Celebrating its eighteenth year, the Week of the Family committee and its volunteers are proud to contribute to the quality of life and the family-orientated community of The City of Good Living.

We were happy to make sandwiches for the homeless and create Valentine cards for Veterans at the VA. We had a lot of Resident participation this year and we are looking forward to next year!

Helen, Henry and Gordon were happy to make Valentine cards for the Veterans.

Nellie was getting very creative with her cards.

Helen was making sure we kept all of them in order.

San Carlos Elms Memory Care Program, Fusing two Activities

At San Carlos Elms we have enjoyed seeing the Resident enjoy their individualized music through the Music and Memory Program.

We thought we would try to combine the Music in Memory with Memories in the Making Program to see what new art work would come from our Residents.

We were pleasantly surprise with Becky.

Usually Becky paints birds, today while listening to her music she painted a beautiful picture of flowers.

Here is a sample of Becky creating.

Becky's completed work of art.

 

Mary is enjoying her music while watching the Residents paint.

Emilio was all smiles while painting and listening to his music.

Joan loves it when she has time to listen to her own music.

Faye was happy to show off her monkey she painted during this fused activity.

San Carlos Elms Wii Tournament

We started a bowling tournament Residents vs. Activity Department.

So far the Activity Department is 2-0, but last night the Residents came close.

We look forward to doing this monthly and practicing weekly to prepare.

We compete more with our own personal best scores than each other.We have more fun cheering one another on.

Bill just started bowling last week and last night he bowled a high of 145.

Joan has learned to control her hook through and is happy with her 130 average.

 

Activity Assistant, Ashley has so much fun with the Residents during this activity.

Activity Director, Kathleen loves to coach the Residents and is amazed by her average of 165.

San Carlos Elms Weathering the Storm

Happy Saturday!

Good Luck to everyone during this stormy weekend!!!

San Carlos Elms New Years in Review

For several years now the Residents at San Carlos Elms have enjoyed a special kind of celebration.

A "New Years in Review Party" where we take all the pictures we have taken through out the past year and show them on our T.V. screens. The Residents and Staff love to take a look back at the year.

We celebrate this occasion with cake, champagne, music but most importantly the release of the

San Carlos Elms 2016 Yearbook.

 

 

 

We will soon make the 2016 Yearbook available on the website.

Happy New Year to all!!!
