Delmar’s Valentine Activities
All decked out in red, Delmar Center on Rockefeller Road in Delmar, New York, is observing Heart Month as well as the upcoming Valentine’s Day holiday in a number of ways with their residents. Facility Administrator Yoni Lautman got together with his Recreation Department to create a fundraiser plus heart-friendly activities for the residents, such as red balloon badminton, a resident favorite, that took place on February 8th in the facility’s dining room. Additionally, the Recreation team headed by Director Amanda Ford, wearing all red, created an American Heart Association (AHA) heart wall with red streamers with a red merchandise table as part of the fundraiser that includes the names of individuals who contributed in order to combat heart disease. Residents also did various heart geared crafts and enjoyed receiving various heart-healthy snacks.

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:
