How retirement homes continue to thrive
No one’s living a “normal” lifestyle right now. Many retirement home seniors have responded very proactively to first news of the outbreak. Here is a brief glance at how they have mobilized, and how communities’ staff and seniors are making the best of the situation:
Our look at senior living in the COVID-19 quarantine offers glimpses into communities across the country, with many different examples of how seniors and staff are adapting to social distancing. Many seniors have easily adapted to skyping, zooming and otherwise connecting virtually with family members. They are still celebrating birthdays and major milestones in their lives. They are still getting together with family and friends outdoors.
Our look at how retirement homes protect seniors shows how retirement homes have responded proactively to the new reality, often going above and beyond directives from the government. Their first priority has always been the protection of seniors.
Many people find keeping social distance a challenge, and seniors are of course no exception. Many move into independent living precisely because they love to be around people and love the idea of living in a social community where everyone is friends. This era is a challenge for all of us, and it’s one that the great majority of retirement homes in Canada have risen to meet.
