Families & Caregivers, Family Activities Things to Do with Your Grandchildren at Our Community
One of the best aspects of assisted living communities is the focus on socialization with peers and staff members. Seniors who feel connected to peers and social networks are generally more healthy both physically and emotionally, according to the National Institute on Aging. Fortunately, assisted living communities are designed to foster these supportive relationships between neighbors and caregivers, which can mean that moving to a senior living community has the potential to make residents healthier. At Arbor Terrace Shrewsbury, we create an environment and atmosphere that fosters connection, but not just between neighbors. We also encourage family involvement and simply love when we see grandchildren and great-grandchildren coming to visit their loved ones here. We know that research points to health benefits for grandparents who have a strong relationship with their grandkids and do our best to make our community feel welcoming to visitors of all ages. If you are wondering whether we offer enough activities that include grandchildren on our campus, here are just a few ideas of things you can do during your next visit.
