The holidays are right around the corner, and with them the roster of parties and family get-togethers that characterize the most wonderful time of the year. If one of your loved ones is residing in an assisted living facility, it can be difficult to include them in your family’s celebrations. With these tips, you can enjoy the holidays while reminding your loved one how much they are loved and appreciated.
Out On the Town
If your loved one is able, ask your facility staff if it would be possible to take them out for a day or evening of holiday fun. Even a simple outing like a dinner at a favorite restaurant or a get-together at a family member’s home can create fond memories and make your relative feel connected to their community.
Bring the Party
If your relative prefers to stay home, bring the party to them. At Arizona Homestead, you are always welcome to visit your loved one during the holidays. You can bring your own decorations, food, and even music. Many of our residents enjoy singing along to their holiday favorites and exchanging gifts with their family. By including your loved one in your holiday celebrations, you can remind your loved one of their special place in your life.
Encourage and Participate
Our recreational calendar is full of fun holiday events designed to provide enrichment for your loved ones. Many of these celebrations can be enjoyed with family members, so you have the opportunity to visit your loved one and ring in the holidays at the same time. By encouraging your loved one to participate in our events, you can make their holiday season one to remember.
