Meet the newest group of “Certified Dementia Practitioners.” Yesterday, team members from all three ECS Communities: The Covington, The Canterbury, and MonteCedro, came together for a day of immersive and classroom training, to better understand and care for the memory care residents at each community. The invaluable information sparked ideas, fostered conversation, and created a deep understanding of those who live with cognitive challenges. Thank you to ECS for providing this wonderful and essential training for the teams.

As part of MonteCedro’s Emergency Preparedness, this week “Go Bags,” were distributed to all of the residents. Stocked with a suggested list of items to pack, battery charger, flashlight, and more…the bags will be a lifesaver in an emergency.

Today the team simulated an earthquake and initiated MonteCedro’s Incident Command. The drill was part of the “Great California Shakeout” that will take place statewide tomorrow. The management team worked with residents to evaluate the drill and identify areas of improvement. It was a successful day of training and conversation to help us be prepared in the event of an emergency.

Today began several days of classroom and immersive dementia training, across all of the ECS campuses. Creating a safe, engaging, and inclusive community starts with the most vulnerable residents. The education that the team is being provided with, will not only enhance the lives of the residents, but also the experience and understanding of those who care for them.

Last week, several brave residents took to the mic, to sing at karaoke night. A wide variety of songs were chosen, some hits and some a bit more rare. It was a fabulous night of fun, friends, and song!

A big “Thank You,” to Dr. Nivedita Mahesh, from Cal Tech, for presenting “Farside: Exploring the Cosmos from the Moon.” Dr. Mahesh was fascinating to listen to and her lecture sparked wonderful questions from the residents and great conversation.
