Cinco de Mayo at Triboro Center
Residents and staff at the Triboro Center celebrate Cinco de Mayo.
Wearing sombreros and playing maracas, the Triboro Center staff entertained the residents during Cinco de Mayo as they played everything from Mariachi music, to "La Bamba."
Everyone had the chance to sip on non-alcoholic margaritas and chow down on taquitos.

"We had such a great time going crazy on Cinco de Mayo and the residents were all smiles," said Rose Ferreira, Triboro Center’s recreation director. "We all had different sized maracas and the residents loved shaking them as well. The moods have really lightened up and as long as the residents are smiling and laughing, we are too."

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:
