OUTDOOR STORAGE AVAILABLE!Lindstrom Senior LivingLindstrom Senior Living is excited to announce the upcoming launch of its innovative Meaning-Full Days program, beginning this January. Designed to transform the memory care experience for residents and their families, this groundbreaking initiative sets our community apart by emphasizing personalized engagement, proactive care, and holistic wellness. What Makes Meaning-Full Days Program Unique? Holistic Engagement: Residents participate in purposeful activities that reflect their interests and life stories—from clerical tasks like stuffing envelopes to helping in the kitchen or garden. These moments build confidence and a sense of belonging. Sensory-Rich Environments: Therapeutic elements such as era-appropriate music, calming scents like lavender and rosemary, and personalized visual cues (e.g., shadow boxes and posters) help residents feel oriented and emotionally grounded. Family Collaboration: We actively involve families in care planning and daily routines, fostering trust and continuity. Loved ones become partners in care, not just visitors. Care Partner Teamwork: Our interdisciplinary team—including caregivers, families, therapists, and wellness staff—works together to honor each resident’s values and preferences, ensuring truly individualized care. Caregivers round hourly on residents to ensure residents receive attentive, timely care throughout the day, promoting safety, comfort, and peace of mind. This comprehensive approach delivers truly well-rounded care that goes beyond traditional memory care, prioritizing dignity, meaningful engagement, and family collaboration at every step. In preparation for the program’s launch, our team has been actively training and r efining best practices to ensure a seamless experience. We are also thrilled to welcome Michelle Stodieck as our new Meaning-Full Days Coordinator—a dedicated leader who will champion the program and serve as the vital link between nursing teams and families to create personalized, purposeful care plans. Openings Available Now Lindstrom Senior Living currently has openings for residents to join our Memory Care community and experience days filled with purpose, joy, and connection through the Meaning-Full Days program. “Our goal is to provide residents with days filled with purpose and families with confidence in the care their loved ones receive,” said Ashley Carlson, Executive Director at Lindstrom Senior Living. “Meaning-Full Days is more than a program—it’s a promise to enrich lives through compassion and collaboration.” For more information about Lindstrom Senior Living and the Meaning-Full Days program, please visit progressivecaremn.com/meaningful-days-program/ or contact [email protected]. 30455 Lehigh Avenue, Lindstrom • 651-213-3696LIVE ON THELAKE!
