Flu, Colds, and Covid Reminders!
We have entered the cold, flu, and COVID season. We continue to monitor your loved ones and take necessary precautions and provide needed care. When entering the building, you are encouraged to wear a mask especially if you have any signs of illness such as stuffy nose, fever, cold, or respiratory issues. It might also be advisable in these instances to reschedule your visit for another day. If you have questions or concerns, please see our RN and Administrator Mary Dietz. The health of your loved one is our first priority.
Announcement & Updates
Please cover your mouth when you cough and if you are feeling sick, check with Mary Dietz to see if it is safe for you and others to be out of your room.
Introducing GAME Tournaments
Beginning in February, Caring Hands will be hosting game tournaments for several of our weekly games:
Wheel of Fortune, Rummy, Dominoes, Crazy 8’s, Yahtzee, Sequence, Farkle
We will put the various games in each weeks’ activities on the calendar and invite all residents to participate. A record of the weekly game winners will be kept and at the end of February, those who have won the most at each game for the month will receive a prize! While Lynn and Tony may play at these games, they will not be eligible for the prizes. It’s going to be a LOT of fun. You are not mandated to play each week; however winners will be those who participate to the fullest extent and who are the highest scorers of each of the games. Residents are eligible to win at more than one game, for example Yahtzee an Dominoes, Sequence and Bingi, etc. We will be distributing a flyer with information and rules during the month of February! Let the games BEGIN!!!
