Nazareth Home is a great place to continue the journey we call life. An integral part of our person-centered approach to care is our diverse activities program for residents and their families. We combine pastoral care and activities to enhance elder’s spiritual and emotional fulfillment.
Our programs are designed to enrich the body, mind, and spirit. With opportunities for group outings to many local sites, such as Slugger Field and Churchill Downs, our residents have lots of fun. We also partner with The Kentucky Center for the Arts, participating in their Arts in Healing Program, bringing talented and unique artists to our home. The Louisville Free Public Library provides elders with large print or audio books, and we offer iPads for our residents use. These are just a few of the activities we provide to meet our elders’ diverse hobbies and interest.
Alan Bernstein, a former military policeman in the Army and someone considered reasonably physically fit, started a downward health spiral in January 2021 after contracting COVID-19. That would begin a very difficult period in his life where he developed pneumonia, spent five long months on a ventilator, and was unconscious for a period of time.
One morning, Lindsay Brent, an LPN Nurse Manager, gathered with coworkers on the nursing team to discuss the newest residents who had come to Nazareth Home’s Clifton Campus. She heard the name “Frebet” and thought to herself how familiar a name.
As the year ended, it was natural to think about what was experienced in 2022. We began that year with hopes that COVID concerns would move away from us, and we could look forward to a new normal. COVID is still present, however. Maybe it’s a bit different, and we do feel more secure being vaccinated, but the precautions and requirements continue to be impactful.
A total of 13 students from Mary Ryan Academy in Louisville paid a very special visit to Nazareth Home earlier this month to meet their school’s namesake. Just weeks prior, they were excited to learn that they’d have an opportunity to meet Mary Ryan, who is currently a Nazareth Home resident.
