What a joyful Artist Reception at Brightview Mays Chapel Ridge yesterday with Impressionist artist Megan Smith Strott! Megan's incredible pastel land and seascapes are often warmed by a brilliant setting or rising sun. This inaugural Avila Art Makers exhibit at Brightview Mays Chapel Ridge was attended by resident artists and art enthusiasts, and their friends and family. Jamie Pistorio, Vibrant Living Director, and her team were absolutely lovely and provided delicious fruit, cheese and crackers to nibble along with a bit of festive bubbly for the holiday season. Brightview's wonderful Art Therapy program features the talent of many residents, and we were pleased to have several of them at the reception. We were delighted with the chance to revel in Meg Strott's beautiful art with all of the guests- thank you Brightview Mays Chapel Ridge :-)!

Happy Thanksgiving! We are grateful to all of Avila's clients and their families for the honor of serving them. Thank you to Avila's intrepid Caregivers and office staff who serve with joy every day. And abundant thanks to Avila's partners in care- including our medical partners GBMC - Greater Baltimore Medical Center, LifeBridge Health, and Gilchrist Cares, as well as the over 40 senior living communities where Avila serves clients by providing personal, companion and memory care, as well as through Avila's art and musical programming. Pictured here is Gretchen's son Spencer (a student at Loyola Blakefield) who valiantly spent his first day of Thanksgiving Break delivering delicious Mouth Party Caramels to our wonderful partners at Brightwood Club Association, Springwell Senior Living Community, Brightview Senior Living Hunt Valley and Brightview Senior Living Towson. What fun it was to see everyone's smiling faces as they received Avila's Thanksgiving treats! Wishing you all a blessed Thanksgiving as we give thanks for you all :-)!

Last week Avila Home Care celebrated our 600 Caregivers for National Caregiver Appreciation week! During Open Houses at Avila's Towson and Annapolis offices, our Caregivers enjoyed delicious food, fabulous prizes and lovely conversation with each other and our Avila office staff. We are grateful to all of Avila's Caregivers for their incredible service to our clients and their families. Watch this wonderful video with highlights from our Open Houses:

Abundant thanks to our wonderful partners at GBMC - Greater Baltimore Medical Center for an incredible Caregivers Expo last week! GBMC is such a wonderful place to work- they care so much about the well being of their employees, and this resource fair for their employees is just one example- the goal of which was to provide resources for GBMC employees who work so valiantly to support their GBMC patients and families, while often they are also caring for their own loved ones. There were a few hundred employees who attended the event, and countless GBMC staff raved about Avila Home Care- they either have referred Avila to their patients, or have had Avila serve someone in their own family. "Avila is my favorite!" and "Avila's Caregivers are amazing- we refer our patients to you all the time!" were just a couple of complements shared. Avila's partners at Gilchrist Cares, and our friends at Alzheimer's Association, Greater Maryland Chapter, Mend Acupuncture - Baltimore, Maryland Doula Collective as well as many other resources for GBMC's employees were all there to provide support.
