Mini-Horse Tour Visits Kingston
The residents helped the Recreation staff prepare, and plate fruit pizza where the staff sliced watermelon into the shape of a pizza, then added a thin layer of cool whip and topped it with blue berries and strawberries. Then staff offered all of the residents and co-workers a slice. Making healthy food to be fun is a great way to eat healthy.
“Our residents deserve to be both happy and healthy,” said Jennifer Hall, Recreation Director at Granville Center. “We know that offering fun healthy food presented in a fun way where they can also participate goes a long way. Exercising can also be fun in a form of dancing.”
The program wrapped up with a sports themed party. Along with dancing and workouts like stretching, the Recreation Department served a fresh fruit cup, chips and dip, low calorie ice cream and brownies, and mini hot dogs cooked in a light BBQ sauce. Everyone had a good time and the residents loved the dancing part.

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:
