Life at Hillside
Our Focus Is On Your Wellness
Life At Hillside Medical Lodge
Through our partnership with Lifetime Wellness, we are dedicated to providing our residents with fun, engaging activities each day. Our Life Enrichment Coordinator and a Wellness Assistant are on staff and are devoted to helping our residents. Residents typically have the opportunity to participate in 4-6 scheduled activities each day ranging from interactive cooking classes, music works, church services, aromatherapy, and more. Individualized requests for activities and resources can be made using our Wellness Request Card. Our Life Works Wellness Program focuses on the six dimensions of wellness.
Physical Wellness
Our physical wellness activities promote involvement in physical activity groups to assist with improving and/or maintaining cardiovascular endurance, muscular strength, balance, and flexibility. These classes promote healthy lifestyle habits and encourage personal safety. Activities include Body Works Exercise, Sport Fitness, Music & Movement, and Sensory Shape-Up.
Spiritual Wellness
Our spiritual wellness activities assist residents in seeking meaning and purpose in their lives. Individual activities are based upon each resident’s personal preferences.
Emotional Wellness
Our emotional wellness activities assist residents in managing their feelings and behaviors, expressing their feelings, controlling stress, and problem-solving. Activities include Music Works, Music & Memory, Memories in the Making, and Aroma Works, which utilizes aromatherapy to promote happiness and relaxation.
Intellectual Wellness
Our intellectual wellness activities encourage residents to expand their knowledge base as well as improve and/or maintain their cognitive functioning level through a variety of problem-solving activities, educational resources, and cultural activities. Activities include Mind Works, Wellness University, and Health Education.
Vocational Wellness
Our vocational wellness activities assist residents in the process of determining and achieving personal and occupational interests. Activities include Art Works, Chef’s Corner, Nature Works, Community Works, and Resident Council.
Social Wellness
Our social wellness activities encourage and emphasize creating and maintaining healthy relationships through talking, sharing hobbies and interests, and actively participating in social events. Activities include Wellness-on-Wheels visits, Life Story Social, entertainment, and celebrations.
Wellness Request Card
As of June, 2020 residents are given a daily Wellness Request Card with options to let our staff know what music, movies, puzzles, books, magazines, and what one-on-one activities they’re in the mood for that day. Think of it as a room service menu card for leisure activities.
