SEPTEMBER IS HEALTHY AGING MONTH
Myth #2 - Seniors are grouchy.

Whether it’s cartoon strips starring cranky old men, or sitcoms in which older “grannies” whack teenagers with their canes, the “crabby senior” is a stereotype with which we are all familiar.

It’s true that physical pain, depression, sensory impairment and mobility loss can take a toll on anyone’s mood and outlook on life. But gerontological psychologists tell us that in general, our personality traits remain the same throughout our lives—and many of us even develop a more positive attitude as we age.

Laura Carstensen of the Stanford Center for Longevity says, “In general, people get happier as they get older.” Asked about the stereotype of the grumpy old man, Carstensen said, “Most of the grumpy old men out there are grumpy young men who grew old.” Seniors who are experiencing an uncharacteristic negative mood should be evaluated for underlying causes.

WHERE you recover after an injury or illness is so important. A positive and supportive environment means positive clinical outcomes. At Lutheran Rehab, our person centered approach to therapy includes involving family and caregivers in your treatment as needed or requested. And if that means providing a space your family to gather, we are happy to oblige. We wish Joanne good luck on her continued journey to good health and thank her for entrusting us with her care.

Healthcare Environmental Services & Housekeeping Week is September 14-20, 2025

We know that Lutheran and the Lillie Mansion simply wouldn’t be what it is without the dedicated people who bring their all, day in and day out, and we aim to always foster that sense of appreciation which is so critical to our culture. However, during this week we are taking the opportunity to show some extra love to our dedicated housekeeping and laundry staff that ensure our facility is a clean, safe places for patients, their families and other staff members. For all that you do, from in-depth cleaning to simply providing patients with a bright smile to look forward to, thank you!
