Finding Care

Therapeutic Recreation, also known as recreational programming, is provided in all personal care homes and in some other sites as an integral part of the overall care provided. Therapeutic Recreation has been shown to improve heart health, decrease blood pressure, improve strength, flexibility and walking ability, increase alertness, reduce falls, improve verbal interactions and improve morale and life satisfaction. Recreational programming is available for both individuals and groups and is designed to meet one’s physical, emotional, cultural and social needs.
