It's National Nursing Home Week!
Nursing homes, this week is your time to really shine! National Nursing Home Week is May 13-19, and the theme of this year's event is "Celebrating the Journey." According to the American Health Care Association, the message of the week is that "every life should be honored, every life's story needs to be told and that every day we have the chance to begin writing a new chapter. Whether the day is filled with comedy or drama, nursing home residents and caregivers are co-authors and leading characters in each other's life story."

The AHCA's website offers a wealth of information on National Nursing Home Week, including sample press releases and a planning guide. To view and download these materials, click on the link to the left. Additionally, you might want to check out the official National Nursing Home Week page on Facebook, which is filled with great ideas on creating a memorable celebration. (While you're on Facebook, be sure to check out our page and tell us how you're celebrating National Nursing Home Week!)
