Latest News from San Carlos Elms and Grove

The Residents will receive their July Newsletters shortly. Each Newsletter going out this month has a Pen Pal Letter attached with it from Silicon Valley Cyber Leos Club. We are hoping to make a connection with most if not all of our Residents through this program. Thank you Silicon Valley Cyber Leos Club for making this happen safely through virtual letters.   

Our Residents are enjoying the video chats with their families.  The Memory Program  Tom is keeping busy by helping in the garden.  He also helps clean all of the Bingo markers. Thank you Tom!

Many of our Residents have family members graduating from grammar school, high school and college.  We are doing the best we can to make sure our Residents are not missing these milestones. Lillian was happy to see her grandson graduation from Santa Clara University this past Saturday.  Lillian's family made sure she had a proud "grandparent" grad sign. Congratulations to all the graduates of 2020!!!

During this time we have not been able to do our Activities like we normally do. Instead of having Current Events in a group with our Residents, our volunteer Carol has graciously donated her time to discuss Current Events with Residents one on one.  We are lucky to have such a dedicated volunteer during this time. Thank you Carol!!! Thank you Carol for keeping our Residents spirits up during this time.

Our Residents have enjoyed the video chats with their families and friends. Here are just a few pictures caught on camera. Bessie wasn't going to miss her grandchildren's graduation.  Alyce's family wanted to make sure Alyce and her cats were doing ok. Shirley enjoys seeing and joking with her family.
