🍂 Fall Into Meaningful Moments

As autumn arrives, outdoor activities become even more therapeutic for our residents. The crisp air and changing landscape offer perfect opportunities for:

🍁 Gentle leaf collecting walks - engaging touch and sight
🎃 Pumpkin patch visits - connecting with seasonal rhythms
🍂 Cozy porch conversations - watching nature's transformation

Fall's mild temperatures and stunning visuals create ideal conditions for safe outdoor engagement. With proper layers and attentive supervision, every resident can experience autumn's natural beauty and cognitive benefits.

At Iris Memory Care, we believe fall might just be the most enchanting season for memory care.

🚨 4 Simple Ways to Prevent Falls

Falls are the leading cause of injury in seniors, but they're often preventable:

1️⃣ Remove hazards - Clear walkways, secure rugs, improve lighting
2️⃣ Stay active - Regular exercise improves balance and strength
3️⃣ Review medications - Some cause dizziness or drowsiness
4️⃣ Use assistive devices - Grab bars, walkers, proper footwear

At Iris Memory Care, fall prevention is built into everything we do - from safe environments to strength-building activities.

This week we had our Bake Sale Fundraiser where it was all hands on deck baking all of the orders that our families placed! Our team had so much fun and the residents did such a wonderful job!

Baking activities tend to be a huge hit with our group and we incorporate that into our planning often. It’s amazing to see the muscle memory kick in and hear the stories that come along with it.

Thank you to everyone who placed orders or donates to our fundraiser for the Walk to End Alzheimer’s 2025! 💜

We got some tickets to the OKC Thunder Finals game tonight in OKC and drew names from a hat from a pool of our full time OKC team members. Kayla Cavner is the Exective Director of our NW OKC community, and is Ndzei Achidi is a caregiver full time for our Edmond community but often helps our Nichols Hills community too. We were THRILLED these two got drawn from the hat because they both love our residents well and are having a blast at the game!

Cheer loud guys!! And have fun!! We appreciate you!

🍎🧠 Did you know that the foods you eat can have a direct impact on your brain health and memory? At Iris Memory Care, we understand the importance of nutrition for supporting cognitive function. Here are some key foods that can help boost your memory and overall brain health:

1. Fatty fish like salmon, trout, and sardines are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which are essential for brain health. These fats have been shown to improve memory and reduce the risk of cognitive decline.

2. Dark leafy greens like spinach, kale, and collard greens are full of vitamins and minerals that support brain health. They are rich in antioxidants and vitamin K, which is essential for forming new neural connections in the brain.

3. Nuts and seeds, such as walnuts, almonds, flaxseeds, and chia seeds, are great sources of healthy fats, protein, and antioxidants. They have been shown to improve cognitive function and protect against neurodegenerative diseases.

4. Whole grains like oats, quinoa, and brown rice provide a steady supply of energy to the brain. They are rich in fiber, vitamins, and minerals that support overall brain health and improve cognitive function.

By incorporating these brain-boosting foods into your diet, you can support your memory and cognitive function as you age. At Iris Memory Care, we prioritize nutrition as part of our holistic approach to memory care. Stay tuned for more tips on how to nourish your brain for optimal health and well-being! 🌟🧠
