Today was National Coffee Day so we had a coffee tasting social. We tried 8 different flavored coffees with a variety of creamers. All of them were so delicious and the activity room smelled amazing!
Today (Oct. 1st) is International Coffee Day! What drink are you celebrating with today? We fuel up each day to care for our residents like family. What are you fueling up for today?

Once we start to see fall foliage, evening sweaters, and our favorite pumpkin-spiced products back on the shelves, it can only mean one thing: flu season is just around the corner. Getting vaccinated before flu season is in full force gives your body a chance to build up immunity to the virus, and helps stop the spread before it starts. Read this post to get more insight as to why you need to get the flu shot as soon as possible.

Enjoying different flavors of coffee.
The weather is getting colder all across the country, which also means that our immune systems need to be supported! The team at Brook Ridge want to remind you to stay healthy by bundling up, wearing your mask, and getting your flu shot if you're going to be out and about in the coming weeks!

Daylight Savings time ended yesterday (11/1), and we had to turn our clocks back one hour. How are you feeling today after we all had to "Fall back?"

So, you have decided that now is the time to sell your home and move to a retirement community. Here are a few tips to help you get started:
1. Take it slow. Rome was not built in a day, and neither was your home. Expect this process to take a while, and do not rush it.
2. Do not be afraid to ask for help! Your friends and family are likely more than willing to help you, and you can hire professional help as well. Our community also offers an Easy Move Program that will help you or a loved one move to our facility. Reach out to us today to learn more.
3. When deciding to donate or sell your furniture, consider having the organization or buyer move the furniture for you. This will save both your back and your time since you will not have to move the furniture yourself.
You can do this! Reach out to us if we can help you in any way!
