Resident Success Story: Gerald MartinGerald Martin is our resident success story this month. When Mr. Martin started declining and having trouble with weakness and transferring himself from his
wheelchair, he began physical therapy. With a lot of hard work he greatly improved his strength. He can now transfer on his own, sleeps in a regular bed, and enjoys improved leg strength for mobility when moving around the home in his wheelchair. Great job Mr. Martin! Keep it up!

A Letter from the Administrator:Help Seniors Avoid the Holiday BluesDuringtheholidays,it’sagoodtimetoreflectonwhatyou’rethankfulfor,and chances are, family and friends are at the top of the list. However, it’s very common for seniors to deal with depression around this time of year because of loneliness. Maybe their family doesn’t live nearby or maybe losing their soul mate makes it hard to ask for help. In 2013, a study revealed that a century ago, 70 percent of widows and widowers lived with their children, but that number has since changed to about 38 percent. This is where you can help. Do you have a neighbor who might enjoy a cup of tea by your
Christmas tree? Or, do you have a nursing home by your residence that you can visit?
At Leakesville Rehabilitation and Nursing Center, we welcome visitors to dine with our residents, participate in a fun activity, or join us for an afternoon social. When you see the look of appreciation on a senior’s face for taking the time to visit, it sure makes the holidays even merrier.
Wanda Khan, RNDirector of Nursing
From the Desk of the Director of Nursing:Holiday Feasting: One helping...or two? One interesting statistic reported about holiday feasting is the number of calories a person typically consumed on Christmas Day last year. Are you ready for this? It was a whopping 7,000 calories! Think about that: if one Big Mac has 540 calories, that would be equivalent to eating right around 13 Big Macs in one day. And in case you’re wondering, burning 7,000 calories is no easy task. According to healthassist.net, for someone who weighs 160 pounds, one of the following would be required to shed those
pesky calories: 13 hours of basketball, 16 hours of aerobics, 19 hours of gardening, 20 hours of vacuuming, 24 hours of golf, 27 hours of walking at 3 mph or 48 hours of computer work.Rethinking that second helping yet? Of course, the holidays are a special time of celebration and food is a big part of it, especially in the South because, let’s face it, we are known for superb cooking! Remember, health-conscious holiday eating is not about depriving yourself; it’s really about making better choices concerning portion control and the number of servings. For more information, visit leakesvillerehab.com for tips on healthy eating during the holidays.
