Sax O’Claus Returns to Slate Valley

Always right on time, Mr. Luke McNamee, a.k.a. ,Sax O’Claus came to entertain the residents at Slate Valley Center on December 2nd to a very happy holiday crowd. Sax did his classic Christmas tunes by way of the beautiful sound of the saxophone has he did "White Christmas", "Rocking Around the Christmas Tree", "Silent Night", "Deck the Halls" and many more feel good classics. Nearly 30 residents came after lunch to enjoy Sax O’Claus and yes Luke made it out last Christmas as many locations started to re-open but last year, standing in nearly 18 inches of snow played outside the residents’ windows. "We were so happy he played indoors this year where he belongs," said Andrea Kelley, Recreation Director. "The residents just love him, all year-round."

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:
