Cheshire Home met with Eric Vicino from Rabson Rehab to have him present innovative shower chair designs and custom solutions that seriously rethink safety, positioning, and dignity in daily routines. This is more about our residents’ quality-of-life life than just an equipment upgrade.

Director of Rehabilitation Lauren Rosario, OTR/L, ATP, SMS, Lead Physical Therapist Bethany Greenfield, PT, DPT, and Liz Farley, ATP, COTA/L, ECHM with Numotion were all in the room, asking questions, sharing insights, and making sure we’re bringing the very best back to the residents we care for.

When you invest in knowledge, you invest in independence.

Cheshire Home residents recently hit the road for a fun-filled trip to Wind Creek Casino with our Recreation and Transportation Department and it was a WIN in every way. 💫.

From the moment residents boarded our brand-new bus, the energy was full of excitement. For many of our residents, trips like this mean more than just getting out. They are about independence, connection, and living life on their own terms. Whether it was trying their hand at games, enjoying the atmosphere, or just spending time together, every moment was filled with happiness.

This is the Cheshire Home way. Creating experiences. Building community. Celebrating independence. Stay tuned for more adventures ahead! 💙 For more information on Cheshire Home and the exciting things happening here, visit www.cheshirehome.org.

Liana is always on the go and her recent visit to Cheshire Home’s outpatient wheelchair seating and mobility clinic, The Wheelhouse, is one way she prepares herself to get to where she is going comfortably.

When Liana met with Cheshire Home Lead Physical Therapist, Bethany Greenfield, for an evaluation for ankle-foot orthoses (AFO), the goal was to find the right support to help her stay active, confident, and independent. With that goal in mind, Peter Buffington from Achilles Prosthetics & Orthotics in Ramsey, (pictured with Liana) worked closely with her to ensure the perfect fit. Every adjustment, every detail, was focused on helping Liana move more comfortably and securely in her day-to-day life.

That’s exactly what The Wheelhouse is all about: personalized care that meets with each client and helps them go even further. Moments like this are a powerful reminder that at Cheshire Home, innovation and compassion go hand in hand.

This year, Cheshire Home II proudly celebrates 40 years of providing a true home for adults with physical disabilities. Since 1986, this special community in Parsippany has offered something unique: six apartments where residents live full, independent lives in a supportive and welcoming environment.

“I have been here for 27 of those 40 years, and during that time I have seen firsthand how this home, which is not an institution, but rather six apartments for adults who live full and independent lives, has served so many people well,” House Manager Tom Barrett said. “The residents here do not require nursing care, yet they benefit from a supportive environment, both physically and emotionally.”

Thanks to the generosity of supporters, Cheshire Home II has continued to grow and improve with upgrades including a new kitchen, bathroom, roof, parking lot, and front sidewalk. These improvements make a meaningful difference for the residents.

“For 40 years, Cheshire Home II has been a place of independence, dignity, and community,” Tom shared. “It is my sincere hope that long after I am gone, Cheshire Home II will continue to celebrate many more anniversaries and remain a place where individuals can enjoy the safety, comfort, and dignity of a true home environment while living independent and fulfilling lives.”

🎓✨ Celebrating the Future of Care ✨🎓

Cheshire Home is proud to recognize the CNA Training Class of 2026 from K&G Career Academy pictured here with our residents! Over the past six weeks, these dedicated students balanced evening classes with their everyday responsibilities, showing true commitment to a career in compassionate care.

We recently had the opportunity to meet with three graduates for potential roles within Cheshire Home, and we are excited to share that one outstanding candidate will be offered a position after successfully completing her CNA requirements. Even more inspiring is her journey doesn’t stop there…she plans to continue her education to become a nurse. 💙

We love being part of this next generation of caregivers who are passionate, driven, and ready to make a difference. Congratulations to the entire class!
