Hey, even rivals are FAMILY inside Bella Groves. 

🤘🏼+👍🏼 = 💜

James (CEO) and Carl (family member of a resident) have been working together from the very first week that Bella Groves opened in May 2022.

We are so grateful to ALL of our amazing family partners no matter which team they’re cheering for. We are always cheering for each other.

There’s a reason the ‘like’ sign is the Aggie sign. 👍🏻 Gig ‘em! 😃

Bella Groves had a special guest with us today. 

Known as @dementiadarling to her many, many fans and followers online and in real life, Carrie Aalberts, joined in for a day supporting our community’s mission. 

One special moment was seeing some of our beautiful couples making music together.

Using a one-of-a-kind musical therapeutic instrument called the Crdl (pronounced cradle), our residents and their sweethearts used touch to create sounds, musical notes and soundscapes together. 

Using conductive pads on a beautiful and pleasing to touch wooden instrument, a circuit is formed when two people touch one another or a person can also “play” it on their own. 

What’s really special is that it recognizes the manner, force, speed and other factors of how someone is touching another person. 

You can literally play a note on the Crdl by tapping someone on their nose or stroking their arm. 

It was so moving to see husbands and wives embracing one another in the way they’ve done thousands of times and have a completely new experience together. 🥹

Who wants to start a band together? 

The Bella Grooves! 🎶
Now here is a new way to use a walker… to help babies learn how to walk! 🥹 

We love the interaction that residents and families get to have each day.

Even our newly joined residents and their families jump into our group with open arms. 

Intergenerational connections are so vital to older adults, and Bella Groves is proud to be a place where our youngest family members feel right at home too! 

We are trying to achieve a very big thing and that’s to change people’s hearts and perceptions about dementia. It’s a tall order, but do you know how we’ll get there?

Well, just like this precious child learning to walk…

One step at a time. 👣 💜

“Get a community cat,” they said. 

“It’ll be fun,” they said.

They were right. 🐈‍⬛😻😽😸
This past week, we had the most wonderful group of volunteers come to Bella Groves and put on a German performance for our residents! 

We have several residents who have German roots, so it was fun to see them light up with nostalgia! 

These young people wore German-style attire, and one of the young ladies even made her own dress! How awesome is that! 

The young ladies took turns giving German history lessons, shared some of the German words they are learning, and performed many dances! 👯‍♀️

They proceeded to “hang out” and do a craft with our residents afterwards! 

JOY!

Just a bunch of ladies hanging out, getting to know one another, and reminiscing on life, love, childhood, music, and more. 

This is the beauty of community: reminiscing with others who have been in similar shoes and are in similar stages of life! 

Reminiscing is such a significant part of a person living with dementia’s journey. As many know, the PLWD’s long term memory is typically stronger than their short term, so at Bella Groves we focus on strengthening these strengths. 💌

Reminiscing can be accomplished in many ways. Here are some ideas that we utilize on a daily basis in our community:

1) Photo albums of milestones: High school yearbooks, weddings, births, festivals, events, etc. Creating a memory book together! 

2) Clothing/homemade items: Looking at homemade dresses they made for grandchildren, old school clothes they wore, prom or wedding gowns, etc. 

3) Music: Listening to old hymns such as Amazing Grace, country singers such as Conway Twitty and Merle Haggard, Kris Kristofferson.

4) Activities: Visiting a well-loved restaurant, seeing old pals, teaching someone how to do something they are proficient in (sewing), grabbing a cone from the ice cream truck with the nostalgic jingle, etc. 

Check out our upcoming blog post on reminiscing which will be found on our Bella Groves website! 💜😊
