Coping and Well-Being for Seniors
Social support and personal control are possibly the two most important factors that predict well-being, morbidity and mortality in adults. Other factors that may link to well-being and quality of life in the elderly include social relationships (possibly relationships with pets as well as humans), and health. Our Bend long-term care community pays attention to peer companionship, and integrates interaction with all life forms, including nature, animals and children, into the daily lives of all our residents. In order to prevent loneliness and boredom, we also aim to keep the activities we provide diverse and ever changing, and provide our residents with opportunity for spontaneity and personal choice. We frequently invite outside entertainers to perform at our facility, we also invite the community's youth to become involved at our facility, and we keep the gardens and lobbies bursting with plant life.
