“Being proactive” is the best way to approach any challenge in life. With the COVID-19 pandemic, proactive steps will save lives. Since doctors don’t yet have a cure, proactive preventive steps are the best available strategy.
Information regarding the COVID-19, or the novel coronavirus, is everywhere, and it can be easy to feel overwhelmed, anxious, or confused. However, one thing is certain: The risk of developing severe and dangerous complications due to the virus increases with age. This means that senior care and senior living professionals have been paying especially close attention to the science and research surrounding COVID-19.
Recently, The Arbor Company gathered to recognize and honor the leaders of our communities from the 11 states we serve. Our Arbor Leadership Conference is always the perfect time to connect with other Arbor Company teams, learn best practices within the senior care industry, and leave feeling inspired.
The Arbor Company knows what it takes to give retired seniors the best care and the most memorable experiences: It takes a dedicated team of professionals who are passionate about their roles. However, even the most stable community team can face hard seasons and difficult changes.
If you love someone with dementia, you know how simple tasks can be difficult. Buttoning a shirt, tackling a household chore or playing a game can cause frustration, confusion and agitation.
We are proud to announce that we’re the recipient of the Pinnacle Quality Insight 2019 Customer Experience AwardTM. Our communities proudly displays a continued dedication to best-in-class senior healthcare services.
