¡Feliz Cinco de Mayo! 🇲🇽💃

Cinco de Mayo came with fun hats, dancing, and a crowd that did not need much convincing to get the party started. The whole room was locked for fiesta time!

It's a lifestyle! 💪

With Michael leading the way, the holiday gave everyone a chance to move a little extra and keep leaning into a lifestyle that keeps us feeling good.

Spirit was in full stride for The Kentucky Derby!

WBV residents picked their horses, placed their bets, and settled in for one of the most exciting traditions of the season. Once the race began, the room quickly turned into a cheering section. 🐎

For WBV's Boot Scoot Boogie Bash, folks sure came dressed in their western best! Aubrey kept the country music rollin’ and the dance floor stayed busy all afternoon.

The food was "mighty good," and prospective residents were already talkin’ like they’d found their people! 🤠💙

Please join us in celebrating Michael McGowan, February’s Servant Leader of the Month! 🌟

“I am very honored to receive this award when there are so many hardworking people at Watercrest doing amazing work,” Michael shared. “In 2014, I was a passenger in a car accident. My journey through recovery gave me a deep sense of empathy and understanding for people with injuries and how that can impact their life. Having experienced challenges similar to what some of our residents face, I am committed to using that compassion to improve their quality of life in any way I am able.”

That perspective is part of what makes Michael such a meaningful presence in our community. As our Get Active Coach, he keeps residents engaged, encourages proper exercise, and shares healthy eating tips that help support strength and independence. His empathy shows in the way he listens, supports, and meets residents where they are each day.

We’re proud to recognize Michael for the care, consistency, and compassion he brings to our residents and team. Thank you, Michael!

Every great Memory Care team has people who show up with heart and patience. For us, two of those people are Liz (MC Program Specialist) and Charlene (Resident Care Specialist)!

These two are true superheroes in Memory Care, and we are lucky to have them. 💙🦸‍♀️

No Jedi mind tricks needed; our team brought the galactic spirit all on their own for Star Wars Day!

Our director, Jennifer Butler, and associates brought the Force into the holiday with a little Star Wars spirit. From everyday leadership to whimsical moments like this, they consistently prove that the Watercrest way has room for both purpose and play.

Around here, even a trip to a galaxy far, far away feels better when shared with a great team!

Jumbo Jenga is bringing out everyone’s competitive side in the best way! Jennifer had residents locked in on every move, carefully pulling piece after piece while the whole room waited to see if the tower would hold.

So far, 21 pieces is the record, and you better believe there is already talk of beating it next round. Anything think they can beat it? 🧱

Great Place To Work Week at Watercrest Buena Vista brought out the fun with 90s Day, Cheetah Print Day, Jersey Day, and a team that was fully in on all of it!

Weeks like this are fun, but they also say something real about the people here. Even in the middle of busy days and hard work, this team still shows up with energy, commitment, and a willingness to make the workplace a great one. 💙
