3 Tips for Seniors on Maintaining Good Health and Wellbeing in Assisted Living

Good health and wellbeing is a necessity for seniors, especially those living in assisted living communities. MorningStar Senior Living of Sparks recognizes the importance of creating an active senior living community that provides the best assisted living care in Nevada. Through research, collaboration and a strong moral compass, MorningStar encourages these 3 tips for seniors to help maintain good health and wellbeing in assisted living:

1. Regular Exercise                                                                                                                        Physical movement is encouraged for maintaining good health in your senior years. With an on-site workout room and regular movement classes, MorningStar encourages seniors to engage in regular, easily accessible exercises. Many seniors enjoy walking around the courtyard with a friend or family members, chair exercises, gentle yoga classes, or other activities that promote flexibility, strength and overall well being.
2. Staying Social                                                                                                                                    Maintaining healthy relationships in old age is extremely beneficial to overall health and wellbeing. We are social beings. Even the most introverted senior requires love, care and someone to confide in regularly. At MorningStar, we create ample social hours and events to help seniors make friends and spend time socializing. Sharing hobbies and interests is another way to make friends. Active senior living is the best way to avoid senior isolation and depression.
3. Enjoying More Nature                                                                                                          Spending time outdoors and in nature calms our souls and helps improve mental health in seniors. Our courtyards and private outdoor patios help encourage seniors to spend time in nature. Going on walks, bird watching or just taking some time to read outside, are all great ways to experience more fresh air daily.
