My grandma is a new resident, and I had the pleasure of staying with her for a week in November. She has had a pretty easy time adjusting to assisted living from her home of 50 years, thanks to the wonderful staff and programming at Bel Rae.
The apartment is spacious with high ceilings, a large living room and a full kitchen. There is a washer and dryer in the unit, and a huge roll-in shower. I wish I could find an apartment that nice - ha!
They offer 3 meals per day, and the staff encourage the residents to sit with different people for each meal so they can get to know one another. The staff also help facilitate games and activities, such as fruit bingo (the prize for getting a bingo is fruit, duh.) Shortly after my grandma moved in, they had gathered enough players to play 500 once a week. There is even a movie theater downstairs, and a community puzzle on the second floor that everyone works on as they walk past. They offer a non-denominational church service and a shopping outing once a week.
My stay was enjoyable, and I'm really happy my grandma has found such a comfortable and caring community. Thanks Bel Rae!
