BRONX,
N.Y., July 17, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Centers
Health Care, the largest and most complete post-acute health care
continuum in the Northeast that touches one million lives each year
with 45 skilled nursing and rehabilitation facilities, is thrilled
to announce the return of their popular summer program, "Care That
Moves You," for the second year in a row. Launched on July 6, this initiative will run throughout the
summer months, offering a variety of ways for participants at all
Centers Health Care facilities to stay active and healthy. The
organization will also dedicate a special "Care That Moves You Day"
to coincide with National Senior Citizens Day on August 21.
Following the tremendous success of 2023's Care That Moves You
initiative, Centers Health Care is excited to build upon that
momentum where residents and staff across nearly all Centers Health
Care locations came together to participate in engaging indoor and
outdoor events, and increased their mobility significantly. The
Care That Moves You Day events will showcase residents exercising
and having fun, inspiring not only the Centers Health Care
communities but also the neighborhoods surrounding each
facility.
"For 27 years, our mission has been to deliver exceptional
post-acute care, whether it's short-term rehabilitation or
long-term support, and part of that commitment is making sure our
caregivers are healthy and feel good themselves," said Kenny Rozenberg, CEO of Centers Health Care.
"Care That Moves You promotes healthy habits through exercise and
engaging activities. While designed for our residents and care
professionals, seeing their progress brings immense joy to our
families as well."
Recognizing the importance of social interaction for residents'
mental and emotional well-being, Care That Moves You incorporates
group exercise and movement programs designed to combat isolation
and loneliness. Ultimately, these activities contribute to a
holistic recovery process, empowering residents to return home and
thrive.
"We have always focused on fostering connections within our
communities," said Steve Carr, Chief
Sales Officer at Centers Health Care. "Care That Moves You makes
mobility a priority with engaging activities that promote
well-being and social connection. It's a truly 360-degree approach
that benefits residents, families, staff, and the communities we
serve."
From outdoor carnivals at Corning Center, in Corning, New York, to group exercise sessions
led by local therapists at Slate Valley Center, in Granville, New York, residents throughout
Centers Health Care's facilities will be celebrating "Care That
Moves You Day" by getting active and having fun.
