Life Care Center of Sierra Vista, Arizona, went all-out for superhero fathers! On June 13, the American Legion’s local chapter brought out 40 motorcycles for a Bikes and Barbecue event in the parking lot. Throughout the week, residents and associates continued celebrating with a superhero theme and took superhero photos of the residents. The facility held a patio concert with entertainer Mario, and on Father’s Day, all the dads got doughnuts and superhero gift bags.
On Father’s Day at Northwood Hills Care Center in Humansville, Missouri, fathers shared about their children and loved ones, and the facility did some Father’s Day trivia and cookie decorating, while at Life Care Center of Bruceton-Hollow Rock in Bruceton, Tennessee, associates served cupcakes and punch in the dining room.

The activity director, Victorial Naekel, reached out to some community partners to have all the activities provided at no cost. Tilopia Farms provided the fish, and the daughter of one of the facility residents provided the fishing trough. Tere Ovenell, social services director, donated the fishing poles. Associates set up a “tattoo” booth and a cooler of Dad’s Root Beer and non-alcoholic beer for residents to sip on while fishing.
