The Vinton Assisted Living tenants finished up a fun-filled Assisted Living Week with a picnic at Celebration Park along the banks of the Cedar River.

 

This week is National Assisted Living Week and the A.L. tenants at Vinton and Davenport have been celebrating all week long!  The theme for the week is “Family is Forever”, and how appropriate that is!  The tenants at both facilities have become like family to each other and to the staff members who provide services for them.  What a special week.

Residents and staff enjoyed dancing and listening to the musical entertainment of new performer Janet Lieb.

The Residents at the Davenport Lutheran Home enjoyed one of their favorite late summer activities this week–shucking and eating sweetcorn!  The residents had a blast reminiscing about summers past and growing up on delicious Iowa corn!  What a fun afternoon! The Vinton Lutheran Home residents were amazed this week during the Solar Eclipse!  Many residents commented that this would probably be the neatest solar event that they would see in their lifetime!

Residents at the Vinton Lutheran Home enjoyed a trip to an old fashioned circus in Dysart, Iowa!  Under the big top, the residents had an amazing night as they watched the talented acts performed!

The residents at the Vinton Lutheran Home enjoyed the annual ice cream social this past Sunday!  The Ice Cream Social is put on by the Vinton Lutheran Home Auxiliary and is their biggest fund-raiser of the year.  Residents, family, staff, and community members enjoyed festivities from 2:00pm-4:00pm.  Homemade pie and ice cream were served, a country store was held, and there was awesome entertainment for adults and children alike.  A wonderful afternoon was had by all! 

Residents at the Vinton Lutheran Home enjoyed a delicious picnic last week in one of the campus’s gardens.  The weather was beautiful and the burgers were perfect!

The Davenport Lutheran Home hosted their annual ice cream social on Sunday.  This year was very special for Davenport as they dedicated their new memory care unit wing.  It was a day of fun, fellowship, family, and faith! The Vinton Garden Club helped the residents of the Vinton Lutheran Home create fresh bouquets with flowers from their gardens this week.  A great time was had by all!

The residents and tenants of the Vinton Lutheran Home Communities had a wonderful trip to the local Benton County Fair this week!  The tenants and residents toured the fair grounds on golf carts, rangers, and can-am’s allowing them to get up close and personal to all that the fair had to offer!

Construction on the new memory care addition in Davenport is COMPLETE!! We are thrilled with the finished product and can’t wait for our residents to be able to enjoy it!!
