Come To Senior Living To Make The Most Of Your Life

February seems to be a month with a lot of holidays and observances – we have Groundhogs Day, Washington’s Birthday, Lincoln’s Birthday, President’s Day, Valentine’s Day, American Heart Health Month, Black History Month and more.  These holidays and observations made me think of something else to celebrate – Senior Living.  Many times people seem to view the move to senior living as something to fear or something that’s the last thing they want to do.  We tell people all the time at John Knox Village East to come here to live….to make the most of your days.

Senior living should be a time of your life that you look forward to.  A time with fewer responsibilities, a time to be around those at a similar stage of life, a time where you can enjoy the activities you want to participate in, rather than those you have to engage in.  Besides, if you make the move to John Knox Village East while you are still able-bodied and able to enjoy all we have to offer, you will get so much more bang for your buck.  You’ll be able to join clubs, go on outings with the neighbors and participate in all that is offered.

Too many times, we see folks to wait until the house they’re living in is no longer manageable and their health begins to decline to make the move to John Knox Village East.  Unfortunately, if you wait until you don’t feel very well or your mobility becomes a challenge, you many not be able to (or feel well enough to) participate in all the offerings we have.

At John Knox Village East, we have Breakfast Club, Supper Club, we take field trips to places like the New Dinner Theatre, have Book Club, Craft Club, play cards and other games, enjoy ice cream socials and more.  If you’re still somewhat able-bodied and have an interest in these activities, your social calendar can stay as full as you like.

So come here to celebrate your life and make the most of your spare time. John Knox Village East can be a place where your social circle expands, your calendar fills up and you stay busy and engaged.  Research indicates that being around others and staying active is good for our longevity and health.  Call us at 660 584 4416 and we can share more details with you on all the benefits of calling John Knox Village East home.
