Happy Activity Professionals Week!!!

It is a special and exciting year to celebrate Abby Christensen as she was awarded Minnesota’s Activity Professional of the Year! 🏆
Abby’s dedication, passion, and creativity shine through in everything she does.💛

She has a true gift for creating activities that bring meaning, purpose, connection, and JOY 😊🎨🎶 to the lives of our precious older adults at Compassionate Cottage.

Abby understands that activities are so much more than “something to do” — they are the heart❤️ of quality of life. From laughter and engagement to those quiet, meaningful moments of connection, her work makes a difference every single day.

Abby's expertise, innovation, and genuine love for the people she serves makes a profound difference. We are so grateful to have Abby as part of the Compassionate Cottage family and so proud of this well-deserved recognition. 💐

Please join us in celebrating Abby on this amazing achievement during Activity Professionals Week! 👏💐🎉

💬✨ Get to Know Abby Christensen! ✨💬

What inspired you to become an Activity Professional?
My grandmother inspired me to care for older adults. I always enjoyed helping her with baking, cooking, picking strawberries, driving the golf cart to get the mail, and running to get canned goods from the basement. We would play dice and cards all the time at their house. I really enjoyed being with them and making so many memories together.

One fun fact about you that most people don’t know?
I like to do “extra” for people…I like to make sure they know they are seen and loved. If it’s from hosting Christmas to birthday gifts to everyday surprises, I love to make people feel appreciated and loved.

Favorite hobby or pastime?
My husband would say shopping…he tells me I’m really good at it😊 And I guess he’s not wrong, I do love to shop.
Otherwise, I love spending time with my family. Whether it's spent watching my boys play basketball, time outside, cooking together, watching movies or just hanging out. Any time with them is a gift.

What a wonderful night celebrating the heart of the Cottage—our amazing staff. 🎄✨

On Friday, we gathered for our staff Christmas party to say thank you and to treat this incredible team to a fun, well-deserved night together. The laughter, joy, and togetherness in the room reflected exactly what you bring to our residents every single day.

Your hard work, compassion, and dedication do not go unnoticed. The love you show our residents is truly second to none, and we are beyond grateful for each of you. It was an honor to celebrate all that you do—not just during the holidays, but all year long.
