Activities & Events
Engaging minds and bodies
Providing a wide range of activity options gives residents abundant opportunities to engage their bodies and minds doing things they find enjoyable and appropriately stimulating. Our full and diverse activity calendar gives our sheltered care, nursing home, and memory care residents things to look forward to and provides bright spots each week that give a pleasant rhythm to life.
Restmor’s Activities Director is always trying to come up with new offerings based on resident preferences and our strong volunteer support ensures plenty of visiting individuals or groups sharing their musical talents. If you’d like to volunteer, let us know.
Being located adjacent to the beautiful Idlewood Park in Morton provides convenient opportunities for enjoying nature with our regular “Stroll and Roll” program.
