.

  • Family Breakfasts
    We invited the family members of our residents to join us to kick off National Assisted Living Week. A scrumptious buffet of tempting treats was rolled out and fun was had by all.
