🍰🎓 Sugar + School Spirit = A Perfect Day! 🎓🍰

We celebrated National Tw***ie Day with both classic AND chocolate Tw***ies for our staff and residents—because choices matter 😉

On top of that, it was College T‑Shirt Day, with staff proudly repping their favorite schools while enjoying lots of sugar-filled smiles. Thanks to everyone who joined in and made the day extra sweet! 💙

🌈 A little color goes a long way! 🌈

In honor of National Rainbow Day, we shared rainbow keychains with our staff today—and they loved them! They’re now traveling on backpacks, keys, stethoscopes, and more. Just a small reminder of how much we appreciate our team and all the care they bring every day. 🌈✨

🐣✍️ A little Easter thank-you! ✍️🐣

To show our appreciation this Easter Sunday, we surprised our amazing staff with cute Easter pens—especially for those working the holiday. They’re always a favorite since they get put to good use… and sometimes magically disappear 😉 A small thank-you for all the big things our team does every day! 💛🌷

🌟 Employee of the Month – Congratulations, Paul! 🌟

Please help us celebrate Paul, one of our amazing LPNs and our Employee of the Month! Paul is truly one of a kind and does an incredible job connecting with each and every resident. His kindness, humor, and genuine care shine through every day.

Outside of work, Paul is a proud parent of 3 kids and an even prouder grandparent to 9 grandkids! A fun fact you might not know—Paul once played the drums for a belly dancing troupe! 🥁✨

Paul is always finding ways to make people smile and keep things fun, and we are so grateful for the positive energy he brings to our team and residents alike. We truly couldn’t do it without him!

👏 Thank you, Paul, for everything you do!

🌟 Team Member Introductions – Meet Katie P & Katie M! 🌟
This week we’re excited to recognize Katie P and Katie M, our incredible Social Workers here at Oakwood—and truly, the heart of our building 💙.
As our Lead Social Worker, Katie P guides the social services team and works closely alongside Katie M, who provides invaluable support in every aspect of the role. Together, they are often the very first faces our new residents and families get to know.
From managing new admissions, completing paperwork, and building relationships with residents and their loved ones, to coordinating discharge planning, Katie P and Katie M are there every step of the way.
They also lead care conferences with residents and families to discuss progression and goals of care, answer questions, and help bridge the gap—making sure everyone feels informed, supported, and heard.
💉 Fun fact: Katie M is also an LPN, bringing additional clinical knowledge and compassion to her work.
If you’ve ever walked past their office, you know it’s almost never empty—a true testament to how deeply they are trusted and relied upon. We are so grateful for everything they do and couldn’t imagine better people to be a new admission’s first solid contact.
Please join us in thanking Katie P and Katie M for everything they do for Oakwood! 👏💙

🎉 April Fools’ Day Fun! 🤡
On Wednesday, we had a little extra laughter floating around the facility as we celebrated April Fools’ Day! Our Activity Director, Beth, got things started with a very creative (and very fake 😉) menu featuring delicacies like baked old shoes, baked Mr. Potato Head, and chocolate-covered grasshoppers—yum! 😂
The fun continued during Bingo this afternoon when the local police stopped by to put an end to the “illegal gambling.” Thankfully, it was all part of the joke, and the residents had a great time laughing along with the surprise.
A day full of smiles, laughter, and playful funnies—just the way April Fools’ Day should be! 💙

🎉 Game Time Fun! 🎉
Today our activity program put a fun twist on a classic game of Hangman! 🧩
Residents took turns spinning a wheel to land on letters, which were then added to the words on the board. The spinning, guessing, and cheering made for lots of smiles and great engagement all around. 😄✨
It was wonderful to see everyone having fun, thinking creatively, and enjoying time together. We love finding new ways to make classic games even more exciting! 💙

⭐ All‑Staff Learning in Action! ⭐
Yesterday, our team came together for an all‑staff meeting focused on learning about IDDSI (International Dysphagia Diet Standardisation Initiative). Staff had the opportunity to work hands‑on with food to experience firsthand the different textures and consistencies used to support individuals with dysphagia.
It was a valuable and engaging learning experience, and we’re excited to roll this out as part of our ongoing commitment to better serve and support our residents’ needs. Great work, team!
👏💙

🧦 Crazy Sock Day fun! 🧦
Yesterday our staff brought the energy and the creativity for Crazy Sock Day, and it did not disappoint! From bold colors and wild patterns to one staff member who truly went all out—rocking socks in her hair, a makeshift sock skirt, and classic crazy socks—it was the perfect little change to brighten the day.
So much laughter, personality, and fun packed into one day. We love seeing our team embrace these moments and have a little extra joy together! 💙✨

🎉✨ It’s National Sticker Day, and we’re STUCK on celebrating! ✨🎉
Today we surprised our staff with a bunch of delightfully punny stickers… and let’s just say, things got sticky real fast! 😄
Name tags? ✔️
Water bottles? ✔️
Clipboards, carts, coffee cups, and anything that would sit still long enough? ✔️✔️✔️
Our halls are officially 200% more colorful — and possibly 300% more pun‑derful.
Here’s to tiny stickers with BIG smiles!

🌟 Team Spotlight: Meet Frank, One of Our Assistant Directors of Nursing! 🌟
We’re excited to introduce Frank, one of our two dedicated Assistant Directors of Nursing and one of the very first friendly faces our new residents meet. If you’ve ever seen him around the building, you know he’s hard to miss — tall in stature, big in personality, and always wearing a great smile.
As the primary leader handling most of our new admissions, Frank plays a crucial role in making the transition into our community as smooth and comforting as possible. He’s the one gathering vitals, completing assessments, beginning admission paperwork, and ensuring we get any needed clarifications from the hospital so our residents experience the best continuity of care.
What many don’t know? Frank does comedy shows on the side! His genuine warmth and sense of humor help put residents and families at ease during moments that can feel overwhelming.
We’re incredibly grateful for the compassion, energy, and expertise Frank brings to our team — and we know our residents feel the same. 💙
Help us celebrate Frank by giving him some love in the comments! 👇😊
