Letters to SLCs

Not far behind the medical concerns of COVID-19, are the inevitable social and emotional effects that mandated isolation is having on the older adult population. Many of them spending countless hours alone. Looking at the same four walls, with no real end in sight. We know this is vital to keep them alive and well, but we can’t ignore how this must be taking a toll on their mental wellness. What can we do? One of the lost arts of our time is good old fashion mail. A handwritten letter, a drawing, a colorful picture. What makes it so meaningful, is that someone took the time out of their day just to show they care. Time. It’s the one thing we’re never promised and the most generous gift you can give. We have millions of children at home right now. Wouldn’t it be amazing to teach them how wonderful a selfless act can be? To give them an opportunity to make a difference with such a simple act of kindness? Choose any senior living community from the list below and address it to “Resident of _________”. If you are a senior living operator and don’t see your community listed but would like to participate, please email caitlin.lane@foxrehab.org and we’ll happily add you to the list!
