It’s amazing what a makeover can do.
The remodel at La Loma Village is so warm and welcoming. Residents are taking notice.
Comfortable sofas invite our residents to sit and visit. A new piano bar encourages impromptu gatherings. Cozy seating areas offer places for quiet conversation.
The updated common areas are made for socializing and the new surroundings are already having a positive effect on the community.
At Sun Health, we believe that age is just a number. We support Masterpiece Living®, a cultural approach to healthy and successful aging driven by the belief that more is possible as we age. This approach focuses on four components, including social, spiritual, physical and intellectual engagement.
As we age, it is important to have all four pieces in our lives. But as we experience loss, this becomes increasingly difficult. We may lose a spouse who was the social planner in the household, or a close friend who encouraged daily walks. Without even realizing it, we start to lose those necessary components that help us age successfully.
Maintaining regular social interaction is particularly important. Without it, we become withdrawn and at risk for depression.
That’s why the fresh environment at La Loma Village is such great news.
The new spaces naturally encourage socialization and can help spark a conversation or start a friendship.
A resident living alone, for instance, may be drawn to the music at the piano bar or the lively group chatting around the fireplace. If that resident becomes more social, he or she could decide to try out an interesting activity or check out a fitness class with a new friend.
One component just builds on another, and soon that resident has a new lease on life. We’re excited to see what the new remodel will bring for all of our residents.
