Dear Residents and Families,

I hope you are enjoying the beauty and bounty of the fall season. To coincide with the change of seasons, our fall menu is debuting with fresh, seasonal specialties as well as traditional favorites. There is always something new to try!

Cold and flu season are upon us, so please remember to get your seasonal immunizations, which include flu shots. For our visitors and families, we ask that you refrain from visiting if you are not feeling well. Masks are also widely available in all our entities for added protection. These preventive measures really help ensure our residents stay healthy. Thank you all for your cooperation.

The 16th Annual ALS & MS Walk for Living on October 6th in Chelsea was a huge success. One hundred per cent of the funds raised directly impact the lives of the residents of the Leonard Florence Center for Living. Take a look at the story and photos elsewhere in this issue.

Rosh Hashanah was a joyous occasion on our campuses with delicious food, traditional holiday songs meaningful services and the opportunity to celebrate the high holidays with family and friends. Yom Kippur will be a time for reflection, prayers and the sounds of the Shofar. Wishing each of you a very happy and healthy New Year!

All the best,

Megin
