The Connect, Move, and Learn Sequence
The Connect, Move, Learn sequence at The Farrington at Tanglewood focuses on holistic engagement for memory care residents. Residents connect through social interactions and personalized activities that foster a sense of community and belonging.
- Connect: Strengthen neural pathways through emotional engagement and personalized activities, fostering identity and emotional well-being.
- Move: Promote brain communication with cross-body exercises like dance and tai chi, enhancing circulation, oxygen flow, and cognitive function.
