Out and About with Overture Home Care: September 2024

September was a bustling month for our team, filled with engaging events, meaningful connections, and memorable celebrations. Here’s a recap of what we accomplished together!

Floral Arranging at The Stayton

We started off the month with a delightful floral arranging workshop at The Stayton at Museum Way. Residents gathered to explore their creative sides while crafting beautiful arrangements. It was a wonderful way to bond and enjoy the beauty of flowers together.

Meeting at Parker County Trending Women

Next, we participated in a dynamic meeting with Parker County *Trending Women*. This event provided a platform for networking and discussing initiatives that empower women in our community. The inspiring conversations and shared experiences left us all motivated to take action in our own lives and professions.

Celebrating Rehab Week (Sept. 16-22)

We celebrated Rehab Week in various ways, collaborating with multiple partners to highlight the importance of rehabilitation services. From special presentations to fun activities, we emphasized the impact of rehab in improving lives and fostering recovery.

Dementia Live Simulation at Belmont Village

Our team had the privilege of conducting a Dementia Live simulation at Belmont Village Senior Living - Turtle Creek. This eye-opening experience allowed participants to gain insight into the challenges faced by individuals with dementia. The feedback was overwhelmingly positive, and it reinforced our commitment to providing compassionate care.

Board and Brush Professional Referral Source Event

We also attended a Board and Brush professional referral source event, where we connected with local professionals while unleashing our creativity on personalized wooden crafts. It was a fantastic opportunity to build relationships and enjoy a fun, hands-on experience.

Quarterly Nurses Meeting

Our quarterly nurses meeting brought together our dedicated nurses for clinical reviews and expert insights. A special thanks to Dana Groggins, PA from First Call Medical Concierge, for sharing her valuable expertise with us. It’s always inspiring to see our team come together with a shared commitment to providing the best care possible for our clients.
