October is a month to celebrate Residentsโ Rights Month. This month focuses on the consumer voice and is to honor residents that reside in our communities and those who have received care at ASC. It is important to recognize this observance not only this month but each and every day. At American Senior Communities, we believe that caring for others means personally knowing and valuing each individual as a person. We believe that each resident deserves to be known, recognized, understood and cared for as much emotionally as they do physically.
Great Day TV host, Patty Spitler, and ASC COO, David Stordy, discuss the significance of ASCโs most coveted employee award, the Quest for Excellence, which recognizes ASCโs most outstanding team members from our communities each year.
In the month of November, we celebrate National Family Caregivers Month. This dedicated time allows us to recognize and honor family caregivers. If you or someone you know is a caregiver, you know the holidays can bring a higher level of stress than normal. This year it is even more important to understand how to balance and manage that stress. Check out our blog for tips and tricks to help manage that stress throughout the holiday season. http://ow.ly/G4wQ50CmPZS
Proud to have served families for over 20 years! Happy Anniversary!

Even if you have had COVID-19, it is safe to get the vaccine and this can add additional protection without causing any harm.
If you have had a test that shows you have COVID-19 antibodies, you should still get the vaccine. It is safe and can increase your protection from future COVID-19 infections.
But we are still awaiting guidance as to when you should get them. The first vaccines will most likely be prioritized to those who have not had COVID-19 yet and have no immunity. After we finish vaccinating those residents, you will mostly likely come next.
At American Senior Communities, we were very happy to learn of the U.S. Food and Drug Administrationโs approval of a COVID-19 vaccine and are making plans to offer the vaccine to all residents and staff as soon as possible. We understand there are questions about the vaccine and invite you to learn more by visiting http://ow.ly/3p6250CM8ch. We hope you will join us in this fight against COVID-19. #GimmieaV
Yes. Even though you have received your vaccine, most of the people around you have not. We know the vaccine prevents disease in the vaccinated person, but it still may be possible to transmit the disease to others.
Wearing a mask, social distancing, and practicing hand hygiene protects those who have not been vaccinated, especially our residents in long-term care.

Today at Bethany Village in Indianapolis, Quinn Buckner, voice of The Indiana Pacers and ASC Team Member, received his second dose of the COVID-19 vaccine. Buckner, along with other ASC team members, is among the first wave of healthcare workers to receive the vaccine as part of ASCโs partnership with CVS and their long-term care pharmacy, Omnicare.
Buckner fronts the โGimme a V!โ campaign, an ASC initiative to educate the public regarding the vaccine. To view the educational commercials, click here: http://ow.ly/4kPz50DhYq8
