ATRIA SENIOR LIVING ENGAGE LIFE EVENTS & ACTIVITIES

People Belong Together®

We're committed to helping residents reach their potential and connect with each other by enhancing health and well-being through programs that focus on building the mind, body and spirit.

Engage, explore and connect

We created our Engage Life® program because we know that an enriched, meaningful life can be lived at any age. Our trademark senior living events program offers daily opportunities for residents to express themselves creatively, learn new things, connect with nature, bond with others, have fun, and stay fit. Our Resident Discovery Survey allows the Engage Life Director to create a robust, customized calendar of events, so residents can continue to learn and grow in the ways best suited to their interests. If a resident has an idea for a new class or program, we collaborate with them in creating, developing, and leading it. Hear how leading a music appreciation group gave Ira's life new meaning.

Memory care engagement

A specially curated version of our Engage Life program has been created with the needs of memory care residents in mind. Music is regularly incorporated as it has been shown to improve mood, reduce stress and agitation, and promote focus and interest for people living with dementia.

 

At least two exercise opportunities are offered every day, such as walking, stretching and restorative yoga, dancing and working with weights. All of our memory care Engage Life programs are designed to make the present world more familiar and awaken memories of people, places and experiences from the past.
