Continuing Care Retirement Communities (CCRCs) are more than just a place to retire – they offer a wealth of health benefits that can help seniors age more successfully. Tony Galvin, AVP of Living Well for Vi, discusses the health benefits of living at a CCRC – a supportive environment, improved physical and cognitive well-being, and a holistic approach to aging.  In this episode, they talk about: The health benefits of living at a continuing care retirement community (CCRC) Living well philosophy and approach of Vi Living to support holistic wellness for residents The value of involving residents in the programming and activity choices to make experiences relevant and motivating for them The role of healthy eating, cooking, and nutrition in supporting cognitive well-being and social interaction for aging seniors Programming and aging well trends that will become popular as baby boomers move into CCRCs The need to provide evidence-based, research-driven wellness programming Memorable Quotes: “Seniors that live in CRCs, in particular, those kind of like Vi that have robust health and wellness programming and initiatives, age more successfully than those that don’t.” “The relationship aspect of what it means to live at a life plan community, at a CCRC, is probably really the cornerstone of why there’s so much benefit.” Resources: Tony Galvan on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tony-galvan-7674b02b/   Find out more about Vi Living at our Website: https://www.viliving.com/   Hosted on Acast.
