Let's face it: as we age, we find ourselves taking different care of our hair, skin, and nails. Whether it's for the better or worse, we all face changes to our bodies that require our own unique approach. Just like at 40 we might not need the acne medication we needed at 16, we will find out at 75 that we don't necessarily need the same health and beauty products we needed at 40 years old.
In honor of all the Glamorous Grandmas (and Grandpas!) out there, we're sharing our Senior Beauty Tips this week!

February was a wonderful month in our Senior Solutions Management communities. Everyone was "feeling the love" and it was a joy to see all the fun photos from different celebrations. Of course, Valentine's Day was a big hit, but some of our other communities kept up with a "heart" theme for the month.

When it is time to move your elderly loved one to a senior housing community, there is a lot to consider during your search. You have to consider location, cost, flexibility of move-in date … by the time you realize that the senior living community needs to meet Mom and Dad’s expectations of their day-to-day living, you feel like your brain is totally frazzled!
“Can Mom get her hair done?” is a question we have heard many times. It’s also a question we love to answer because we are proud of the amenities our communities have available to our residents.

Here at Senior Solutions, we saw a lot of great things happen in 2015, like the addition of new communities to the Senior Solutions family!
One of those communities is Plantation South - Dunwoody, a beautifully secluded 57-apartment community nestled in the woods of Dunwoody, Georgia. Located just minutes from Interstate 285, Plantation South - Dunwoody is close to local landmarks, like Brook Run Park.

There are quite a few communities in the Senior Solutions family. We take pride in that we can offer consistent, quality care in each of them, but we also love that each community can take on a personality of its own.
We did some digging, and we learned how some of our communities are choosing to celebrate this holiday season!

Throughout the year, our staff and residents are blessed by the amazing amount of support they receive by the greater community. If you follow our blog, you might remember one of our recent posts about a local Chick-fil-A in Fayetteville, Georgia that brought food to their local Hope Memory Care Center in honor of Cow Appreciation Day. This meant a lot to us because the residents were unable to leave the community to celebrate in the restaurant.
A lot of times, even small gestures have a huge impact in our communities, which brings us to today’s blog post. What are some ways that someone in the greater community can give back by supporting senior living communities? We realize that this question might be daunting to some, so we have come up with a few ideas to help!
