We Provide . . .
Relationships
It’s crucial that senior citizens continue to build and maintain relationships and are provided companionship.
Community
As well as companionship, the elderly also need to build relationships with others in their communities. They can do this by participating in group activities and themed events. The opportunity to socialize improves their well-being, as well as their mental health. It also instills a sense of belonging.
Respect
Seniors appreciate being honored with respect. This can be shown in even small gestures, such as addressing them with titles or simply engaging in polite conversation or sitting down playing a game.
Activity
Staying active can be difficult for senior citizens, but it’s more important than ever. It releases feel-good hormones and helps with physical and mental health.
Comfort
There’s no place like home, and wherever senior citizens stay, their comfort should always be a top priority.
Assistance League Coachella Valley provides nursing home residents with musical entertainment and friendly visits from our chapter members. Clothing and other personal items are also provided to seniors identified as being without other resources. In addition, greeting cards and gifts are provided at the holidays.
MAKING A DIFFERENCE
Visiting with older adults can help you become comfortable with our aging population and bring cheer to those who are isolated and lonely.
Without a doubt, music provides joy for people of any age.
