Positive Partner Nomination – Claressa, Life Enrichment Assistant

We proudly nominate Claressa for her outstanding contributions to our Life Enrichment team at Artis Senior Living. From the moment she joined us, Claressa has proven herself to be dependable, consistent, and deeply committed to our residents and team.

Claressa demonstrates exceptional teamwork and adaptability in a fast-paced memory care environment. She steps in where needed, embraces change with a positive attitude, and supports her colleagues without hesitation. Her reliability allows the team to function smoothly and confidently, knowing residents are receiving consistent, compassionate care and engagement.

What truly sets Claressa apart is her warm and approachable presence. She builds genuine connections with residents, meeting them with patience, kindness, and respect. In memory care, trust and emotional safety are essential, and Claressa naturally creates both. Her interactions help residents feel seen, valued, and comfortable, which directly supports their well-being and quality of life.

Claressa is an asset to Artis Senior Living because she embodies our values in action. She contributes not only through her work ethic, but through the heart she brings into the community each day. Her presence strengthens our team culture and enhances the daily experiences of the residents we are honored to serve.

After the bustle of the holidays, we’re leaning into what our minds and bodies naturally crave: light ☀️, laughter 🤣, and rhythm 🎶!​ ​

Throughout January, we’re exploring Play as Renewal – inviting residents, families and associates to reset through music and other multi-sensory experiences to ease stress and reawaken the rhythms that keep our days feeling bright and grounded.

​​Join us January 22 for our first Power of Play signature experience of 2026. 🎶 Rhythms of Renewal 🎶 is a shared experience of drumming, movement, and sound healing to awaken joy, deepen connection, and support well-being! 🪘🥁​​ ​

🎶 Far more than entertainment, music is a lifeline for people on the dementia journey. It’s one of the most powerful tools we have for communication, connection, and emotional well-being. Even as memory shifts and language changes, the brain’s musical pathways often remain intact longer than other cognitive systems. A familiar melody can spark recognition, soothe anxiety, energize a sluggish afternoon, or open a door to conversation that words alone can no longer reach. ​​

See how at Artis, music is a form of care disguised as play – and learn 10 musical activities families can enjoy during visits!

As we welcome a brand-new year, we pause with grateful hearts to reflect on the moments that mattered most: shared laughter, meaningful connections, small victories, and the everyday joys that make our community feel like home.

To our residents, families, team members, and partners, thank you for being part of our journey. Your trust, love, and support shape everything we do.

Here’s to a year filled with warmth, purpose, new memories, and continued moments of connection. We’re so grateful to walk into this new chapter together.

Looking for ways to enjoy New Year’s Eve with a loved one who has dementia?

Celebrations can look different from how they used to – and that’s OK. The goal shifts from recreating the past to meeting your loved one where they are now. Maybe that means bringing the party to them, or letting the evening end when it feels right.

The thing is, connection doesn’t require perfection. It just requires your presence. Small gestures can make a big difference – a familiar song can spark memories, a gentle touch shows affection.

Here are more ways to celebrate the new year together: https://artisseniorliving.com/6-ways-to-ring-in-the-new-year-with-your-loved-one/

Our Family Holiday Party was nothing short of magical. From an incredible spread of holiday favorites to a beautiful winter lights walk-through that had smiles glowing brighter than the décor, the evening was filled with warmth, laughter, and togetherness.

A heartfelt thank-you to BAYADA for bringing extra cheer by decorating our residents’ wheelchairs and walkers. Those thoughtful touches turned everyday essentials into rolling celebrations, adding dignity, joy, and sparkle every step of the way.

Moments like these remind us that the holidays are about connection, care, and creating memories that shine long after the lights come down.
