St Patrick’s Day Fun at Essex
The luck of the Irish on St. Patrick’s Day at Essex Center on Park Street in Elizabethtown, New York, was in full force as the skilled nursing facility hit a grand slam of Irish cheer for the residents. With the staff being all dressed up in leprechaun green, the facility had a corned beef and cabbage lunch, and the recreation team, led by Beth McLaughlin, went from room to room passing out non-alcoholic green beer and pretzels for the residents. Then the afternoon had a facility-wide Fifth Avenue St. Patrick’s Day that topped it all off the Irish way, full of fun and love.

Care. Support. Positive Outcomes. Centers Health Care.
Centers Health Care provides rehabilitation, skilled nursing and long-term care for people with a wide range of needs. Whether someone is recovering from surgery, managing an illness or simply needs more support than can be provided at home, our staff is there to help.
The goal is not exactly the same for everyone. It may be returning home, becoming stronger, staying independent or simply feeling better and more comfortable from one day to the next. There will be progress, setbacks and difficult days along the way. Our job is to be there through all of it, and to help each patient or resident get as far as he or she can.
Sometimes that progress comes in large steps. More often, it comes in small ones. Either way, every step matters.
Our Steps to Home series follows patients through rehabilitation and the journey from hospital to home:
